Muffaletta. Made the bread from scratch, used central grocery olive salet. So good.

So.... bear with me. This sandwich has history. My grandpa let me work for the family business around mixers and loaders and dump trucks when I was 12. 16 was the minimum age. When Osha showed up I ha

Had a friend give me some corned beef, kraut, Russian dressing and sour pickles from Kat’z in NYC. Reuben time for dinner.

there is a guy on tiktok using old cookbooks from 100+ years ago doing sandwiches of history. We ate some prety nasty ass sandwiches 100 years ago, but they are still probably better than papa johns pizza.  

Would like some links to that.

Sometimes I wonder what skillset I could bring to the table if I was transported back in time, and I think it might basically break down to cooking.  But then I realize that I would not have all these big containers of Fiesta brand spices to work with and I think that I might end up as a surf shoveling manure..

Man, you don’t actually want those recipes.  I’ve studied an awful lot of 1500 and 1600 books.  

Heres a sample.

He is dry but the sandwiches are interesting. And also kinda gross for the most part.

I cannot emphasize how important the “betwixt every lay” step is.

Yeah. Actually I really like that series. Cooking more than say, pre-1950 was a pain in the ass.

There was a cooking show on British TV that was on BBC America I believe. It was a pair of comedic foodie commentators. They would cook a meal from history, like a Celtic feast from 600AD, or a Norman meal, or a feast from the 1870’s empire. And they had to cook with the ingredients, recipes, and technologies of the time.

Supersizers, I think?

Depending on when and your communication skills--- if you could get one hospital and one major nobleman's kitchen to take your advice on sanitation or hygiene you'd basically be a health wizard and could consult on that stuff.

i didn't know where exactly to put this shit i cooked lately. it was almost all leftovers and random stuff i needed to use up in the fridge, but i thought it might be slightly too highbrow for steel shank...

so check out this leftover chicken parm sandwich 😊

the teeny baguette prolly makes it borderline 'sandwichy', but that's all i had, and ultimately it was betwixt every lay of two pieces of bread 😄

toasted some parm and pesto on the bread...

i needed to use up a bell pepper and some spinach and mushrooms, just chopped it all fine...

False. When you have top tier tomatoes you let them be the star. When you have out of season water boys go head and put a pound on there.

I’ll use the sarcasm tag next time. I agree that great tomatoes need less bacon. That looks like a perfect amount of perfectly cooked bacon. If I have good homegrown im fine with great bread, mayo, tomatoes. No bacon.
