To say that jam sandwiches...

[BearSoFair]

Like peanut butter or Marmite sandwiches, should be made with one slice of bread folded in half and slightly squashed. They just taste better that way. Not two slices and cut in half!

Lighthearted, obviously, after seeing DS make jam sandwiches to take to football and slicing them in half. I obviously went wrong somewhere

This is also more acceptable than halves!

Hm.. I'm not sure what I think about the batter to be honest. I do mine in just egg, and soak it in, rather than dunk it. But I am a huge fan of eggy bread.

My FIL eats marmalade, jam and a thick slice of cheddar. First time I saw it I was shocked.

Now it is my regular go-to home lunch.

*marmalade, HAM and cheddar I meant!

I'm quite tempted by that...everything is better with cheese!

I’m so happy for you!☺️

It needs to be cheese and marmite though.
and a particular kind of white bread.
it also must be strawberry jam

OP, I agree wholeheartedly with your method of making jam sandwiches (one slice, folded, squashed).

But all this thinking has made me realise that following exactly the same method, but folding corner to corner (so a triangle) would be an equally awesome variation. Never tried it but will be doing later on!

In Norway they are very partial to a jam and cheese sandwich.
look up their caramel brown cheese!

Any which way is fine as long as its on freshly opened, thick sliced white Warburtons bread 😋😋

@kateandme , stop now, you are a very bad person

Anecdotally, jam sandwiches seem to be making a comeback at children's parties around here. They're popular with the kids, an easy choice for hall parties and suitable for most dietary requirements (e.g. dairy-free, can make with GF bread). I'd say more than half the parties we've been to recently have had jam sandwiches.

Mwahaha

Why, oh why have I never thought of doing this? You are a culinary genius, @ShinyMe .

Folded sandwiches are definitely the best, but only works with sliced bread!

I’m now wondering though if this could work for Biscoff spread too.I should not have turned into this thread

Agree actually. Folded, rushy jam sandwiches are better!

Didn’t the Queen for at them every day?

Bread and jam was forced on me for dinner every day for years so I wouldn't touch it with a barge pole

Jam sandwiches are nasty little things.

Called a piece ‘n’ jam here. Jam sandwich was a cake

My FIL eats marmalade, jam and a thick slice of cheddar. First time I saw it I was shocked.

@WinterLobelia that is weirder than my DDs choice 😬

Am guessing with jam, cheese and ham the jam is like a very sweet chutney.
Might depend on the flavour of jam I suppose!
