**37**

Sandwich Score  
out of 100 · rough

Rough, with one move worth +14.

Uncharted, one of six roles, few layers have a partner.

**Holding the summit:** a third role on the board (an acid, a sauce, an aroma or a crunch)

Less salt than almost everything in the catalog.

Each bar is one pillar of the score, 0 to 100\. The tick marks what a sandwich at the summit needs; an amber bar is the one holding this sandwich back.

**soft bread**, served cold: grilled tofu; tangy sauces; veggies.

Much of this build is inferred from the name; the score is a reading, and it stays out of Zafraan's typical score.

Worth a look: ingredient not in the pantry: Tangy Sauce, Mixed Vegetables.

The seven flavor axes of the whole sandwich, each summed across its layers. The shaded ring is the catalog's middle 80%; the small number under each axis is where this sandwich falls in the catalog. A shape that sits inside the ring is in the range most sandwiches live in; a spike past it is where this one stands apart.

## What each layer brings

| Layer                      | Role    | Flavor and texture | Points     |
| -------------------------- | ------- | ------------------ | ---------- |
| soft breadscored as Pita   | bread   | soft chewy         | the frame  |
| grilled tofuscored as Tofu | protein | fat 2 soft silky   | not scored |
| tangy sauces               |         |                    | not scored |
| veggies                    |         |                    | not scored |

Points: what the Sandwich Score would lose if that one layer were left out, everything else the same. A negative number means the sandwich scores higher without it. Flavor runs 0 to 5 on each axis.
