Cemita sandwich (W3)

Alternative names: "Cemita poblana"
Place of origin: Mexico
Region or state: Puebla

The cemita is a sandwich originally from Puebla, Mexico. The name can refer to the bread roll it is served on as well.

The "cemita", also known as "cemita poblana", derives from the city (and region) of "Puebla". The word refers to the sandwich as well as to the roll it is typically served on, a bread roll covered with sesame seeds. The bread is made with egg, and resembles brioche. Additionally, the ingredients usually are restricted to sliced avocado, meat, white cheese, onions, the herb pápalo and red sauce (salsa roja). In modern times it has appeared on the streets of New York, Los Angeles, and other cities with Mexican food vendors.

The most popular meat in a cemita is beef milanesa, a thinly pounded and deep-fried piece of beef. Cueritos (pickled pig skin), queso de puerco (pork head cheese), and carnitas (stewed pork) are also popular. The cheese is often panela, a bland white cheese with the consistency of fresh mozzarella. Quesillo, a Mexican string cheese, is also used.

Although the name is the same, there are diverse types of cemitas depending on the region. The cemita of Sahuayo, Michoacán, is a smooth bread, without sesame seeds and including piloncillo. Its flavor is somewhat sweet and very flavorful; usually it is accompanied by a glass of milk, a corn flour drink (atole), or some sort of hot drink. It is not used like a sandwich.

Name

The Real Academia Española says "cemita" comes from "acemite" (archaic Spanish for "bran") which in turn comes from Aramaic, and is related to Greek "semídalis" ("semolina").

Chicken sandwiches (fast food)

While recipes for breaded, fried, boneless chicken descend from Old World recipes (think: wiener schnitzel), S. Truett Cathy's Atlanta-based Chick-Fil-A is generally credited for introducing "chicken sandwiches" to the fast food world. They may (or may not) have been the first food restaurant to make a chicken sandwich. They were, however, the first to capitalize on it. In the American land of hamburgers & hot dogs, this was a pretty daring and brilliant move.

Club sandwich (W3)

---1903---U.S. Senate Bean Soup & Club sandwiches

club sandwich.....

Most food historians agree that the "club sandwich" was probably created in the United States during the late 19th/early 20th century. The where & who behind this classic sandwich remains a matter of culinary debate. The most popular theory contends this sandwich originated in men's social clubs, most notably the Saratoga Club in Saratoga, NY.
...

A "club sandwich", also called a "clubhouse sandwich", is a sandwich with toasted bread.[citation needed] It is often cut into quarters and held together by hors d'œuvre sticks. It frequently has two layers which are separated by an additional slice of bread.
...
One popular theory is that the club sandwich was invented in an exclusive Saratoga Springs, New York, gambling club in the late 19th century.

A study in the United States suggests that as many as 11% of those Americans over the age of 50 are members of the club-sandwich generation - taking on obligations to the generation above them, and then next two layers following. This is more than just a word or an expression - it’s possibly also a snapshot of one of the ways in which the modern world is changing.

Companions

companion (n.)

c.1300, from Old French "compagnon" "fellow", "mate", "friend", "partner" (12c.), from Late Latin "companionem" (nominative "companio"), literally "bread fellow", "messmate", from Latin "com-" "with" (see "com-") + "panis" "bread" (see "food").

Found first in 6c. Frankish Lex Salica, and probably a translation of a Germanic word (compare Gothic "gahlaiba" "messmate," from "hlaib" "loaf of bread"). Replaced Old English "gefera" "traveling companion", from "faran" "go", "fare".

food (n.)

Old English "foda" "food", "nourishment", "fuel", also figurative, from Proto-Germanic "*fodon" (cognates: Gothic "fodeins"), from Germanic root "*fod-", equivalent of PIE "*pa-" = "to tend", "keep", "pasture", "to protect", "to guard", "to feed" (cognates: Greek "pateisthai" = "to feed"; Latin "pabulum" = "food", "fodder", "panis" = "bread", "pasci" = "to feed", "pascare" = "to graze", "pasture", "feed", "pastor" = "shepherd", literally "feeder"; Avestan "pitu-" = "food"; Old Church Slavonic "pasti" = "feed cattle", "pasture"; Russian "pishcha" = "food").

"Food chain" is from 1917. "Food poisoning" attested by 1864; "food processor" in the kitchen appliance sense from 1973.

"companion" is "someone you eat bread with" in the same way that a "mate" is "somebody who shares your meat".

Coney Island Sandwich (W3)

...
A "Coney Island Sandwich" of chicken, ham, or beef? Would a "beef sandwich" be a "hamburger"?
...
15 November 1887, Bismarck (ND) Daily Tribune, pg. 4: For dinner she has probably consumed the second or third quart of beer since morning and a "Frankfurter sausage sandwich".
...
The island has been reached; the crowd is pushing and scrambling to get off; it is a case of every man take care of his own girl, or she will have the wind knocked out of her; so the various girls are grabbed by the elbow and pranced along as if they were bicycles, by which the owner was walking. The first thing to do is to get something to eat. The charm of a "Coney Island sandwich" is that it is the same yesterday, today and forever. It has no infinite variety, and all the custom in the world couldn't stale it. It consists of two hunks of bread with a vicious lump of something (called butter) planted in the centre of each; over this grows something the size of a postage stamp, which may be chicken, ham or beef; then comes a flood of mustard. In eating one, you have to make up your mind to go in for a regular scrap, and unless you have been going through a course of training with your dentist the sandwich comes out first and you are left. It has been described as being a set to between the material and the spiritual, and the material gets the better of it. If you can eat a sandwich, which is as much as to say if you are the woman with the iron jaw, then you realize why so much mustard is used - it's to give you a thirst, for from that point right straight around the island, you have a consuming desire to drink anything from milk or lemonade to beer and champagne. After this you buy a strong of popcorn, or a bag of peanuts, and keep them to return to when you can't get anything else to eat.

Coon's Posterior Sandwich (W3)

Coonass (Coon-ass)

"Coonass" (or "coon-ass") is a term used to describe "Cajuns". The term is used especially in Lousiana and in the parts of Texas with a strong Louisiana influence (such as Port Arthur). Port Arthur’s French Market served a "coonass sandwich" in the 1960s and 1970s.

Some Cajuns used "coon" and "coonass" as terms of endearment, but it can be a strong insult when used by a non-Cajun. Some etymologists derive the term "coonass" from French slang; "coon" has long been in slang use for "black Americans". "Coonass" is first recorded in print in the 1940s.

Cuban sandwich (W3)

History

As with "Cuban bread", the origin of the "Cuban sandwich" (sometimes called a "Cuban mix", a "mixto", a "Cuban pressed sandwich", or a "Cubano") is murky and somewhat intriguing. In the late 1800s and early 1900s, travel between Cuba and Florida was easy, especially from Key West and Tampa, and Cubans frequently sailed back and forth for employment, pleasure, and family visits. Because of this constant and largely undocumented movement of people and culture and ideas, it's impossible to say exactly when or where the Cuban sandwich originated.

It is believed by some that the sandwich was a common lunch food for workers in both the cigar factories and sugar mills of Cuba (especially in big cities such as Havana or Santiago de Cuba) and the cigar factories of Key West by the 1860s. Historian Loy Glenn Westfall states that the sandwich was "born in Cuba and educated in Key West".

The cigar industry in Florida shifted to Tampa in the 1880s and the sandwich quickly appeared in workers' cafés in Ybor City and (later) West Tampa, leading other historians to theorize that the sandwich as now constituted first appeared there Historian Andrew Huse states that "the old 'mixtos' coalesced into something more distinct - the Cuban sandwiches we know and love - an original Tampa creation."

By the 1960s, "Cuban sandwiches" were also common on Miami cafeteria and restaurant menus, as the city had gained a large influx of Cuban residents after Fidel Castro's 1959 rise to power in their native land. The Communist Revolution caused a wave of Cuban expatriates to settle in other locations as well, and they brought their culture and cuisine with them. Cuban sandwiches and variations thereof are now served in various Cuban exile communities in places such as New York, New Jersey, Chicago, and Puerto Rico, among others.

Dagwood sandwich (W3)

Dagwood sandwich---1936---

The "Dagwood Sandwich" was introduced to the American public April 16, 1936. It was invented by Chic Young and featured in his syndicated comic strip Blondie. "Dagwood" was Blondie's affable but somewhat bumbling husband.

What were the original ingredients?

Tongue, onion, mustard, sardine, beans and horseradish. A loaf of bread appears on the table but we are not told what kind of bread he used. It appears unsliced. Dagwood's two year old son, Baby Dumpling, watches his father composes the sandwich. Frame 2: Dagwood asks "Here, want to try a bite?" Baby Dumpling runs in the opposite direction shouting "NOOOoo." Frame 3: Baby Dumpling hides, watching dad eat his sandwich. Frame 4: Baby Dumpling pronounces the sandwich "Poison." Dagwood, still eating while reading his newspaper, replies "Stop saying that." [NOTE: we are transcibing from the New Castle News [PA], April 16, 1936 (p. 17). Some newspapers ran different Blondie comics that day.]

Original 1936 comic strip here. Over the years, the Dagwood sandwich grew bigger and typically included everything "but the kitchen sink!" Here is a Dagwood sandwich circa 1944.

Denver sandwich (W3)

...
It is claimed (see below, in 1954) that Denver restaurateur Albert A. McVittie invented the "Denver sandwich" in Denver in 1907, but the "Denver sandwich" appears in print at least as early as 1903. McVittie (who also served as president of the National Restaurant Association) appears in many newspaper articles before the 1950s, but there is no mention of the "Denver sandwich" in those articles. M. D. Looney (see below, in 1950) is another Denver 1907 claimant. It is also claimed (see below, in 1973) that the "Denver sandwich" was invented at "Denver’s Taber Hotel".

The sandwich was called a "Western Sandwich" as early as 1908, cited in a San Antonio newspaper. A "Manhattan Sandwich" (cited from 1909) contained fried egg, minced ham, and onion.

ham sandwich (W3)

August 31, 2005: ham sandwich

The "ham sandwich" can be invoked as a defense for someone who feels wrongfully accused. This comes from the saying that a good prosecutor could indict a ham sandwich, thereby pointing out that one should not presume the indicted is guilty.

Tom Delay, a congressional majority leader in the United States, was indicted on ethics violations. His colleagues came to his defense by invoking the "ham sandwich" defense. This defense became well known when Delay defender Senator Mike Rodgers confused the public by misusing the phrase when he said "... any attorney knows you can get an indictment with a ham sandwich." Obviously he meant "against a ham sandwich."

...
History

The "ham sandwich" is one of the earliest recorded closed-face sandwiches; by 1850, at least 70 London street vendors offered it. In 18th-century Britain the sandwich was still closely associated with Spanish cuisine, which (considering the especially wide consumption of ham in Spain) may suggest that sandwiches with ham were preferred at that time as well.
...

Hamburger (W3)

A "hamburger" (also called a "beef burger", "hamburger sandwich", "burger" or "hamburg") is a sandwich consisting of one or more cooked patties of ground meat (usually beef) usually placed inside a sliced hamburger bun. Hamburgers are often served with lettuce, bacon, tomato, onion, pickles, cheese and condiments such as mustard, mayonnaise, ketchup and relish.

The term "burger" can also be applied to the meat patty on its own, especially in the UK where the term "patty" is rarely used. The term may be prefixed with the type of meat as in "turkey burger".

Etymology

The term "hamburger" originally derives from "Hamburg", Germany's second largest city, from which many people emigrated to the United States. In High German, "Burg" means "fortified settlement" or "fortified refuge" and is a widespread component of place names. "Hamburger", in the German language, is the demonym of Hamburg. Similar to "frankfurter" and "wiener", names for other meat-based foods, being demonyms of the cities of "Frankfurt" and "Vienna" ("Wien"), respectively.

The term "burger", a back-formation, is associated with many different types of sandwiches similar to a (ground meat) hamburger, using different meats, such as a buffalo burger, venison, kangaroo, turkey, elk, lamb, salmon burger or veggie burger.

Hoagie Sandwich (1925)
...
Unquestionably, the Hoagie Sandwich capital of the universe is good old Chester, Pa., which not only originated the hoagie-hero-submarine, but still turns out some of the finest in the world.
...
JUST FOR THE record, the hoagie or submarine sandwich was invented by the late Mrs. Catherine DiCostanza back in 1925. She and her husband Augustine operated a combination sandwich shop-delicatessen for 43 years at 1212 W. 3rd St. All of the family worked in the shop at one time or another, including daughter Rosie (now Mrs. Rose Wichanski of Westtown), a classmate of mine at Dewey School nine or 10 years ago.
...
Mrs. DiCostanza reportedly made the first "hoagie" at the request of one of the many workmen who visited the delicatessen and wanted to eat a large sandwich right there.
...
Mr. DiCostanza was born in Schippone, Italy, and came to the United States more than 60 years ago. he immediately settled in Chester and in 1925 he and his wife opened their sandwich shop in the front portion of their home.

Ice cream sandwiches

The history of the ice cream sandwich can be traced to Renaissance-era English trifles and 18th century Charlottes, rich compositions of sweet cream and biscuits. Advances in freezer technology made ice cream available to many Europeans and Americans by the 18th century. Old favorites were transformed. Victorian-era cooks / chefs crafted fancy ice cream (molded ice creams with or without cake). They also specialized in cream-filled Victorias sandwich cakes.

Peanut butter & jelly

Who invented this popular sandwich, why & when? The when is easy to document, the why is a relatively simple matter of technology, economics & commerce. The who? Is still a mystery.

Let's start with a quick study of the ingredients. Food historians tell us that finely chopped nuts (especially almonds) were regularly used by ancient cooks in a variety of dishes. BUT! It wasn't until the late 19th century that peanut butter...as we know it...came on the market. Did you know that peanut butter was first marketed as a health food? Ancient cooks also knew how to preserve fruit. BUT! It wasn't until the 15th century that modern jellies/jams/preserves were made. Ancient cooks also made bread. BUT! Sliced pre-packaged bread...the stuff we Americans use today to make our peanut butter & jelly sandwiches...didn't happen until the late 1920s. Interesting, yes? More notes on the history of PB&J ingredients:

• Marmelade & fruit jellies & jams
• Peanut butter
• sliced white bread.

Jibarito sandwich (W3)

The Puerto Rican style "jibarito sandwich" was created at the Borinquen Restaurant in Chicago by owner Juan "Peter" Figueroa. Here's my take on making his famous jibarito at home. The plantain "bread slices" for this sandwich are most easily made if you have a large deep fryer, but it can also be done in a deep skillet with oil. I originally saw this made on FoodTV's "Roker on the Road" (episode "On a Roll"). According to the Borinquen website, these sandwiches are known as "emparedado de platano" in Puerto Rico.

Best Jibarito Sandwiches In Chicago

A "jibarito sandwich" is a unique Puerto Rican dish that originated right here in Chicago. The original sandwich consists of tender skirt steak, lettuce, tomato, grilled onions, cheese and mayonnaise in between two fried pieces of green plantains with garlic sauce spread on top.
...

... The signature dish is the Jibarito, a fried plantain sandwich filled with steak, onions, lettuce and tomato with mayo and ketchup. ...
...

...
Just as Chicago's Italians invented deep-dish pizza, Puerto Rican immigrants invented the "jibarito" ("little bumpkin") sandwich. Instead of bread, jibarito sandwiches are made with chewy slabs of fried plantains topped with garlic.
...

...
History

Chicago restaurateur Juan "Peter" Figueroa introduced the "jibarito" at Borinquen Restaurant, a Puerto Rican restaurant in the Humboldt Park neighborhood, in 1996, after reading about a Puerto Rican sandwich substituting plantains for bread. The name is a diminutive of "Jíbaro" and means "little yokel".

The sandwich's popularity soon spread to other Latin-American restaurants around Chicago, including Mexican, Cuban and Argentinian establishments, and jibaritos now can be found in some mainstream eateries as well.

Word muffoletta

The word muffoletta (and its many spelling variations) cause countless debates and (false) urban legends. Some (non) authorities claim that the word originated in New Orleans; others claim that the word comes from muffo, meaning a type of mold. This FAQ answers the most frequently asked questions about the muffoletta.

The history of muffoletta bread
...
Note: "Sicilians" did not consider themselves wholly "Italians" until after World War II. Thus before 1945, the "muffoletta" was a type of Sicilian rather than Italian bread.
...
One day, the owner of the Central Grocery, Lupo Salvatore - himself a Sicilian immigrant - made an agreement for the Sicilian baker to supply bread to the Central Grocery, which then re-sold the bread to its customers. With that agreement, the Sicilian baker became a wholesaler, and the workers no longer bought their bread from the Sicilian baker but from the Central Grocery, where the workers bought all their lunch ingredients: bread, meats, cheese and salad.

In 1906, Lupo Salvatore decided to combine these ingredients into a sandwich. He decided to use the "muffoletta bread", because of its ability to hold the filling without leaking. To make each sandwich, Lupo filled a muffoletta loaf with olive salad, meats and cheeses; then he wrapped the sandwich in paper; and then he sold it as a "muffoletta sandwich", except that he misspelled the name as "muffuletta". After all, Lupo was a grocer, not a baker and thus not familiar with the spellings of the many Sicilian breads. In any event, even when misspelled, the "muffoletta sandwich" was so much easier to carry that it became an immediate, major success for the Central Grocery.

Note: Muffoletta, muffuletta, muffelata? What’s in the spelling? That which we call a muffoletta by any other spelling would taste as great. (With apologies for Wm. Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, Act ii, Sc. 2.)

Pastrami sandwich (W3)

Etymology and origin

The word "pastrami" was borrowed from the Turkish "pastirma", though the dishes themselves have diverged. Some sources claim an etymology from Romanian a "pastra", "to preserve".

The Romanian specialty was introduced to the United States in a wave of Romanian Jewish immigration from Bessarabia and Romania in the second half of the 19th century, via the Yiddish: "???" (pronounced pastróme). Early references in English used the spelling "pastrama", closer to the Romanian original. The modified "pastrami" spelling was probably introduced in imitation of the American English salami.

New York’s Sussman Volk is generally credited with producing the first "pastrami sandwich" in 1887. Volk, a kosher butcher and New York immigrant from Lithuania, claimed he got the recipe from a Romanian friend in exchange for storing the friend’s luggage while the friend returned to Romania. According to his descendant, Patricia Volk, Volk prepared pastrami according to the recipe and served it on sandwiches out of his butcher shop. The sandwich was so popular that Volk converted the butcher shop into a restaurant to sell pastrami sandwiches.

Romanian Jews emigrated to New York as early as 1872. Among Jewish Romanians, goose breasts were commonly made into pastrami because they were inexpensive. Beef navels were cheaper than goose meat in America, so the Romanian Jews in America adapted their recipe and began to make the cheaper beef pastrami.

The Oxford English Dictionary’s Etymology of pastrami, n. quotes a 1914 advertisement from the Jewish Criterion (Pittsburgh)

Sardines and pimentos ... Pastrami ... Rye bread [etc.]

pinwheel sandwich (W3)

Pinwheel sandwiches

"Pinwheel (aka "rolled") sandwiches" descend from canapes: fancy 19th century finger sandwiches served with tea or cocktails. Checkerboard sandwiches, ribbon sandwiches, refrigerator cookies and other artfully crafted bit-sized presentations are closely related. The earliest print reference we find for "Pinwheel Sandwich" in American cookbooks is dated 1929. It is interesting to note this item is not quite the menu item we know today. In the food world, this is not an unusual occurance. Careful examination of ingredients and method often reveal similar recipes with different names. This method is generally a more accruate way to trace the evolution of a specific dish. Modern-style "Pinwheel Sandwiches" (made with several layers of bread and fillings) surface in the early 1930s. "Tortilla Pinwheel sandwiches" surfaced in 1987.

Ploughman's lunch (W3)

...
Origins and etymology

Pierce the Ploughman's Crede (c. 1394) mentions the traditional ploughman's meal of bread, cheese and beer. The Oxford English Dictionary notes the first recorded use of the phrase "ploughman's lunch" as 1837, from the book Memoirs of the life of Sir Walter Scott by John G. Lockhart, but this stray early use may have meant merely the sum of its parts, "a lunch for a ploughman".

The OED's next reference is from the July 1956 Monthly Bulletin of the Brewers' Society, which describes activities of the Cheese Bureau. It describes how the Bureau:

exists for the admirable purpose of popularising cheese and, as a corollary, the public house lunch of bread, beer, cheese and pickle. This traditional combination was broken by rationing; the Cheese Bureau hopes, by demonstrating the natural affinity of the two parties, to effect a remarriage.

This implies that a "traditional combination" of bread, beer, cheese, and pickle was popular before rationing in the United Kingdom (during and after World War II). In 1956, author Adrian Bell reported: "There's a pub quite close to where I live where ... all you need say is, 'Ploughboy's Lunch, Harry, please'. And in a matter of minutes a tray is handed across the counter to you on which is a good square hunk of bread, a lump of butter and a wedge of cheese, and pickled onions, along with your pint of beer". Only one year later, in June 1957, another edition of the Monthly Bulletin of the Brewers' Society, referred to a ploughman's lunch using exactly that name, and said that it consisted of "cottage bread, cheese, lettuce, hard-boiled eggs, cold sausages and, of course, beer". The Glasgow newspaper The Bulletin from 15 April 1958 and The Times from 29 April 1958 refer to a ploughman's lunch consisting of bread, cheese and pickle.

The meal's rise in popularity during the 1970s has been argued to be at least partially based on a British cultural "revulsion from technology and modernity and a renewed love-affair with an idealised national past".

The 1983 film The Ploughman's Lunch, from a screenplay by Ian McEwan, has a subtext that is "the way countries and people re-write their own history to suit the needs of the present". The title is a reference to the way the supposed traditional meal was apparently used as way to get people to eat meals in pubs.

Poor boy sandwich (W3)

Po'Boy & hot Italian sandwiches--1929---

Po'Boy

The place? New Orleans. The people? Most commonly attributed to Benny and Clovis Martin. The year? Varies, though most agree the name was made popular during the 1929 streetcar strike. Culinary evidence suggests the sandwich predates the name.

"Po'boy". Also "poorboy". A sandwich made from French bread loaves split in half and filled with a variety of ingredients like ham, beef, cheese, oysters, tomatoes, and gravy. Similar to a hero, they are a specialty of New Orleans, where they were originally called "push sandwiches" because the meat was pushed along the length of the bread to save the best parts for last.

The Po'boy was created in the 1920s by Benny and Clovis Martin, owners of Martin Brothers Grocery, who served the sandwich to striking streetcar workers free of charge (other sources say for fifteen cents) until the strike ended. They used up more than a thousand loaves of bread in one day.

Another story says the term is related to the French for a gratuity, "pourboire". Nonetheless, the term "poor boy" for a sandwich goes back to 1875. An oyster loaf is a form of po'boy made with oysters."

...
In order to maintain their promise, the Martins provided large sandwiches to the strikers. Bennie Martin said, "We fed those men free of charge until the strike ended. Whenever we saw one of the striking men coming, one of us would say, 'Here comes another poor boy.'"

In 1916 it moved to Broadway and 73rd Street, and two years later it moved again, this time to 622 Madison Avenue. Three decades after it first opened its doors, Reuben's Restaurant and Delicatessen had a formal opening at 6 East 58th Street with Mayor Fiorello La Guardia in attendance (March 28, 1935, New York Times). It stayed at this location for three more decades until it was sold in the mid-1960s, afterwards moving to a location at 38th Street and Madison Avenue.

sandwich:

Food on a slice of bread or between two slices, eaten with the hands. John Montagu, 4th Earl of Sandwich (1718-1792), an English aristocrat after whom Captain James Cook also named the Sandwich Islands.

Sandwich.

A piece of meat between two slices of bread; so called from the "Earl of Sandwich" (the noted "Jemmy Twitcher"), who passed whole days in gambling, bidding the waiter bring him for refreshment a piece of meat between two pieces of bread, which he ate without stopping from play. This contrivance was not first hit upon by the earl in the reign of George III., as the Romans were very fond of "sandwiches", called by them "offula".

Sandwich-Historie

Das Sandwich ist keineswegs die Erfindung irgendeiner Fast-Food-Kette, sondern entspringt der Fantasie eines englischen Adeligen und zwar des 4. Grafen von Sandwich. Der Herr spielte gern und begab sich zu diesem Zwecke gerne in Londoner Spielsalons. So auch an jenem denkwürdigen Tag im Jahre 1762, als ihn plötzlich der Hunger überkam, er aber vom Spiel nicht lassen wollte.

Der Kammerdiener wurde gerufen und der Graf von Sandwich beauftragte ihn, zwei Scheiben getoasteten Weißbrotes zu buttern und zu salzen, sowie - und das war das Entscheidende - zwischen die solcher Art vorbereiteten Brote eine Scheibe "Roastbeef" zu legen. Die mitspielenden Herren taten es dem Grafen gleich und bestellten ebenfalls das, was der Graf von Sandwich geordert hatte. Fortan nannte man diese Hungerstiller der Einfachheit halber Sandwiches.

sandwich (n.)

1762, said to be a reference to "John Montagu (1718-1792), Fourth Earl Sandwich", who was said to be an inveterate gambler who ate slices of cold meat between bread at the gaming table during marathon sessions rather than get up for a proper meal (this account dates to 1770). It was in his honor that Cook named the "Hawaiian islands" (1778) when Montagu was first lord of the Admiralty. The family name is from the place in Kent, Old English "Sandwicæ", literally "sandy harbor" (or "trading center"). For pronunciation, see cabbage. "Sandwich board", one carried before and one behind, is from 1864.

sandwich (v.)

1841, from sandwich (n.), on the image of the stuff between the identical pieces of bread. Related: "Sandwiched"; "sandwiching".

C’est à "John Montagu, quatrième comte de Sandwich", que revient, en 1762, l’invention du "sandwich". Passionné de jeu, le comte refusa un jour de quitter sa table pour aller déjeuner.

Cultural diffusion includes information and ideas as well as objects, a concept that children may have trouble grasping.

Sandwich Origins

The first recorded mention of "Sandwich" was around 664 AD but there was probably some kind of settlement in Roman times as the site is very close to Richborough Roman Fort (Rutupiae).

The name of the town is, most likely, Saxon in origin, approximately meaning "sandy place", or "the place on the sand". The word "sandwich" as an item of food came into being centuries later ...
...

The Earl of Sandwich & the Origin of the Sandwich

The origin of the word "sandwich" for an item of food may have originated from a story about "John Montagu, the 4th Earl of Sandwich". He didn't really 'invent' the "sandwich" but he may have made it popular.

It is said that in approx. 1762, he asked for meat to be served between slices of bread, to avoid interrupting a gambling game. This story may have been rumour or adverse propoganda, put about by his rivals.

But soon people may have started ordering “the same as Sandwich”, and the name stuck !

I also put up pictures of pizza. woohoo.

Tavern Sandwich

Posted by grantbarrett on May 21, 2011 · Add Comment

A vegetarian from Vermillion, South Dakota, wonders about the origin of a popular loose meat sandwich called a Tavern Sandwich. It’s like a sloppy joe, and also goes by the monikers Maid-Rite and Tastee. Martha notes a diner in Sioux City, Iowa, called Ye Olde Tavern, that claims to have created the sandwich. Still, with food origins, plenty of people lay claim to the inventions of everything, from hamburgers to breakfast cereal. Here’s a list of 8 Regional Foods You Might Not Know.

The sandwich

The modern "sandwich" is named after "Lord Sandwich", but the exact circumstances of its invention and original use are still the subject of debate. A rumour in a contemporary travel book called Tour to London by Pierre Jean Grosley formed the popular myth that bread and meat sustained Lord Sandwich at the gambling table. A very conversant gambler, Lord Sandwich did not take the time to have a meal during his long hours playing at the card table. Consequently, he would ask his servants to bring him slices of meat between two slices of bread; a habit well known among his gambling friends. Because John Montagu was the Earl of Sandwich others began to order "the same as Sandwich!" - the "sandwich" was born.

The sober alternative is provided by Sandwich's biographer, N. A. M. Rodger, who suggests Sandwich's commitments to the navy, to politics and the arts mean the first "sandwich" was more likely to have been consumed at his work desk. From 14 March 1741 Sandwich had a Grisons Republic born brother-in-law, Jerome de Salis. The Grisons, or Graubunden, are well known for their sliced dried meat, "Bündnerfleisch", while its then adjoining subject territory the Valtelline, where De Salis grew up, is known for Bresaola; so the refinement of Salis' native habits to suit card playing in St. James', Westminster could have been a small step for the inventive peer.

Islands named after Sandwich by Capt James Cook

"Lord Sandwich" was a great supporter of Captain James Cook. As First Lord of the Admiralty, Sandwich approved Admiralty funds for the purchase and fit-out of the Resolution, Adventure and Discovery for Cook’s second and third expeditions of exploration in the Pacific Ocean. In honour of Sandwich, Captain Cook named the "Sandwich Islands" (now "Hawaii") after him, as well as "Montague Island" off the south east coast of Australia, the "South Sandwich Islands" in the Southern Atlantic Ocean and "Montague Island" in the Gulf of Alaska.

"sandwich": John Montagu, 4th Earl of Sandwich, died 1792, fond of gambling. The sandwich let him continue to gamble while doing his eating.

...
A "sandwich", of course, is, in its simplest form, meat, cheese or other foodstuffs served between two slices of bread. The "sandwich" is said to have been invented in England in 1762 by "John Montagu (1718-1792), the fourth Earl of Sandwich" (a town in Kent, England).
...

The "Sandwich" — a Word with Nefarious, Blasphemous, and Corrupt Origins

Where did the word "sandwich" come from?

The "sandwich", which is most popular with world-wide eaters, functions as a noun or a verb and usually prefers to have its name pronounced as "SAND wich". Besides the more obvious occupation of being something edible between two or more slices of bread, metaphorically speaking, it also likes to squeeze in between two other people, places, things, materials, etc. For example, he is willing "to sandwich" in an appointment between two other meetings or her car was sandwiched between two other cars in the parking lot.

The word "sandwich" that we use today was born in London during the very late hours one night in 1762 when an English nobleman, John Montagu (1718-1792), the Fourth Earl of Sandwich, was too busy gambling to stop for a meal even though he was hungry. The legend goes that he ordered a waiter to bring him roast-beef between two slices of bread. The Earl was able to continue his gambling while eating his snack; and from that incident, we have inherited that quick-food product that we now know as the "sandwich". He apparently had the meat put on slices of bread so he wouldn’t get his fingers greasy while he was playing cards. It’s strange that the name of this fiend should have gone down in history connected to such an innocent article of diet.

The Earl of Sandwich, the sandwich, and the town of Sandwich

The title, Earl of "Sandwich", comes from Old English (O.E.) "Sandwic", and literally means "sand village", "sandy place", or "place on the sand". The old English "wic" is a loan word from Latin "vicus", "hamlet", which also gives us the word "vicinity". The first recorded mention of the town was around 640 CE.

In diesem Zusammenhang sind die Formen des Landesnamens (Norge, Nori [g], Noreg) bzw. die Auseinandersetzungen um die Änderung von Städtenamen im Rahmen der Wiederherstellung des norwegischen Ortsnamenschatzes (Oslo - Trondheim - Kristiansund - Bergen) sowie „das Schisma zwischen Hofnamen und denselben Namen in Funktion als Familiennamen“ (287), z. B. "Vik" als "Wik", "Wiik", "Wich", "Vig", "Wig", "Wiig" usw., von besonderem Interesse, aber auch gesetzliche Regelungen wie das norwegische Ortsnamengesetz (1990, 2005) oder das Personennamengesetz von 2002 werden von der Öffentlichkeit nicht widerstandslos akzeptiert. Helleland kommt zu dem Schluss: „Namen sind Teil der Sprache und die Sprache ist eng mit der Identität der Menschen verbunden. Gleichzeitig vertreten Namen Referenzen (Grundstücke, Städte, Regionen, Individuen usw.), zu denen die Namenbenutzer besondere Beziehungen haben. Diese grundlegenden Eigenschaften von Namen tragen dazu bei, dass Namenkonflikte auch künftig bestehen werden.“

Sandwich Origins

The first recorded mention of "Sandwich" was around 664 AD but there was probably some kind of settlement in Roman times as the site is very close to Richborough Roman Fort (Rutupiae).

The name of the town is, most likely, Saxon in origin, approximately meaning "sandy place", or "the place on the sand". The word "sandwich" as an item of food came into being centuries later ...

Sandwich (placename)
...
Of course, "Sandwich" was his earldom, and what an excellent question you pose about that name's origins. "Sandwich" is an Old English name deriving from "sand" "sand" and "wic" (pronounced "witch") meaning "landing place" or "port". "Wic" appears in other place names such as "Greenwich" ("the green (grassy) port") and "Norwich" ("north port"). It is said that the "sand" of "Sandwich", however, was not on the beach but was instead in the soil of the area, making it agriculturally rich. Anyhow, though Sandwich was once on the coast, it is now two miles inland.

"Pullman loaves" [aka "Pain de mie", "Pain Anglais", "Sandwich bread"]

Our research confirms straight-edged "Pullman" loaves were served in dining cars manufactured by this company. It also reveals this type of bread existed long before both railroads and the company. The original reason for the perfectly symmetrical squared loaves was to minimize crust. This loaf was the bread of choice for decorative canapes, hors d'oeuvres, etc. Early loaves were made in several shapes in addition to rectangles. Mr. James Porterfield, railway dining expert, states Pullman selected this loaf for efficient storage purposes. This may be true. He also states this is the same "sandwich bread" we see today in our grocery stores. We think Julia Child, James Beard and Prosper Montagne would disagree.

Sandwich Day (W3)

National Sandwich Day

"National" food observances (months, weeks, days) are popular in the USA. They are hosted by different organizations for specific purposes.

National Sandwich Day

In the library world, the standard reference tool used for identifying & researching national observances is a book titled Chases' Calendar of Annual Events. The earliest print reference we find for "National Sandwich Day" comes from Chase's Calendar of Annual Events, 1981 (p. 110). This source does not credit the origination of this day to another source. The entry is presented as fact. November 3rd, generally regarded by moderns as the birthdate of the Fourth Earl of Sandwich, credited for inventing this food. Coincidentally??! The entry for National Sandwich Month disappeared in 1981. Never to return.

...
Sub-species

There are two subspecies,

• Pagodroma nivea confusa breeds on the South Sandwich Islands and Géologie Archipelago.
• Pagodroma nivea nivea breeds on the Antarctic Peninsula, South Georgia Islands, and other islands of the Scotia Archipelago.

They differ in size, and the greater form has a stouter, larger beak.
...
Etymology

The word "petrel" is derived from Peter the Apostle and the story of his walking on water. This is in reference to the petrel's habit of appearing to run on the water to take off. Also, "Pagodroma" can be broken down as follows, "pagos" is Greek for "ice" and "dromos" for "a running course". "Nivea" is derived from Latin adjective "niveus", -a, -um meaning "snowy". The snow reference is probably meant for its white color.

Saunders Island, South Sandwich Islands - Charles Saunders (Royal Navy officer)

South Sandwich Islands

Captain James Cook discovered the southern eight islands of the Sandwich Islands Group in 1775, although he lumped the southernmost three together, and their status as separate islands was not established until 1820 by Fabian Gottlieb von Bellingshausen. The northern three islands were discovered by Bellingshausen in 1819. The islands were tentatively named "Sandwich Land" by Cook, although he also commented that they might be a group of islands rather than a single body of land. The name was chosen in honour of "John Montagu, 4th Earl of Sandwich", First Lord of the Admiralty. The word "South" was later added to distinguish them from the "Sandwich Islands", now known as the "Hawaiian Islands".

Before returning to England, Cook made a final sweep across the South Atlantic from Cape Horn and surveyed, mapped and took possession for Britain of "South Georgia", which had been explored by Anthony de la Roché in 1675. Cook also discovered and named "Clerke Rocks" and the "South Sandwich Islands" ("Sandwich Land"). He then turned north to South Africa, and from there continued back to England. His reports upon his return home put to rest the popular myth of Terra Australis.

Islands named after Sandwich by Capt James Cook

Lord Sandwich was a great supporter of Captain James Cook. As First Lord of the Admiralty, Sandwich approved Admiralty funds for the purchase and fit-out of the Resolution, Adventure and Discovery for Cook’s second and third expeditions of exploration in the Pacific Ocean. In honour of Sandwich, Captain Cook named the "Sandwich Islands" (now "Hawaii") after him, as well as "Montague Island" off the south east coast of Australia, the "South Sandwich Islands" in the Southern Atlantic Ocean and "Montague Island" in the Gulf of Alaska.

Submarine Sandwich (1925)

JUST FOR THE record, the hoagie or submarine sandwich was invented by the late Mrs. Catherine DiCostanza back in 1925. She and her husband Augustine operated a combination sandwich shop-delicatessen for 43 years at 1212 W. 3rd St., in Chester. All of the family worked in the shop at one time or another, including daughter Rosie (now Mrs. Rose Wichanski of Westtown), a classmate of mine at Dewey School nine or 10 years ago.

History and etymology

The sandwich originated in several different Italian American communities in the Northeastern United States from the late 19th to mid-20th centuries. Portland, Maine claims to be the birthplace of the "Italian sandwich" and it is considered Maine's signature sandwich. The popularity of this Italian-American cuisine has grown from its origins in Connecticut, Pennsylvania, Delaware, New York, New Jersey, and Massachusetts to most parts of the United States, Canada, and with the advent of chain restaurants, is now available in many parts of the world. In Europe, it would simply be known as a baguette, or a ciabatta, named after traditional breads long baked in France and Italy.

The use of the term "submarine" or "sub" (after the resemblance of the roll to the shape of a "submarine") is widespread. One theory is that it originated in a restaurant in Scollay Square in Boston, Massachusetts at the beginning of World War II. The sandwich was created to entice the large numbers of navy servicemen stationed at the Charlestown Navy Yard. The bread was a smaller, specially baked baguette that resembled the hull of the submarines it was named after.

Another theory suggests the submarine was brought to the U.S. by Dominic Conti (1874-1954), an Italian immigrant who came to New York in the early 1900s. He is said to have named it after seeing the recovered 1901 submarine called Fenian Ram in the Paterson Museum of New Jersey in 1918. His granddaughter has stated the following: "My grandfather came to this country circa 1895 from Montella, Italy. Around 1910, he started his grocery store, called Dominic Conti's Grocery Store, on Mill Street in Paterson, New Jersey where he was selling the traditional "Italian sandwiches". His sandwiches were made from a recipe he brought with him from Italy which consisted of a long crust roll, filled with cold cuts, topped with lettuce, tomatoes, peppers, onions, oil, vinegar, Italian herbs and spices, salt, and pepper. The sandwich started with a layer of cheese and ended with a layer of cheese (this was so the bread wouldn't get soggy)."

Those living in Eastern Connecticut and Rhode Island are usually told that the name is associated with two facilities in Groton: the US Navy's submarine base, and the nearby Electric Boat Company which built them. This quote seems to support that theory: "During World War II, the commissary of the United States Navy's submarine base in Groton, Connecticut, ordered five hundred hero sandwiches a day from Benedetto Capaldo's Italian deli in New London, where the name "sub" was soon applied to the item." - America Eats Out, John Mariani [Morrow : New York] 1991 (p. 114-5)"

In Sao Paulo, for instance, Italian immigrants have long dominated the local taste for pasta and pizza. Therefore, when Pizza Hut brought its famous thick crust to Brazil, the variation that is so popular in the United States was quick to fail. Similarly, when Subway first arrived, the "sandwich chain" threatened to take over the kingdom that McDonald's had established in 1979. Again, with no formal communication or marketing research to learn what Brazilians wanted from them, Subway also swiftly became a royal failure. McDonald's strategy, on the other hand, was successful because instead of simply importing American burgers and fries, they conducted extensive research to find out variations that the demanding Brazilian population might enjoy. The "Cheddar McMelt sandwich", for example, was actually created in the country specifically for the local population. The guaraná (a traditional Brazilian fruit) soft drink has become a permanent addition to the McDonald's menu and is exclusive to Brazilian restaurants. Had Pizza Hut and Subway listened to their customers more carefully, had they tried to "speak their language," they might have avoided becoming a tropical fiasco.

Sushi (W3)

...
History

The original type of "sushi", known today as "nare-zushi", was first made in Southeast Asia, possibly along what is now known as the Mekong River. The term "sushi" comes from an archaic grammatical form no longer used in other contexts; literally, "sushi" means "sour-tasting", a reflection of its historic fermented origins. The oldest form of "sushi" in Japan, "narezushi", still very closely resembles this process, wherein fish is fermented via being wrapped in soured fermenting rice. The fish proteins break down via fermentation into their constituent amino acids. The fermenting rice and fish results in a sour taste and also one of the five basic tastes, called umami in Japanese.
...

...
Etymology

The Japanese name "sushi" is written with kanji (Chinese characters) for ancient Chinese dishes which bear little resemblance to today's sushi.

One of these might have been a salt pickled fish. The first use of "???" appeared in the face and hand, the oldest Chinese dictionary believed to be written around the 3rd century BC. It is explained as literally "Those made with fish (are called) ???, those made with meat (are called) ???". "???" is a fermented meat made from salt and minced pork and "???" is a fermented fish made from salt and minced fish. The Chinese character "???" is believed to have a much earlier origin, but this is the earliest recorded instance of that character being associated with food. "???" was not associated with rice.

In 2nd century AD, another character used to write "sushi", "???", appeared in another Chinese dictionary of Han dynasty: "???", which translates as "??? is a food where fish is pickled by rice and salt, which is eaten when it is ready". This food is believed to be similar to "Narezushi", i.e. that the fish was fermented for long times in conjunction with rice and was then eaten after removing the rice.

A century later, the meaning of the two characters had become confused and by the time these two characters arrived in Japan, the Chinese themselves did not distinguish between them. The Chinese had stopped using rice as a part of the fermentation process, and then stopped eating pickled fish altogether. By the Ming dynasty, "???" and "???" had disappeared from Chinese cuisine.

Etymology

According to the Real Academia Española, publisher of Diccionario de la Lengua Española, the word "taco" describes a typical Mexican dish of a maize tortilla folded around food ("Tortilla de maíz enrollada con algún alimento dentro, típica de México"). The original sense of the word is of a "plug" or "wad" used to fill a hole ("Pedazo de madera, metal u otra materia, corto y grueso, que se encaja en algún hueco"). The Online Etymological Dictionary defines taco as a "tortilla filled with spiced meat" and describes its etymology as derived from Mexican Spanish, "light lunch", literally, "plug", "wadding". The sense development from "plug" may have taken place among Mexican silver miners, who used explosive charges in plug form consisting of a paper wrapper and gunpowder filling.

Little Tavern Shops was a chain of hamburger restaurants in Baltimore, Maryland, and Washington, D.C.

The first Little Tavern opened March 24, 1927, in Louisville, Kentucky, by Harry F. Duncan. The first Washington location was opened in October 1928 and the first in Baltimore opened its doors in June 1930. By 1937, there were 33 shops open. At the height of the chain, there were almost 50 locations. Duncan sold the chain in 1981. The last restaurant closed on April 29, 2008.

Victoria Sandwich Cakes
Victorian Sandwich Cakes (W3)

Culinary evidence confirms sandwich cakes originated in the 19th century. Essentially composed of sponge cake filled with jams or soft creams, these were popular Victorian tea treats. Like so many popular English desserts, they descended from Renaissance-era trifles. Tipsy cake is a version with alcohol.
...
"The Victoria sandwich, or Victoria sponge as it is also known, was named after Queen Victoria of Great Britain, and seems first to have come on the scene after about a quarter of a century of her reign: the first known recipe for it is given in Mrs. Beeton's Book of Household Management (1861) (although from its placement in the book she seems to regard it more as a dessert dish than a tea-time cake). Essentially it consists of two layers of light sponge cake with between them a filling of jam, or sometimes cream."
...
"Victoria sandwich cake named after Queen Victoria, is a plain cake made by the creaming method...closely related to pound cake. Although sometimes referred to as Victoria sponge cake', it is not a true sponge cake in the sense that Savoy or Genoise are. Usually it is cut in half and spread with jam and/or cream to give a sandwich. The top is usually dusted with sugar."

It is claimed (see below, in 1954) that Denver restaurateur Albert A. McVittie invented the "Denver sandwich" in Denver in 1907, but the "Denver sandwich" appears in print at least as early as 1903. McVittie (who also served as president of the National Restaurant Association) appears in many newspaper articles before the 1950s, but there is no mention of the "Denver sandwich" in those articles. M. D. Looney (see below, in 1950) is another Denver 1907 claimant. It is also claimed (see below, in 1973) that the "Denver sandwich" was invented at "Denver’s Taber Hotel".

The sandwich was called a "Western Sandwich" as early as 1908, cited in a San Antonio newspaper. A "Manhattan Sandwich" (cited from 1909) contained fried egg, minced ham, and onion.

Encounters with Heroes of the English Language
From the Earl of Sandwich to Joseph P. Frisbie

Kurzbeschreibung

How did the Texas cattle rancher Samuel A. Maverick end up contributing his name to the language? What is the connection between a rather unflattering item of clothing and the French trapeze artist Jules Leotard? Which filling did the Earl of Sandwich opt for when he made his great culinary invention? And was there really a Sir Oswald Binge whose week-long feasts were notorious for their excess? "The Reverend Guppy's Aquarium" answers these and many other questions drawn from the remoter corners of the English language, exploring the lives of an extraordinarily diverse range of people who happen to have one thing in common: by chance or deliberately, they have left their names deeply embedded in the language and consciousness of future generations. Each figure has something to tell us about a particular moment of history, or a discovery or invention, whether it's Laszlo Biro and his pioneering writing implement, or Mercedes Jellinek, who lent her name to a certain make of car, or Etienne de Silhouette who, having fallen from grace at the French court, spent much of the later part of his life mournfully cutting out paper shapes. Not to mention the Reverend Robert Lechmere Guppy, fish-discoverer extraordinary. Each life in "The Reverend Guppy's Aquarium" is quirky and often bizarre. Few of them would merit a footnote, let alone an entry, in the history books. But they all reveal that the prospect of immortality is only a fluke away. In an age of instant 15-minute celebrity, that's a reassuring thought.
