“What this engaging book does is take us beyond what’s contained between two pieces of bread and bring us flavors and deliciousness from around the globe. The Book of Sandwiches shows us so many possibilities for reimagining a mealtime staple.”
—BONNIE STERN, cookbook author

“Jason Skrobar is the best sort of friend to have with you in the kitchen. He makes beautiful things, considers every detail, is utterly enthusiastic about the process, and yet is never so rigid in rules that take away from the fun of cooking. Beyond those good feelings, The Book of Sandwiches delivers on flavor, and then some. These are sandwiches at their most creative and generous; Jason elevates even the most basic and pulls out all the stops when the occasion suits.”
—TARA O’BRADY, food writer and author of Seven Spoons

“It’s rare for me to page through a cookbook and want to immediately dive into every single dish, but The Book of Sandwiches did it. Filled with mouthwatering recipes for both classics and true originals, as well as sweet family stories, fascinating historical tidbits, and tantalizing photos, Jason has created a real treasure of a book.”
—CAMILLA WYNNE, author of Jam Bake
