Taste
The sandwich is delicious. The bread is lighly toasted, bringing forward the natural flavor of rye and cooked oil. The bread's crust becomes more crunchy, while the inside remains soft and chewy. The egg is fried on both sides, remaining soft in the middle. This can be toasted to taste, but it tastes delicious!
The crunchy onions and carrots complement the sandwich.
