In our little AirBnB we often get spoilt by returning guests who have become like family and they often surprise us with gifts from their part of the world.
This weekend we were once again hosting the bikers, not the leather clad big burly ones; no these were the young BMX riders, quite a treat watching them perform I must add!
They brought us a big pack of Biltong (dried cured meat), dried Wors (made with a typical South African sausage called Boerewors with strong overtones of Coriander and Cloves) and Cabanossi (a Polish delicacy).
I think you could bribe any South African with Biltong, quite addictive!
We picked up a delicious loaf of Sourdough bread from a Chef School in the Valley of a Thousand Hills, about a 25 minute drive from our home.
So my sandwich this week is Biltong, Brie & Avo on Sourdough Bread.
Ingredients
- Sourdough bread
- Balsamic & Onion Cream Cheese
- Avocado sliced
- Baby Spinach leaves
- Curly lettuce leaves
- Cilantro
- Biltong thinly sliced
- Creamy Blue Cheese
Making our sandwich
Firstly spread a generous layer of cream cheese on both slices of bread.
Top with Avocado.
Next on is the greens. and the Brie
Then the Biltong, followed by Cilantro.
Seal with second slice of bread, cut in half and enjoy!
The all important validation sign.
BON APPETIT!
And as usual a quick look for all the busy people:
We're only a week away from @jaybird's Steemit Sandwich Contest Week #100 so why not join the party and bring your sandwich to the SSC table, we'd love to meet you!
You still have a good couple of hours time to enter this week as a practice run, so come along, check out @jaybird's POST and show us your sandwiches!

Were the bikers South African (I think that is where you are?) or from Poland (Cabanossi!).... The sandwich does look pretty nice, I've never had biltong, or any other dried fish for that matter.. I should try it out, I do see it in some of the Indonesian tokos around here... it smells pretty strong, but I guess it tastes pretty good!

LOL, they were mostly South African, surprisingly there were Zimbabweans as well as they also partake in our BMX championships, no Polish though ;);)
Our biltong really is delicious, but doesn't have the strong smell of Bokkoms, which are whole salted and dried mullet which is popular in Cape Town and the West Coast region.

Thank you my friend! I've also been wanting to make my own sourdough bread, but will end up the size of a house ;) Hot sourdough bread and butter is just the best ;)

What a monster! Love brie on my sandwiches too! That cream cheese sounds amazing as well.
You know, part of me was hoping that it was the big burly bikers who love ur bNb. That would have been hilarious 😂

Well we had a team of Darts players one year, and thought here comes our first troublesome guests! They booked for 8 but 11 arrived, late selections we were told by their anxious manager. We agreed to overlook it as it was for a National Competition and out came their camping stretchers :):) They were as good as gold, but they'd have a beer in the hand early morning already on their way to the competition venue! So I learnt again not to judge a book by its cover LOL! Our BMX guests were here at the same time that year and we had many a chuckle!
