"Pasties," a sandwich consisting of a basic stew in a crust, were developed for copper miners to carry to work.
Many older waffle irons feature reversible cooking plates that can be used to press sandwiches.
The sandwich was introduced to America in 1840 in Elizabeth Leslie's book, "Directions for Cookery."
The dugout canoe maneuver should only be performed on hard, crusty breads.
The towering Dagwood sandwich was named after Dagwood Bumstead of the comic strip "Blondie."
Alton: You know, introducing kids to the kitchen isn't only a great way to make their lunch, it's a great investment in their future. One less hurdle for them to overcome once they have flown the coop for good.
Alton: What kind of bread do you think we should put that on? Elton: Something soft, but you know, not too soft. Alton: Hence the saying, squishable spreads go on squishable breads. Elton: Is that a real saying? Alton: It is now.
Elton: Hey, why does everything food have to be French? Alton: Because that's just the way they want it.
Elton: Didn't you cover all of this in your "toast" show? Alton: You watch too much television!
Alton: This is how it starts, you know. I mean, dissatisfied with the sustenance provided by home, these kids are walking right into the clutches of the processed food world. I mean, from here on out, they'll look to drive-throughs for satisfaction and "biggie-size" will be their battle cry.
