The Second Email We Sent Today, April 30, 2019

Good morning! The first email we send out on a Tuesday is the HMM WEEKLY PREMIUM NEWSLETTER, featuring content available only to the members, supporters, and patrons of Hmm Daily. You are on the Hmm Daily mailing list, but if our records are correct, you not among the members, supporters, or patrons, so you do not get the full newsletter experience. (Emphasis ours). We're certainly glad to correspond with you regardless, but if you'd like to read the complete HMM WEEKLY PREMIUM NEWSLETTER, please join our paying community. Thank you for your interest, and please spread the word about HMM DAILY DOT COM. We also haz Youtube, and we will figure out what to do with it, so go ahead and click the SUBSCRIBE button on that as a completely non-committal way to support our endeavors.


LAST WEEK ON HMM DAILY



RECIPES

We present here for your continued delectation five recipes for sandwiches, hand-picked from The Up-To-Date Sandwich Book: 400 Ways to Make a Sandwich, published in 1909 and now in the public domain. We found another sardine recipe.

ROAST BEEF SANDWICH
Two cups of cold boiled beef chopped fine; add a tablespoonful of tomato catsup, a dash of pepper and celery salt, two tablespoonfuls of melted butter, and a teaspoonful of vinegar. Mix well and spread on lightly buttered white bread. Put the two slices together and garnish with an olive.

PIMENTO SANDWICH
Grind two small cans of pimentos with two cakes of Neufchatel cheese, and season with a little salt. If the mixture is too dry add a little oil of pimentos. Spread on thin slices of lightly buttered white bread. Place two together and cut in fancy shapes.

SPECIALTY SANDWICH
On this slices of toasted bread that have been lightly buttered, place a thick slice of tomato, over top of tomato spread salad dressing, then just a touch of caviare, cover with another slice of toast, and garnish with a slice of lemon.

MOCK OYSTER SANDWICH
Boil salsify until tender, work smooth with a little sweet cream, season with salt, cayenne, and a dash of anchovy sauce; place between thin slices of lightly buttered white bread.

SPANISH SANDWICH
Cut slices of white bread rather thick and toast; trim off crusts and lightly butter. Remove skin and bone from the sardines and lay them on the toast. Sprinkle chopped olives over the sardines and the juice of a quarter of a lemon. Cover with another slice of buttered toast. Serve on a lettuce leaf.
