Sandwiches of history

Another person cooking his way through culinary history.
Barry Enderwick is eating his way through history, one sandwich at a time. Every day from his home in San Jose, California, Enderwick posts a cooking video from a recipe that time forgot. From the 1905 British book "Salads, Sandwiches and Savouries," Enderwick prepared the New York Sandwich.
The recipe called for 24 oysters, minced and mixed with mayonnaise, seasoned with lemon juice and pepper, and spread over buttered day-old French bread.
Rescuing recipes from the dustbin of history doesn't always lead to culinary success. Sampling his New York Sandwich, Enderwick decried it as "a textural wasteland. No, thank you." Into the trash bin it went!
But Enderwick's efforts have yielded his own cookbook, a collection of some of the strangest – and sometimes unexpectedly delicious – historical recipes you've never heard of.
Here is Barry's website, Sandwiches of History:

I follow a YouTube channel called Townsend where they recreate historic recipes and talk about how they came to be.
Fun!

Sandwiches of History’s instagram is fantastic! I really enjoy his banter and also how he “pluses up” each sandwich.
