Naan Too Shabby

Posted by: Michael Orey on November 07

At any company the full range of one’s coworkers’ talents is often not immediately evident. My colleague Alethea Black, for example, works assiduously on the copy desk to make sure that each and every word and sentence that ends up in BusinessWeek magazine is clear and correct. But we’ve also learned that Alethea is an award-winning writer of short stories. Recently, I discovered something else: She is a brilliant sandwich maker. I had occasion to sample one of her creations, and the sandwich I made myself today was fully inspired by what she made. As with hers, all the ingredients are from Trader Joes, which makes this a one-stop-shopping wonder. The sandwich: pea shoots, apple-chicken sausage and goat cheese on curry flavored naan bread. I was working at home today, so warmed the bread and sausage in the toaster oven first. Deeeelicious. Copy edit that.
