Berry Tempting: Turkey Sandwich With Cherry Compote

Turkey sandwiches are a pretty regular fixture in my everyday diet.

Turkey sandwiches are a pretty regular fixture in my everyday diet. They're healthy, delicious, and versatile. Thinly sliced deli turkey tastes good on all types of bread from focaccia to sliced wheat, and it pairs with almost everything, be it pear butter or barbecue sauce.

One sandwich that's absolutely amazing is the classic Thanksgiving leftover sandwich that joins sweet-juicy cranberry with thick-hearty turkey. This sandwich is beloved by many; but why, then, is it only enjoyed in the weekend after the third Thursday in November? Isn't the combination scrumptious enough to be eaten in the warmer months, too?

Recently I put this idea to the test by throwing together a cherry compote and turkey sandwich. It has all the familiar elements of the classic, but is Summer friendly. Genius! Oh and I forget to mention: it's really good. There's nothing more to say, except make it now.

'Wich of the Week: Turkey-Parm Focaccia

It's been a while since I've visited Estela's Fresh Sandwiches, one of my favorite sandwich destinations in San Francisco.


It's been a while since I've visited Estela's Fresh Sandwiches, one of my favorite sandwich destinations in San Francisco. But when I found out a friend of mine is moving, I insisted that she simply couldn't leave the city without ever having gone to Estela's.

Though I normally shy away from sandwiches served on focaccia, this bread was perfect: pillowy soft and flavorful but not at all oily. What I really loved, however, was the giant mound of shredded parmesan, which gave the sandwich a sharp, cheesy crunch. Find out how to re-create it now.
