PEANUT BUTTER AND PICKLE SANDWICH



Peanut Butter and Pickle Sandwich image

This sandwich does not necessarily need a recipe, given its simplicity. But it's an unlikely pairing, is peanut butter and pickle, and sometimes that is what a recipe is for -- to prod you in a direction that you never considered. Dwight Garner, a book critic for The Times, makes a strong case for this, his favorite sandwich, calling it "a thrifty and unacknowledged American classic." The vinegary snap of the pickles tempers the unctuousness of the peanut butter, and it's an unusual pantry sandwich for when luncheon meats leave you cold.

Sweet and Spicy Peanut Butter-Bacon Sandwiches image

I craved peanut butter and bacon toast while pregnant. Then I sampled a friend's peanut butter with chile pepper in it and loved it. The little zip made the sandwich better, and now I live on this peanut butter sandwich recipe. -Carolyn Eskew, Dayton, Ohio

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

1 cup chunky peanut butter
Eight 1-inch-thick slices Pullman bread

PEANUT BUTTER AND PICKLE SANDWICH



Peanut Butter and Pickle Sandwich image

This sounds a bit odd but, trust me, it is wonderful! You can use other types of pickles if you wish. I've heard of people who use Kosher dills. Personally, I find the sweet-tart flavor of sweet gerkins blend beautifully with the peanut butter. This recipe can easily be multiplied.
