  • It has been a while since we’ve cracked open theThe New Hamburger and Hot Dog Cook Book of 1968/1970. The reason I used two different years in that last sentence is because the hamburger portion was written in 1968 with the hot dog part being added in 1970. Anyway, today we’re making the Teen-agers’ Special Sandwich. And, given the ingredients, my guess is the author made this for her kids, pressed them on if they liked it to which likely responded, “it’s fine” and thus a “special” sandwich for teen-agers was born.

    By 1968 teenagers were listening to the twang of sitars in Beatle songs. The book's author probably believed that an exotic spice like Cardamom made the sandwich groovy.

    For the re-mix, you could go down the zhug path. Ottolenghi’s zhug has lots of coriander (cilantro) and parsley, chilies, garlic, olive oil, salt and pepper. But the spice profile is cumin, cardamom and cloves. I make some almost every fortnight. If you have never tried zhug, you should,

  • @dacket1128
    @dacket1128 7 дней назад +4

    Three observations: 1) That was a BLOP of Dijon, sir. 2) Remix note: If you divvy up the meat & did a smashburger-face-down situation before assembling, that'd be tasty; 3) Recipe seemed strangely archaic for 1968, like it had teleported from 20 years earlier.

  • @ChristopherMB87
    @ChristopherMB87 6 дней назад +2

    It looks like it could easily be tweaked into an old style slider - steaming the meat and buns on a bed of diced onions, adding mustard and maybe pickles to the bun before assembly.

  • @thebitterfig9903
    @thebitterfig9903 7 дней назад +3

    The spices and fine onions in there remind me of Swedish Meatballs. In which case, a great plus-up might be lingonberries. Tart and a little bitter, whole-berry cranberry sauce might be a more accessible alternative.
    I'd be inclined to cook by baking open-faced, rather than french toast method, however.

    Recipe Remix Suggestions: The Dijon, yes, keep that from the plus up; add a slice of Swiss Cheese or two (panini style); then after being given the French Toast Treatment as directed, pop that in the oven at 350°F for maybe 10 minutes to cook that beef just a little more to at least medium throughout. Serve with a nice dill pickle and maybe some sauerkraut.
