Spaghetti Sandwich (USA: also as Supageti Sandwich; Setti Sando; Japan: Yakisoba-pan; Australia: Spaghetti Jaffle)
The Spaghetti Sandwich is made of second day spaghetti, a sauce and bread as main ingredients. It may also include meat sauce, meatballs and cheese. The bread can be a buttered garlic bread or a split roll.
History: Nobody can tell with certainty when it was first seen. Many believe that it was created with leftovers of cooked pasta that was sandwiched between two slices of bread . In Japan, Yakisoba-pan is a Tokyo snack found in convenience stores and consists of noodles into a sliced bun often topped with mayonnaise. In Australia, Spaghetti Jaffle features toasted bread, known as jaffle. In the USA, the sandwich became recently popular on social media platforms as many restaurants and chefs feature it in their menus. Chef Elliott Moss cooking at Buxton Hall Barbecue says that the spaghetti is always of the next day. Several cookbooks include the Spaghetti Sandwich recipe.
