A bulkie roll or bulkie is a New England regional variety of sandwich roll. Sandwiches made with bulkie rolls are very common in area delicatessens, restaurants, and institutional food services. Bulkie rolls are larger and firmer than hamburger buns. The crust is usually ''slightly'' crisp or crunchy, but bulkies are not hard rolls. The bread within the roll is similar to ordinary white bread, with a texture that is neither very chewy nor very fluffy, without any yellow color or egg taste, and not noticeably sweet. They are either plain or topped with poppy seeds. They are similar to and sometimes equated with kaiser rolls, but kaiser rolls are noticeably sweeter and often topped with poppy seeds. ==Origin and usage== Examples of menu usage include: *"Two of our handcrafted seafood cakes on a bulkie with lettuce and tomato" *"Roast Beef Bulkie" *"'Piled High' Served on your choice of white, rye, or pumpernickel bread—bulkie or onion roll" Boston writer Alan Lupo recalls that in the 1940s, "in the mornings, my mother ate a bulkie roll and drank a cup of coffee while reading the ''Boston Post''." Lee Shai Weissbach writes of a Manchester, New Hampshire, Jewish grocery store, pre-World-War-II, whose owner was "affectionately remembered for 'the barrel of pickles and the hefty corned-beef sandwiches on bulkie rolls that he dispensed.'" 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bulkie roll」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
