Chicago Club (1909) on Sandwiches of History⁣

  • Nothing in the recipe for the Chicago Club from The Up-To-Date Sandwich Book of 1909, screams Chicago to me. It does use two different types of bread. But both would’ve been readily available in any big city. On the plus side, there aren’t humdinger ingredients like the Milwaukee Club I did a while back (different book) that called for fried oysters (delicious but whaaaat?) Also, many will notice that the wrong cover flies in at the beginning. That’s what we’d like to call “a mistake.”

    In the Chicago area, we just call giardiniera "hot peppers" to avoid the debate over who's saying it right. Everybody already knows how to say jalapeño, habanero, etc, so we can still call those by name. If you ask for hot peppers, you're getting the peppers/carrot/onion that has been marinated in olive oil.

    I could think of simpler ways to make this better. If it's too dry, smear both sides of the rye bread with mayonnaise instead of dipping the lettuce. Also, I would add tomato because I like tomato on club sandwiches.

    I think I'd have gone a little more mayo and a slice of some kinda cheese. I'm partial to provolone so maybe that. But that's a lot of flavor so possible something more mild like a munster.

      I do eat other meals but they are most definitely not sandwiches. For the most part I record a sandwich and post the next day. Sometimes due to work or travel I'll record a few a day (in which case I only take the initial bite and plussed up bite, then wrap the rest up to nibble on later)

    So when did someone get the bright idea to just use mayo on the bread? I get that commercial mayo is different from home made, but dipping lettuce is just plain weird. I think whoever started putting mayo on the bread should be hailed as the true inventor of the sandwich.

    The dark ages before spreading mayo onto bread had been invented. Sure, it seems so obvious to us now but it's one of those things that's easy to take for granted. There was lots of experimentation back then, resulting in many false starts and evolutionary dead ends in sandwich engineering. Just as Edison is said to have failed 999 times before arriving at a working light bulb, so too did these early sandwich pioneers try all manner of mayonnaise application. There was slathering mayo onto the meat itself. Baked mayo rounds. Mayo-injected bread. One radical innovator, hypothesizing the existence of a sort of primitive mayonnaise consciousness, even tried giving the condiment a stern lecture about applying itself. Yep, we sure have come a long way.
