Pambazo (Mexico)
Pambazo is both the name of a Mexican bread and the name of a sandwich made from the same bread. Its name comes from pan basso, a type of peasant bread that has historically been classified into the lower classes. The bread is usually dipped in a spicy, chili, onion, garlic sauce called guajillo, giving the sandwich a unique bright orange color.
Typically, the sandwich is filled with toppings such as potatoes, mashed beans, avocado slices, chicken, and chorizo sausage, but during Lent, street vendors often replace meat with cheese. Pambazos are particularly popular in the Puebla and Veracruz region and make a great light dinner when paired with a freshly prepared salad.
