Tonys Favorite Sandwich Bourdain Anthony Mortadella Reccipe

 



FRIED MORTADELL SANDWICH

Of SAO PAULO - BRAZIL


ANTHONY BOURDAIN'S Favorite SANDWICH


The 5-Ingredient Mortadella Sandwich is an absolute delight for those who appreciate simple, yet flavorful creations. I found the sandwich incredibly delicious, with a perfect balance of meaty and cheesy goodness. The mortadella, crisped to perfection, provides a rich, savory base, while the provolone cheese adds a creamy, melty layer that enhances every bite.





FRIED MORTADELL SANDWICHE w / CHEESE

ANTHONY BOURDAIN'S FAVORITE SANDWICH



Ingredients For Anthony Bourdains 5-Ingredient Mortadella Sandwich

To make this simple sandwich, you’ll need mortadella, provolone cheese, Dijon or yellow mustard, mayonnaise and a brioche bun (or sourdough or Kaiser roll).

To start, heat up a skillet or frying pan on medium-high heat. Once it's hot, add a small amount of neutral oil to prevent the mortadella from sticking. Take 2-3 slices of mortadella and gently fold and clump them together to make three small piles.

Place each mortadella pile in the pan and let them brown and get crispy, which should take about a minute or so. Once they're crisp, flip the piles and add a slice or two of provolone cheese to each. If some provolone hangs over the side, that's even better because it will create a deliciously crispy cheese "skirt." When the other side of the mortadella is browned, carefully stack the piles on top of each other to form one big stack. 

Next, toast the brioche bun in the remaining mortadella grease in the hot skillet. Once the bun is toast, spread mayo on one half and mustard on the other. Stack the mortadella on the bun and dig in.

Some Anthony Bourdain Favorite Restaurants NYC NYNY

 



The FRANCES TAVERN

NEW YORK CITY


Located on the corner of Pearl Street and Broad Street in downtown Manhattan, Fraunces Tavern is a 250-year-old bar and restaurant with a storied past. During the American Revolution, this famous spot acted as George Washington's headquarters (it was also where he famously bid farewell to his troops after they all enjoyed a turtle dinner). Visitors can learn more about the tavern’s history on its second and third floors—the space was made into museum galleries in the early 1900s.




P.J.CLARKE'S - Since 1884




PJ Clarke's

NY NY


P.J. Clarke’s has been serving up delicious burgers in a cozy setting for nearly 150 years. A favorite among Hollywood stars, Frank Sinatra often sat at Table 20 and Buddy Holly famously proposed to his wife here after knowing her for just five hours. In 1958, Nat King Cole proclaimed that P.J. Clarke’s bacon cheeseburger was “the Cadillac of burgers,” and, well, the rest is history.

KEENS

"Home of The Mutton Chop"



KEENS STEAKHOUSE - Since 1885

Over 150 years ago, publishers, playwrights, and producers met and mingled at the renowned Keens Steakhouse before seeing a show. As the story goes, actors from the nearby Garrick Theatre would even come, dressed in full costume and makeup, to eat between acts. Today, the iconic steakhouse is known for being one of the last remaining establishments of the historic Herald Square Theatre District.






PETER LUGER

WILLIANSBURG, BROOKLYN



PETER LUGER STEAKHOUSE - 1887

Situated steps away from the East River, Peter Luger has been the go-to spot for lunch and dinner since the late 1800s. The restaurant started as a cafe and bowling alley by the Luger family and was later bought in an auction by Sol Forman when it fell into disrepair. Forman owned the manufacturing business across the street and realized he had nowhere else to bring his business clients for lunch if the restaurant were to close, so he decided to take over the spot himself. Fast forward decades later, and Peter Luger Steakhouse is still talked about for its juicy burgers and high-quality cuts of meat.







KATZ'S DELICATESSEN

East Houston Street

NY NY



KATZ'S DELICATESSEN - 1888

Immortalized in that classic When Harry Met Sally scene (“I’ll have what she’s having!”), Katz’s has remained a quintessential New York City institution since the 1880s. Starting out as a small kosher deli on Ludlow Street, the beloved establishment has been making delicious corned beef sandwiches, knishes, latkes, matzo ball soup, and more for nearly 150 years.






RAO'S

East Harlem, NYC



RAO'S - 1896

Rao’s has been at its East Harlem location since 1896 and has a menu filled with Southern Italian classics. Known as one of the most exclusive restaurants in the city, this small 10-table red sauce joint is near impossible to get a reservation at. You may have better luck snagging a table at its Las Vegas or Los Angeles outposts.

Anthony Bourdain Grandma Rule

 



Anthony Bourdain



The GRANDMA RULE


Anthony Bourdain was famous for many reasons, not the least of which his extensive culinary travels, which landed him in kitchens and restaurants around the world. He had the best advice for finding great restaurants in any city and many other food rules he swore by when traveling, including the so-called "Grandma Rule." This was Bourdain's catchy term for a respectful bit of food etiquette to use when dining as a guest. In the same way you'd do at your grandma's house, accept the food a host offers without complaint, and even if it's not to your liking, be gracious and grateful to them.  

As seen in an excerpt published in Forbes, Bourdain's memoir, "Medium Raw: A Bloody Valentine to the World of Food and the People Who Cook," expounded on the idea. The famed chef wrote, "You may not like Grandma's Thanksgiving turkey. It may be overcooked and dry [...] But it is 'Grandma's Turkey.' And you are in Grandma's house. So shut the eff up and eat it. And afterwards say, 'Thank you Grandma, why yes, yes of course I'd love seconds.'" Bourdain was known for seeking out foods in the only countries where they can be found, and while it's impossible for absolutely every dish to be to his (or anyone else's) tastes, his respect for the cook -- and therefore, the cuisine -- was always paramount. 

Bourdain was also big on following the advice of locals and trying their favorite restaurants, adding that obsessing over cleanliness or safety can get in the way of having authentic experiences. He also advised travelers to avoid airplane food and arrive at their destination with an empty stomach, ready to enjoy new foods and flavors ASAP. Food can actually taste different while flying, so it's worth it to wait for a more satisfying meal.

Above all, Bourdain preached humility. He believed that being open to new experiences was the secret to living a rich and full life. According to an excerpt of his book "Medium Raw" as featured in Variety, he wrote: "Without experimentation, a willingness to ask questions and try new things, we shall surely become static, repetitive, moribund."
