On the subject of soggy sandwiches, one easy method to help prevent your bread from soaking up the moisture from other ingredients is to toast your sandwich. You can opt to toast both slices of your bread prior to building, meaning that your fillings will stay fresh, but your bread will be extra crispy and warm (if eating straight away), or you can toast the entire sandwich once made with fillings inside.

I tried it out, and stupidly put the buttered side the wrong way round. The first attempt, which was offered to my wife came out ridiculously dry, however, that was my fault. The second attempt I trimmed the crusts, managed to put the buttered side facing the elements, put a slice of ham and a slice of Gouda and tried it out. It was pretty nice, certainly better than the cardboard one I served up to my wife previously. Although these Sandwich Cages are made by Dualit and for the Dualit Classic NewGen and Dualit other model toasters, they will work in other branded toasters as well. I love a toasted sandwich and I tried it out to see how good a toasted sandwich could be.
