Working Man's Lunch

[Anonymous No.8506510]

Post a picture of a hearty working-class meal you've eaten recently. The less fancy, the better, but bonus points for not being fast food. Local dishes a plus.

Pic related: Pupusa and pastellito, a pork stuffed grilled tortilla and a meat pie. The cabbage and the red sauce tops the pupusa. Very tasty. Honduran. One of my go-to's.

Well I live in Denmark, we have:
Smorrebrod (buttered bread). It's an open sandwich often made by using 1 loaf of rye bread, thin slices of meat or some other form of protein and some greens.

Picture related, these are made in a butcher shop, the ones people make at home are often less decorated and more simple looking.

Picture here is what people would make at home, when they return from work, or give their kids for school.

>>The good part is that there are literally thousands of combinations for this.
>>The bad part is that it's cold... it's not sold warm, only cold ..so if you want your fish fillet or frikadeller to be warm on the bread, you have to make it at home.

Finn here, we do this and i think all nordic countries do. Do other countries use butter on their sandwitches?

I've got a bunch of those in my neighborhood in different flavors: Salvadorian, Mexican, Dominican. And the corresponding restaurants. If I were too lazy to cook I'd be fat as fuck in short order.

American here, depends on the sandwich. For example I wouldnt use butter on a ham sandwich, but I would if I were making a grilled cheese.

There are outstanding examples like Wisconsin's butter burger but in my experience Americans tend to use butter more for toast or cooking applications, not sandwiches.

Meat pie, chips, peas, gravy. Working class Brit meal. Pretty solid on cold days working outside.

[Anonymous No.8506872]

>>8506822
Amerifat here, looks tasty. Peas aren't horribly overcooked. Hard to tell since the fries have no browning, but I have to assume they're crisp because even a britbong navy wouldn't eat soggy chips. Pie looks equivalent to a 'murican meat pot pie. Would probably enjoy if all my preceding qualifications hold true.

I heavily suspect the butter on bread is to make the bread less soaky while you put meat and vegetables on it and let it stay in a store window for a couple of hours lol They usually cover the whole bread with a thick layer of butter...

For people in private they put butter on their bread depending on personal preference, I put butter on my bread due to nostalgia, and I do it 3-4 times a year perhaps ...while others do it everyday.
--------------------------

All nordic countries have Smorrebrod, but I've only tasted Danish and Swedish. In my opinion the Danes make it better, the rye bread is less sweet, same goes for the quality of stuff like Leveropstej/ Liver pâté ....even the salami .....some of the best salami is actually imported from Sweden, they don't sell it in stores in Sweden though, which I simply don't get.
Sweden have tradition for Smörgåstärta for celebrations and gatherings, which is awesome.

>>8506992
Smorrebrod can be fancy or normal, most of it is cheap as hell to make, healthy and tastes good.

If you buy Smorrebrod from a store, expect the bread to be covered with butter, so it doesn't soak or dry out while it stays in the store window for a couple of hours, with thin slices of veggies & meat on it.

What people make at home is a totally different matter, and some refuse to use butter for health purpose, while others dislike butter or consider it irrelevant.

I cover every sandwich I make with several layers of thin sliced tomatoes, and use butter perhaps 1-2 times a year.. I also don't use rye bread, I use sandwich bread or crisp bread.
