For the ninth edition of our annual Apartamento cookbook, we’re celebrating Sandwiches! Both versatile and scrumptious, these 16 recipes delight with versions hot and cold, open and closed, savoury, veggie, overloaded BBQ, and one classically sweet ice cream treat.

From white bread to the best rye you can find, we are fascinated to learn how chefs spanning a range of countries and cuisines have gone above and beyond to infuse these easy bites with extra deliciousness.
