Yuuuup! I knew this would work, cause I do this with pasta all the time {just not with canned tomato soup}. My Mom's best struggle meal was buttered egg noodles, cottage cheese, salt and pepper. I called it Polish Mac & Cheese. Poor man's ricotta indeed!
I've done that for years with left over boiled spaghetti (plain, without sauce) for a quick lunch (spaghetti, butter, cottage cheese, sprinkle with grated parmesan).
"Hot something." was my initial thought, but you sold me. It is basically an Italian adjacent grilled cheese. Might hit it with some parm , might use actual tomato sauce, too. Good job.
There is NO WAY I could do this, but I applaud you sir and I'm very happy you enjoyed it! My husband saw you on the national news and I was so happy for you! Love you Barry I hope you get thousands of new subs you looked and sounded fantastic in your interview!!
Wow I thought this was gonna suck. Like I saw the picture and thought you blended stuff with the cottage cheese. But, this is appetizing and innovative. A sandwich that makes sense. I love the concept of putting a topping on top of a closed sandwich. Makes it a sort of quasi open-faced sandwich. I just might make this. Also if someone says they don't like cottage cheese, they're lying. I understand if you walk into a buffet and see a large container of cottage cheese open to the elements that has an unappetizing appearance. But, that's just anything. Cottage cheese is GOATed
I grew up on cottage cheese with canned peaches. I can definitely see myself enjoying this, but it certainly is not a sandwich for everyone lol, thanks for sharing this interesting weirdo
For what it's worth, dairy kugel is a noodle casserole made with egg noodles, cottage cheese and cream cheese and it's delicious. this is coming from someone who doesn't like cottage cheese on its own. The ricotta comparison is spot on.
Ah, the original location is on India Street in SD. You have to walk through the deli, which was there first, to get to the restaurant. Both it and the PB one are still there (along with others)
Yeah, it looked horrible and sounded horrible, and I'm so happy to hear this. I LOVE cottage cheese. I eat it from the container with just cracked bell pepper.
This is a grilled cheese and tomato soup. Honestly what I have gathered is, add cottage cheese to your normal grilled cheese sandwich for more cheese fun. I never thought to put something in tomato soup, I never liked it because it tastes like warm ketchup so maybe that would help me. Great video thanks for the great advice
Surprise of the year right here. That thumbnail looks rank. I guess it makes sense though. Soft cheese, bell pepper, tomato sauce, some kind of starchy thing... it's like a messed up lasagna.
We have a pizza parlor in Ohio called, The Hickory Inn, and it featured pizzas topped with dollops of cottage cheese. As a kid, I thought the idea was revolting, but once I tried it, I was hooked!😊
Second sandwich in a row where caution (i.e. forks and knives) has been thrown to the wind! Also, this feels like a safe space where I can confess to my odd cottage cheese quirk, that being I enjoy it with BBQ sauce mixed in.
This seems really good actually, the tomato soup/sauce with the green pepper, the melted cheese (can I use moz?!)... hmm... A classic that could be reborn in any hipster cafe!
Woah y'all. Woah. It looks like a cat was sick but it's actually just lazy lasagna. Or a grilled cheese and a soup in one step. Mind is blown; heart inspired. These are my favorite ones. Were it seems impossible but it indeed delivers the flavor.
I found myself watching many of your videos as someone who also enjoys peculiar sandwiches. And I thought, "why have I not subscribed?" So I did. Looking forward to more sandwiches in the future. Great videos: succinct, engaging, and informational (as well as inspiring for those with the exploratory palate). Good luck with the book! Also: give onion and peanut butter or jalapeno and peanut butter sandwich a try sometime. Not for the channel, but for your own personal pleasure.
Love to see the Filippi’s representation with the pepper flakes! I used to go to the one in Kearney Mesa semi-frequently. I should go back for lunch sometime, actually..
I went to my Taytos supplier today. They only have prawn cocktail available, which I don't believe would suit your recipe. I hope the shortage of Taytos you were experiencing a few months ago is now over.
I may be late to the part, but visually I find this sandwich kind of upsetting. It sounds pretty good from your description though. I might try this one on my wife. She is a strong proponent of grilled cheese and tomato soup after all. What brand of soup are you using? It's too dark to be Heinz so I assume Campbells?
The thumbnail looks worse than when I concocted my own vomit out of sauce packets at Mcdonalds to get out of work (shout out to the breakfast picante and mayo)
Yes, but on the menu over at A Chez Parvenu, it’s the Grilled Italiano-Amercano, described as “creamy, mild house-made cheese on rustic farmhouse sourdough, served with a seasoned tomato and green pepper dipping sauce” and they charge $22 for it.
