baguette sandwich

Crusty bread meal

A baguette sandwich is a sandwich made on a baguette—the long, crusty French bread.

The baguette is typically split lengthwise and filled with meats, cheeses, vegetables, or spreads.

In France, a simple version with ham and butter is ubiquitous.

The crisp crust and chewy interior distinguish it from sandwiches on softer bread: I grabbed a baguette sandwich from the café.
