The sandwich is one of those dishes that, despite its simplicity, has conquered the palates of millions of people around the world. With its combination of convenience and versatility, the sandwich has become a symbol of comfort and conviviality, capable of satisfying every craving and dietary requirement. But how did the sandwich originate? And why has it become so popular?
The History of the Sandwich: An Ingenious Invention
The history of the sandwich dates back to the 18th century, and as is often the case, it is linked to a historical figure. Its name derives from John Montagu, the 4th Earl of Sandwich, an English nobleman who, according to legend, asked his servants to place meat between two slices of bread so he could eat while playing cards. From that moment on, the "sandwich" became synonymous with a convenient meal, one that could be eaten with one hand while the other was busy with other activities.
Over the years, the concept of the sandwich has evolved, and today we can find it in an infinite variety of combinations, from the classic with ham and cheese, to more creative versions with fresh and innovative ingredients.
