The breakfast sandwich is the American morning handheld: a fried or folded egg, a slice of melting cheese and a cooked meat, usually bacon, sausage or ham, pressed into a roll, bagel, English muffin or biscuit and eaten on the way to work. Its reference form is the New York deli bacon-egg-and-cheese on a kaiser roll, ordered with "salt, pepper, ketchup" and wrapped in foil, and its mass-market form is the Egg McMuffin that McDonald's introduced in 1972, a round egg cooked in a ring on a toasted English muffin with Canadian bacon and American cheese. The sausage-egg-and-cheese biscuit of the American South is a third branch, built on a tall buttermilk biscuit instead of bread. Since the 2010s a bakery and café version has grown up around it, with brioche buns, thick-cut bacon, aged cheddar and hot sauce, and the price has grown with it.

The egg decides the sandwich. The deli version is fried hard or scrambled on a flat-top and folded to the size of the roll so it does not spill; the drive-through version is cooked in a ring so it stays round and yolk-intact; the café version is often a soft-scrambled or sunny-side egg with a runny yolk, which eats better but travels badly. Cheese goes on the egg while it is still on the griddle so it melts from below, and the meat is cooked separately and set on top. The bread is toasted or griddled in butter or bacon fat, and the whole thing is assembled hot and pressed for a few seconds so it holds together. The ratio matters: one egg, one slice of cheese and two or three slices of bacon to a roll of about ten centimetres, with the bread thin enough that the fillings are more than half the bite.

Pick it up and judge it in the hand before you bite: it should be warm all the way through, hold together without a wrapper, and show the cheese melted into the egg rather than sitting on it as a cold square. The egg should be seasoned and not rubbery, the bacon crisp or the sausage browned, and the bread soft inside with a toasted face against the fillings. Mark down an egg that is a dry, grey disc or a wet unseasoned pile, unmelted cheese, bread that is cold or has gone soggy under a steaming egg, a roll so thick the fillings vanish, meat that is pale and limp, and any sandwich that has been held under a lamp, which shows as a sweating foil wrapper and a gummy bun. Hash browns tucked inside are a legitimate New York variant and not a fault; a sandwich that needs a knife is.

Sandwich of the Day for the lunch

A beautifully balanced plate—fresh cottage cheese gives creaminess, Parma ham brings depth and salt, and the grilled peaches add a juicy, smoky sweetness. Thick and fresh bread is lovely. The chili honey is a clever touch, tying everything together with a subtle kick. Simple but elevated. Definitely a dish you’d want again.
