If I’d had some Swiss chees, I could have had a Reubin sandwich – if I’d had some corned beef.
But I did have some Jewish Rye (what makes it Jewish, anyway?) and a couple of Hebrew National hot dogs and some saurkraut and some medium cheddar. It was almost a Reubin!
So… What do you use to make impromptu versions of “name” foods?
For a Denver omelet, I rarely have ham, so I use salami. If I’m out of regular onions, green onions work fine, although I’ve fallen back on a clove of garlic once or twice. Finally, I don’t buy green peppers at all, and not often red or yellow ones either, so I generally chop up a jalapeno or two. Sometimes I use English muffins as the base.
Just to make sure (and I swear I’m not making fun; I really want to know)… Is a “Reubin” sandwich the same thing, or different from, a “Reuben” sandwich?
It’s probably because I just read a comic book related thread, but I honestly was thinking that the OP was talking about the comic strip award and not the sandwich when I opened this thread.
Haven’t you ever noticed that one end is always cut off? I thought everyone called it circumsized bread.
I often make Rolled Chicken Washington. But, instead of a filling, I just bake a potato. And instead of chicken, I use rib eye steak. And instead of frying then baking it, I just grill it.
Same way with Eggs Benedict. I usually just fry the fuckers and douse them with Tobasco.
