A sandwich is, in its basic form, slices of meat, cheese, or other food placed between two slices of bread. This way of eating must be as old as meat and bread. But the name was used only in the 18th century for John Montagu, 4th Earl of Sandwich, who had sliced meat and bread brought to him at the gaming table so that he could continue to play as he ate. He was a gambler who did not want to be disturbed even for eating. His famous name was easy to remember and it was given to the slices of bread with a stuffing in between.
Soon it was fashionable to serve sandwiches in the European continent, and the word was introduced into the French language. Since that time the sandwich has been included in every cuisine of the West because of its simplicity of preparation, endless variety, and the ease with which it could be taken anywhere.
Any type of roll or bread and any type of food that can be conveniently so eaten can go into a sandwich, hot or cold. British tea sandwiches are made with thin-cut bread filled with fish paste, cucumber, watercress, or tomato. Scandinavian smorrebrod are served open-faced, with skillfully prepared toppings of fish, sliced meats, and salads. In France, hollowed-out rolls are a popular base.
