I roasted up a large section of the breast and have been using it mostly in cold dishes and as a last minute addition to porridge. This sandwich, however, was photo worthy. It's one of my buttermilk dinner rolls sliced into three sections; the bottom layer is turkey with creamy mustard and the top is a fried egg with a runny yolk.
In the special features section of the movie Spanglish, Thomas Keller (yes, French Laundry's Thomas Keller) teaches Adam Sandler how to make "The world's most perfect sandwich." It was crusty country bread spread with mayo and topped with bacon, a fried egg, good salt, and lettuce. Simple yet delicious, with the runny yolk as the star. Ever since I watched that I've wanted a sandwich with a runny egg yolk in it. And even though my sandwich was amusingly tower shaped, lacked lettuce, and was on the small side, it made me happy.

The odd tower shape that you so aptly describe is exactly what makes that shot so exciting....It's very editorial...It could be the front cover of a July edition of Gourmet.
I often look at the "food styled" shots and think...Wow isn't that gorgeous, and then...How the hell would you eat it?
Keep up the great shots :)
How do I eat it, you ask? I squished it all down so it would fit in my mouth. It was awesome, and the yolk oozed out just enough.
