The Essential Ingredients
- Deli Roast Beef: Thinly sliced cooked beef that is most often served cold. This cut comes from the round or sirloin. Great for sandwiches, wraps or salad.
- Hawaiian Rolls: Soft, fluffy dinner rolls with a slightly sweet flavor, similar to brioche in taste and texture. The secret ingredient is often pineapple juice, which gives the rolls their fluffy consistency. Popular for their versatility and taste.
- Provolone Cheese: A semi-hard Italian cheese made from cow’s milk with a mild but distinct flavor. It melts very well and is great for making sandwiches, pizza, and baked dishes.
- Worcestershire Sauce: This bold and tangy sauce (and condiment) is a blend of vinegar, anchovies, molasses and spices. It’s packed with umami flavor and used to flavor many dishes.
- Butter: Does it need an introduction? A rich creamy product made by churning heavy cream until the fat separates from the buttermilk. Comes in both salted and unsalted varieties that can be used in a variety of recipes.
