Learning Targets: I can identify sandwich components (TLE_HECK912SW-IIIb-g-12)

Learning Concept:

Basic Components of a Sandwich

1. The Structure or Base- it is the part upon which the ingredients are placed,
consists of some form of bread or dough produce that is whole or sliced.
2. Moistening Agent- is meant to bind the sandwich providing an improvement of
both flavor and texture. It acts as the protective layer between the filling and the
structure, preventing the filling from softening or wetting the bread.
3. The filling- consists of one or more ingredients that are stacked, layered or
folded within or on the structure to form the sandwich. The filling provides the
primary flavor and generally is protein-based. The varieties of fillings should be
carefully selected. The filling can be hot or cold and comes in any form of
cooked, cured meat, fruit, vegetables, salad or a combination of any of them.
