When I was young, before I and my family arrived in the US, my mother had bought carrots home from a grocery store. She was going to cook but I said "chakai" which means wait in Bulgarian.
I wanted to try one of the carrots, though I still had baby teeth, and asked her if there's a way to make this into something you put on a sandwich.
We talked for a while and then eventually as a team, under her supervision I use a grate and a bowl. Then she took a piece of bread and used the grated carrot glop to make a spread for the sandwich. I thought for a bit, since it's just vegetable and bread, that she wouldn't like the taste, so I added "probvai cirene vurho tova" try a slice of cheese on top of this.
The last part was when she cut the sandwich in half, and we both ate the halves of it.
So you see, many vegetables can be made into a spread. One of the most overlooked things is a grate...
From grated carrots all the way to grated pineapple.
It's good for sandwiches.
I don't believe absolutely anyone has discussed this before. And I've never seen, throughout all the countries I've been in, a sandwich with a grated vegetable or fruit as a spread, so I thought I would share this here.
It's just that when a young person eats, they mostly eat soft things, but when grating a carrot this way... makes it soft; more nutrition.
