Finnan haddie (cold-smoked haddock) on bread.
The British cafe fig-and-goat's-cheese sandwich sets jammy fig against chalky chèvre, tied to a real calendar: 'Brown Turkey' figs that ripen outdoors here only in August and September.
Split peppery faggots, balls of minced pork offal, laid in a soft roll under thick onion gravy meant to soak the bread: old mining-town food from South Wales and the Midlands, eaten hot and loose.
The supermarket sticker EXTRA MATURE marks Cheddar at 18 to 24 months: the cure forward, the paste still pliable, the first crystalline grit arriving. A working cheese one rung below vintage.
Chopped boiled egg bound with mayonnaise on soft white bread: the quiet fixture of the British meal deal, lunchbox and picnic, gentle on the tongue and famously assertive in a shared office.
Hard egg chopped and bound with mayonnaise into one body, finished in a bowl before it meets the bread. A British lunchbox and tea-table fixture.
Shortened name; the default egg sandwich.
Egg mayonnaise with peppery watercress leaves; traditional pairing.
Egg with Heinz Salad Cream instead of mayo; tangier, thinner.
Egg and cress is a mild bound egg saved by a sharp shoot: cold chopped egg and mayonnaise lifted by peppery mustard cress, on soft white. The tea tray and the meal-deal triangle, one recipe.
Egg mayo with mustard cress; see tea sandwiches.
The British answer to egg-mayonnaise going dull halfway down: a measured line of snipped chive that keeps the egg bright. Sibling to the egg-and-cress that British Rail once fixed at a twelfth.
The caff plate of egg and chips, folded into buttered white until the yolk breaks and soaks the potato. Carb on carb, cousin to the chip butty and the army egg banjo, eaten fast while the yolk runs.
Egg with melted cheese.
Egg mayonnaise with mashed anchovy or Gentleman's Relish; salty, umami depth to egg sandwich.
Dunlop cheese (Scottish Cheddar-style, milder) on bread.
Duck with orange sauce; classic French-influenced pairing.
Beef dripping (rendered fat) on toast with salt; old-fashioned comfort food.
Crab with both white and brown meat, dressed with mayonnaise.
Double Gloucester cheese (firm, buttery) on bread.
Battered, deep-fried Mars bar in bread; chip shop novelty.
