Sandwiches de miga
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Sandwiches de miga are popular food items in Argentina. They are single or double layered sandwiches, made from a thin white bread without crust, i.e., the part of the bread called "miga". They are filled with thinly sliced meat (especially but not limited to ham), eggs, cheese, tomatoes, green peppers, lettuce, and sometimes other vegetables, even asparagus. Mayonnaise is another important ingredient. They can be toasted or untoasted.
Instead of making them from scratch, most argentines simply buy them at the local bakery.
They are typical tea-time food, along with either medialunas, facturas, coffee, mate and of course tea.
"Sandwiches de miga" is also the title of a song on Pappo's Blues album Volumen 3.
