The Second Email To Be Sent Today, April 2, 2019

Good morning! The first email we send out on a Tuesday is the HMM WEEKLY PREMIUM NEWSLETTER, featuring content available only to the members, supporters, and patrons of Hmm Daily. If you're getting this, and if we configured our email account settings right, you are on the Hmm Daily mailing list but not among our members, supporters, or patrons, so you do not get the full newsletter experience, just saying. We're glad to correspond with you regardless, but if you'd like to read the full HMM WEEKLY PREMIUM NEWSLETTER, please join our paying community. Thank you for your interest!

Hmm Weekly Premium Newsletter readers are now up to No. 12 in our series of 19 Folktales, "The Princess and Her Suitors."

We present here for your continued delectation three more recipes for sandwiches selected from The Up-To-Date Sandwich Book: 400 Ways to Make a Sandwich, published in 1909 and now in the public domain. We cannot help but think this first recipe solves the eternal question of whether a hot dog is a sandwich.

FRANKFURT SAUSAGE SANDWICH
Cut cold boiled Frankfurt sausage into the thinnest slices and place on slice of buttered white or rye beard; run a cucumber pickle through a meat chopper and sprinkle on top of sausage. Place another buttered slice over this.

PEANUT MAYONNAISE SANDWICH
Heat a tablespoonful of butter in a pan and add the juice of a lemon. Season with salt and pepper. To this gradually add a well beaten egg, thinned with sour cream, adding it slowly, stirring the while to prevent it from curdling. When it begins to thicken, remove and stir in enough ground peanuts to make a good spreading butter. In preparing sandwiches of this, cut bread thin, spread with the mayonnaise; and lay between the slices a crisp lettuce leaf. Cut the sandwiches in fancy shapes. Dainty for a noon-day luncheon.

DAINTY CHEESE SANDWICH
A dainty cheese sandwich to serve at afternoon parties is made by placing the halves of an English walnut on either side of a square of cream cheese. Serve on a crisp lettuce leaf.
