To prevent a soggy sandwich, you'll have to be a little fussy
Most of the time, I embrace sogginess — an overly maligned texture in food, I’d argue. I relish the way the chocolate wafers of an ice cream sandwich yield to my teeth, and how torn bread turns into a squishy, broth-soaked sponge in a bowl of beans. I even love a pie with a soggy bottom; it feels comforting, somehow.
The single best way to avoid a soggy sandwich is to eat it immediately. But that’s not always possible, and with offices reopening and warm weather around the corner, the prospect of a packed lunch is once again looming. Picnics, hikes, day trips, or just a desire to avoid another fast-casual chain salad all mean plenty of opportunities for soggy sandwiches. But according to sandwich experts, it doesn’t have to be this way: the key is mastering both assembly and storage.
. Then — and this is crucial — mind your spread. Things like mustard, ketchup, hot sauce, vinegar, and red pepper spread add moisture to a sandwich, unlike oil-based spreads like mayo, which don’t seep into bread as much.taste, throw those water-based condiments in squeeze bottles and add them right before you eat. You can even go a step further and keep every sandwich element separate, ready to be quickly assembled in the park or on the trail.
Consider the sandwich as a top half and a bottom half, Gollan says. He likes to put wet ingredients on the top half because although they touch the slice of bread, gravity does the job of drawing them downwards and not letting them soak in. He puts dry ingredients like cold cuts on the bottom half of the sandwich. “You’re creating this meat protection layer on the bread, which is going to help stop those juices from peppers or whatever from dripping down onto the bottom base,” he explains.
