Sandwiches Of History: The Cookbook

Ah, sandwiches. They’re everywhere. But what’s the story behind the club, the Cuban, or the hot brown? Through his various social media platforms, Barry Enderwick (@sandwichesofhistory) has been exploring all things sandwich for years. In Sandwiches of History: The Cookbook, for the first time, he has taken the source material for dozens of sandwiches and painstakingly recreated them—staying as faithful as possible to every original sandwich, while providing much more guidance on successfully making each one. From the classics, like the Cucumber Tea Sandwich or The Sophisticated Club Sandwich, to the out-of-the-box, like The Hot Chicken Tuna Sandwich and the Mock Banana Sandwich, Enderwick provides not only recipes, but interesting information and fun facts that pertain to them. 

Chapters on Tea and Snack Sandwiches, Club Sandwiches, Vegetarian Sandwiches, International Sandwiches, Open Faced and Sauced Sandwiches, Sweet Sandwiches

And that’s not all! Barry Enderwick also includes his signature “plus ups” for taking good sandwiches and making them great, as well as a handful of full sandwich remixes. There’s an argument to be made that this is the greatest thing since, well, sliced bread.
