Sandwich recipe, please
Hey guys, would you do me a big favor and tell me your favorite sandwich that can be made conveniently, cut into quarters and stuffed into your jersey pockets for longer rides?
It's gotta be something tasty, or else you won't want to eat it; and made from ingredients you can buy and keep ahead of time, so you don't have to worry about going to the grocery store before you can do your ride. Obviously not a big, thick sandwich; a skinny sandwich, so that each quarter is just a couple of mouthfuls. I'm thinking maybe canned deviled ham and Miracle Whip. What do you suggest? Thanks a lot! retroguy |

Black pudding sandwich - its literally made of blood, plenty of iron for oxygen transport. Its cooked during processing, but you should cook it again - OK hot or cold. Please yourself what you put on it - I usually use chili or brown sauce. |

Cream cheese between two "breakfast biscuits" travels well in a snack bag. Instead of cutting them into quarters, make four. When I had access to a store called "Paradise Foods" I made high-calorie muffins and kept them in the freezer; I can no longer buy powdered kelp etc. for making mixed edible powder. http://wlweather.net/PAGEJOY/COOKBOO...K/COOKBOOK.TXT -- search on "high". I don't appear to have updated the cookbook after learning how to bake them as bars. (The secret is to use a large pan, so that they are mostly crust.) Nowadays I count on being able to buy food along the way, so I need back-up snacks that can be taken on several trips before being eaten. I usually pack a few of Aldi's "protein bars", "granola bars", etc. We refer to all of them as "candy bars", since sugar is the predominant ingredient, but they make excellent emergency snacks. When I want to eat at Tippy Park, I may take bread, a can of potted meat, and other things that keep well, and make a sandwich after I get there. Or I might make a sandwich of just bread and summer sausage or the like, and carry raw vegetables to slice onto it. Oatmeal cookies can be a good meal. Search on "oatmeal" in the same file; make a *lot* of long rolls so that the cookies are very small, and coat the outsides of the rolls with sesame seeds. If you plan to stop to eat, a banana and a bag of nuts provide the right combination of sugar and fat. Bite the end of the banana flat, press one or more nuts onto it, repeat. Dried fruit in a front pocket or handlebar bag is good for eating while in the saddle. If you don't mind leaving a trail of plum pits, fresh stanley prunes are just the right size to pop a whole one into your mouth. Unfortunately, they are available only a couple of weeks a year -- and about seven hundred miles from here. Some dried fruits can be stuffed with nuts. Two almonds in a pitted date, for example. Apricots also have a pocket. -- Joy Beeson joy beeson at comcast dot net http://wlweather.net/PAGEJOY/ |

The sort of rule of thumb seems to be that it takes about 1/2 hour to digest food and transport the resultant glucose to the muscles and a normal Usian diet is probably well loaded with carbos so I'd guess that the usual bicyclist starts out pretty well loaded with glucose. My guess is that for an hour or so one doesn't need to eat at all, but I did carry stuff, maybe a snickers bar or some oreos and in retrospect I wonder whether it was the food intake or the stopping and sitting down, eating and drinking a pint of water that did the job :-) -- Cheers, John B. |

John, food-bicycle isnot 'go for a ride'. Bicycle food is self designed for maxing performance. Cream cheese is not tube eaten let alone eaten as exercise food. After searching cycling food try 'runners food.' |

Obviously not a big, thick sandwich; a skinny sandwich, so that each quarter is just a couple of mouthfuls. I'm thinking maybe canned deviled ham and Miracle Whip. What do you suggest? Thanks a lot! My favorite for rides of less that 5h are home made grain bars that are totally non-sweet. My wife bakes them in large sheets in the oven, then cuts them. We only have a German recipe since this was a hint from a guy in a German bike NG and we modified it: http://www.chefkoch.de/rezepte/14555...sliriegel.html For longer rides I carry this bread made from trub, the residue in the fermenters when I make beer: https://delishably.com/baked-goods/S...sing-Beer-Trub On it I'll have pecorino cheese, brie if it isn't too hot out there, olive loaf, Italian salami. No butter. Both of these recipes have found favor with other cyclists. To the point where one of them now regularly receives a chunk of our various trub breads. They all taste differently depending of which beer they came from. My left panniers on both bikes are 100% dedicated to liquids and culinary items. On really long rides I also carry my old 16oz stainless steel office thermos and fill it with homemade IPA or similar. Park the MTB at a whisper-quiet location with a pristine mountain view, unpack the trub bread sandwiches, pour myself a nice cold IPA. Life is great. -- Regards, Joerg http://www.analogconsultants.com/ |

It isn't that I don't like dates and prunes, it's just that they're usually messy and I don't like riding around with a plastic bag hanging out of my classy jersey...... |
