Yemeni Jews were the first to introduce the concept of serving falafel in a pita with condiments. A 19 October 1939 The Palestine Post article is the first mention of the concept of falafels served in a pita bread as a street food. When served as a sandwich, falafel is often wrapped with flatbread or stuffed in a hollow pita bread,[58] or it can be served with flat or unleavened bread." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Falafel#:~:text=A%2019%20October%201939%20The,with%20flat%20or%20unleavened%20bread.

i'll be 65 next month, and i've been involved in a passionate love affair with sandwiches since i was a mere slider. while watching your first episode in this Sandwich Break-Down series, i had a really delicious sammy made like so: a grocery-store bakery roll (i used garlic ciabatta rolls, but something sub-like would work better. (hey, it's what i had.) they were refrigerator-cold so i heated them up in a 350F oven ~5 min. +/-. when i could handle the bread, i sliced it and spread the bottom, flatter slice with a spiced anchovy paste (The Gentleman's Relish), then scattered torn fresh mint leaves over (be generous; the mint can get overpowered, otherwise). i squeezed a mega-squiggle of Kewpie Japanese mayonnaise on the other slice and spread it, then covered the torn mint leaves and pressed down on it. lift it back up; the majority of the mint will cling to the mayo -- that's what you want. on top of the anchovy paste, now scatter a bunch of torn cilantro, leaves AND stems. top that with spoonfuls of pico de gallo; i used store-bought so i had to doctor it up, like so: more cilantro and salt, 2 Tabasco sauces (Garlic Pepper and Scorpion), grated zest + juice of one lime, and a few squeezes of Kewpie. mix it up per your taste. then eat.

@@thibautmoal9987 - B12 is artificially supplemented into meat, just like other vitamins, minerals, and fatty acids. Meat-eaters and vegetarians are supplementing just as much as vegans, they just don't realize it. Rather than filter our B12 supplement through a carcass or its secretions, we get it directly over the counter. FYI Cows are the biggest predator of the oceans, specifically bc the billions of cattle we breed are fed millions of tons of fish pellets in order to supplement them with Omega fatty acids. Here's another factoid, Big Pharma would go bankrupt if it wasn't for the meat, egg, & dairy industries, 80% of their drugs are given to farm animals who deal with infection and disease on a regular basis. Which leads to another factoid, butchers are known to cut tumors out of meat that gets sold to the public and carbon dioxide is injected into the meat in order to give it that "fresh" pinkish red color, bc carcasses turn grey during tenderizing (this involves allowing bacterial slime to accrue on hung meat, then scraping it off to reveal flesh that's easier for our non-carnivorous teeth to chew).

The Baba Ganoush.......use a little less tahini and add a touch of lemon juice and olive oil, if you want it creamier instead of the juices a teaspoon or two of fresh yoghurt works great. All this together gives a sharpness and freshness to your BG that will keep you wanting to make it every day. Also lil tip, at the bottom of each eggplant is either a slot shape or dot shape. 'Slots' are female eggplants and contain a lot more seeds. Male 'Dot' eggplants are better for making BG because they have less seeds. Gonna try these falafels out on Tuesday.

It's made from a portion of a white loaf of bread, usually the loaf is cut in half so you have two ends. Each half of bread is hollowed out and is filled with curry & topped with a fresh sambal (a salad made with some freshly grated Carrot, diced cucumber & cubed tomato, chopped cilantro & pickled in a mixture of vinegar, water & salt & pepper & sugar). Finally, the bread you took out, is used as a lid to cover the salad. No one knows the origin of the bunny chow in South Africa except that it had its roots in our city of Durban which is a port city in the Natal Province of South Africa. It's somehow connected to sailors from back in the day.

Garlic in the eggplant? Genius! I've done that with roast meats, but it never occurred to me to do the same thing with veggies. If you like a smokier flavor, you can do the eggplant in a cast iron pan until the outside is literally burnt (or under the broiler). Really makes a smokey Babaga... Try making the pita without yeast some time. The first recipe I used was just water and flour (IIRC). A lot of resting the dough, but the puff was just the hot pan (on the stove) for lift. It's not as tender as the yeasted version, but if you're really stuffing you pocket, it holds up much better.

Now my feet are hurting and I dont even like filafel 😂😭. I made for 9 people so it was bigger batch. I saved some dough to make veg pizza for myself. 🍕😍

That looks delicious! I’m presenting awaiting my eggplant to cool so I can make some Baba Ganoush. Falafel is on my list of things to make from scratch.

My mom makes the best "torta de pierna", she cooks the pork in to a garlic, onion, echalot, spices and pineple juice mix, and after that she puts it in to the oven, then slice it and grills it with cheese, put it in to a bread with butter on it, some mustard-jalapeñoish mayo, lettuce, tomatoes and onions

This series is quite ambitious, considering that there is insane amount of variations only for falafel. I usually have this as wrap for example with complete different pickles and sauce. Then there are so many variations of meat based sandwiches in middle east and balkan countries which are all amazing. Now i am not sure if it qualifies as a sandwich, but Turkish gözleme is amazing
@shash33916 жыл бұрын
This is almost similar to the way we make it in the middle east... Although we don't add baba ganouch and that yoghurt sauce... We add tahini sauce with crushed garlic mixed in... The cabbage and tomato is complete clsssic.... Just a little tip... Crush the felafel ball inside the sandwich with a fork just once.... Trust me... This small thing will make it taste 100 times AMAZING! Walaikum-Wasalam. Oh and add hotsauce. Always add hotsauce 😂.

”Toast Skagen”! Probably the best invention from Sweden, period. Really simple, yet so delicious. Just make sure you get some good fresh shrimps (frozen is a big no-no). I’m sure you can find some recipes if you Google it. What I like to do (which you wont find in any recipes) is add a little bit of parmesan cheese ... yum! Cheers from Stockholm.

This is great. And I could probably make some badass falafel now . . . if I had all day to do it, lol. What would really be useful, is a breakdown of the workflow that goes into making these in a reasonable amount of time. When to start what, and how to integrate it all in the end so everything comes out at the right temp/crispness/restedness . . . time management. That's the REAL hard part of cooking.

Don't know if this is a swedish sandwich but it's very common in Sweden, and Scandinavia. It's called "räkmacka", "shrimp sandwich" if I was to translate. You start with the bread, often a dark grain bread, put lemon mayo on, lettuce, tomatoes, hard boiled eggs, of course shrimps, maybe some cucumber, a slice of lemon and some dill. It's delicious!

Great video, but for rookies who may attempt this recipe I need to address 10:15. Don't preheat the pan with the oil in it. The oil with the highest smoke point I can think of is avocado oil and according to the internet its smoke point is 520 degrees. Meaning especially if you use any other oil your kitchen will be filled with smoke (some source says it's toxic I'm not really sure) I'm also not sure if putting it in that hot oven and pan for 3 minutes with be safe or not, but the guy in the video seems fine, so I'm gonna assume it's okay. Just be careful
@ragnarokinVII6 жыл бұрын
Agreed about the oil, that shouldn't go in until the pan is already hot, and typically only about 20 seconds to a minute before you add your ingredients, depending. The pan however is totally fine since it's cast iron.

I mean... Technically it *is* a sammich... "A sandwich is a food typically consisting of vegetables, sliced cheese or meat, placed on or between slices of bread, or more generally any dish wherein two or more pieces of bread serve as a container or wrapper for another food type." But by that logic would a burrito or taco then also be a sandwhich? I know it says bread... But it also says "wrapper". A tortilla is a wrapper.

The tunisian sandwich or tunisian kasskrout as we call it It's made with baguette, hrissa which is a hot sauce with more of a paste consistency, a soft boiled egg or runny yolk sunny side up egg, tuna, olives and the salad (tomatoes, onions and cucumbers ) if u feel fancy u can add a simple dressing to the salad ( vinegar or lemon juice, oil, salt and pepper and dried mint) U can also add some parsley , capres or a pickled lemon for extra flavour
