The quiver in his voice when he said this is one of the best sandwiches he's ever had. I FELT THAT. Making for Christmas Eve 🎄

St. Pauls where in St. Louis way before the '80's. I'm 65 and had St. Pauls when I was a child in the 60's. Everything else you said was totally correct. Thank you for sharing a little bit of St. Louis with the world.

St Paul Sandwiches brings back so many memories! Bing Lau's Chop Suey in North St. Louis was one of the first restaurants that sold these sandwiches as well as egg foo young back in the early 1970's. Anyone remember that place. Please comment if you do!!

@freddsims648 Год назад

Though it was browner than what I'm used to seeing for a St. Paul, Idon't think that it's burnt. And the meat is typically cut into smaller pieces.

@skippymagrue 2 года назад

When I was a kid, my mom would make quiche and I couldn't eat it. It would make me gag and it always smelled so good, but the taste was just awful. After I grew up, and not having been forced to eat quiche in a while, I made some. It was wonderfully delicious! I called my mom to apologize for not eating hers and she asked how I made it. I told her and she said, "What about onion?" I said I don't like onion so I didn't put any in. That was the day I found out that I can't do eggs with onions. Also ham. I don't like eggs and ham, normal colored or green. This looks awesome. Someday I will make it without the onions and ham.

@beccaclayton9316 Год назад

You can use any meat you like….typically in STL, it’s chicken, ham, pork, shrimp or beef. We always add cornstarch to the batter to make it fluffier and some soy sauce as well. They’re literally scrumptious!!!

@roy4091 Год назад

@beeragainsthumanity1420 2 года назад

Would definitely grill or toast that bread.

@richardgrumbine4867 Год назад

I agree that might be a good idea… though it would not be a "traditional" St Paul… I have also made them with whole Wheat bread which is also not traditional… I suspect the sandwich is too soft for anything hard grilled… so I would do it lightly… just my 2 cents… I ate these all the time in St. Louis… almost always they are served on Wonder Bread… go figure… but perhaps there is a reason.. .

@freddsims648 Год назад

The white bread absorbs the juices better than toasted bread and gives it a different texture and taste than with a toasted bread. Also, the more flimsy white bread somewhat molds itself around the egg portion.

@mauricewoods5560 2 месяца назад

I would toast the bread and dip the egg foo young in gravy before assembling the sandwich.

Egg Foo Young... haven't heard that dish name in years. It was one of this concoctions that I used to see in Chinese restaurants way back when. It always seemed to me like a dish that Chinese cooks made to appeal to American tastes, before American tastes became more global. I guess the St. Paul sandwich is another adaptation, Americanized even further. If it tastes good, who cares.

A large number of the most popular dishes sold in American Chinese restaurants are dishes that were adapted to American tastes decades ago.

@smileawhile3788 2 года назад

@@GaelinW yes, of course it's an American 'adaptatiin'. It's a sandwich on white bread 😊 I don't think anyone who goes for a St. Paul ever confuses one with authentic Chinese cuisine. It's just a popular 'fusion' sandwich that tastes great ( and the only time I would ever personally eat white bread).

@GaelinW 2 года назад

St Louis = St. Paul sandwiches, toasted ravioli, Imo's pizza and St Louis BBQ ribs. Had 1st St Paul in the late 60s.😋 Always amused the "classic" uses white Wonder Bread! So Chinese 😂 In the late 70s there was a great little restaurant next door so I had St Paul Sandwiches almost every day. They were really inexpensive too so I could afford that. I haven't found anywhere yet that makes Toasted ravioli or Imo's pizza like they're made in St Louis. Anywhere else they're just poor imitation. I haven't seen St Paul Sandwiches anywhere but St Louis. Btw, it was "cooked up" in the 1940s in St Louis city. ru-vid.comQDJetcwhW5Y?si=SrG3ANj_sGgNvACm
