Cutting A Sandwich Without Squishing The Insides Out
It may not always work, especially if it’s a mile high sandwich, in which case you don’t cut the sandwich.
Otherwise…
Mayo based salads squish out the most when cutting a sandwich.
Second up is the grilled cheese and deli meat or roasted peppers.
Third is piled high sandwiches, in which case it’s best to insert a long toothpick into each half before you make the cut.
How to cut a sandwich absent the squish?
Using a long broad, sharp knife, insert the knife straight up and down with the tip focused on the center. Saw it up and down with short quick strokes without pressuring the sandwich. Go to the end, then turn sandwich, insert in center again and cut straight up and down again in the same sawing way till you reach the end.
That’s it, works every time in reasonably stuffed sandwiches, as long as you keep that knife standing tall, no slants.
