10 the most famous sandwiches


Hot dog


The idea of putting a hot sausage in a bun and adding mustard was conceived by German immigrant Charles Feltman in 1871. The name 'hot dog' apparently comes from the long dachshund, which also came to the USA from Germany. The immigrant spirit in the hot dog has taken root: in Canada, there is kubie — a hot dog with Ukrainian sausage (here it's written kubasa).


Hamburger and cheeseburger


A round sesame bun with a beef patty, a ring of onion, tomato, sauce, and a lettuce leaf — also an immigrant from Germany. Add cheese, and it becomes a cheeseburger. Both have become symbols of tasteless and unhealthy food. But chefs are getting creative: the price of a hamburger made from the best Kobe beef and Brie cheese in a Las Vegas casino can reach up to $777.


Sandwich


John Montagu, the Earl of Sandwich, couldn't tear himself away from the gambling table even for food: he was served cold meat between two slices of bread. It can be made with anything, but the real one, like Miss Marple's, is on crustless bread with cucumber. The club sandwich, several layers high, also originated in a gambling hall, but in the USA.


Shawarma


It is also known as doner kebab, and some call it the Greek sandwich gyros, although the origin of shawarma is Turkish. Thin slices of grilled lamb (chicken, veal, but definitely not pork, which is forbidden in Islam) are roasted on a vertical grill. It is said that it was invented in the 19th century by Iskander Efendi from the city of Bursa.


Croque Monsieur and Croque Madame


In any Parisian café, you will be offered a gratin (with baked cheese) sandwich with ham and cheese — croque monsieur. Such sandwiches are ordered for the narrator's hero by Madame Vilparizi in 'Under the Shade of Young Girls in Bloom'. A fried egg is added to the croque madame (in memory of women's hats of that time).


Fajitas


Mexican cowboys on Texas ranches used to eat pieces of steak called fajita, affectionately known as fajita. Now the meat is wrapped in a Mexican wheat or corn tortilla, with added chopped lettuce, tomatoes, chili peppers, and guacamole (avocado sauce).


Pan-bagnat


A round roll soaked in olive oil and rubbed with garlic, filled with tuna (canned is fine if drained), hard-boiled egg, onion, small olives, and salad was taken to sea by fishermen from Nice. It's the best option for the road: pan-bagnat only gets tastier the next day.


Kasskroute


A Tunisian sandwich, similar in content to pan-bagnat, but on 'Italian' bread, which has a lot of white crumb, and topped with sesame seeds. The filling includes harissa (spicy chili paste) and salted lemon zest.


Panini


An Italian sandwich that is pressed tightly with a grill lid. This leaves appetizing stripes on the crust, and the cheese inside melts.


Sandwich


The sandwich is a Russian invention (the classic one is with butter and doctor sausage), but it has brothers and sisters in many countries. For example, the French tartine, a version of the sandwich with jam. The French even use this word to refer to the sharp sign. Two strokes along the bread — butter, two across — jam.
