Prototype

Last weekend, I prototyped my Sandwich Trivet with the most dangerously susceptible hot sandwich: Egg in a Hole. Done properly, Egg in a Hole can be a crunchy delight. But leave it on a place and let that condensation build up, and you have a floppy hot egg thing.

The prototype involved a high-rimmed plate and several chopsticks laid across in parallel. The sandwich was made and placed on the sticks, and lo, as it cooled, it retained crispness. Plus it cooled evenly on both sides. Yes, the Trivet must be made.

By the way, I fully acknowledge that I am insane.
