"Many of the ingredients will come as no surprise - including turkey, cranberry sauce, and sweet potatoes. However, other additions are slightly more unusual. According to Professor Spence, a zest of orange will help to take your sub to the next level. Speaking to the Daily Mail, he advised: 'I would zest a little orange on top to enhance the aromatic notes in our sandwich.'"
"As with any good sandwich, Professor Spence's recipe begins with bread - in this case, pumpkin seed slices. While many people like to remove the crusts, the scientist advises against this. '[Use] pumpkin seed slides of bread (crust on) so you keep seeded exterior, preferably a good orange colour,' he explained to the Daily Mail. 'Research suggests we like autumnal colours of the golden orange.'"
The ideal Thanksgiving leftover sandwich uses pumpkin-seed bread with the crust on to retain the seeded exterior and an appealing golden-orange color. Darker leg meat is preferred because it offers more flavor than breast. A generous layer of cranberry sauce provides acidity and color; homemade cranberry sauce is preferable for higher acidity to cut through fat. A light orange zest on top enhances aromatic notes. Fresh ginger and a pinch of nutmeg introduce winter-warming spice that complements the turkey and cranberry, creating a balanced, aromatic, and seasonally appropriate sandwich.
