Enigmatic, simple yet outstandingly effective
Let's start of by saying I've tried a lot of sandwiches from TESCO, a lot. Therefore I can reassure you that I am speaking with an informed taste pallet and plenty of experience. Upon first glance this may seem a relatively weak sandwich, relatively plain with a bit of mustard slabbed on. But I can only reiterate that there is so much to be found here. The beauty lies in the simplicity. All Tesco sandwiches have this beautiful, brown bread which is soft yet firm and adds character to every sandwich in the range. The ham in Tesco sandwiches speaks for itself; wonderful. However I kid you not when I say this sandwich is PACKED, and I mean packed, with ham. At least in most instances. This packing of ham not only allows for great taste but also great texture as you delve in and bite down on this behemoth of a sandwich. However, this packing of ham doesn't prevent the mustard from making it's presence known, no in fact it welcomes the mustard. The mustard is where the flavour really lies, it in itself has gorgeous flavours and a wealth of texture and yet I should note doesn't make the bread soggy. The mustard releases the ham's flavours and pushes it to it's limits. As you bite in you are on a safari effectively, rummaging through different terrains and meeting different textures and flavours and they caress your taste buds. Overall, this sandwich is packed with character, flavour and I highly recommend it, this may just change your opinion on mustard as a whole. The simplicity of the two flavours prevent cramping and create a match made in heaven, like me and Evy :)
