SANDWICH ORIGIN

The Sandwich: An Origin Story Via delicioushistoryblog

Before we get into the Top Secret Recipe, let's first get to know how the sandwich was invented.

  • It was said to have started way back the 1st Century B.C. with Jewish Rabbi Hillel the Elder. He was said to be the one to begin the tradition of putting lamb, mixed nuts and herbs in between two pieces or unleavened bread called matzo.
  • People would use trenchers, or thick slices of stale bread during the Middle Ages. And they use it as their plates for their meat and vegetables. Although often times, the bread was too stale for people to eat, so their give it to the animals instead.
  • But in Netherlands during the 17th century, they started to serve sandwiches the way we actually have them now. They would usually hang beef from the ceilings and would slice bread and butter for people to buy.
  • During the 18th century, sandwiches became the late-night snack of almost every aristocratic family
  • The name sandwich was from a nobleman named John Montague, who is the 4th Earl of Sandwich, who is also the one was always ordering meat between two pieces of bread.
  • And so the people started to say it like, “the same as Sandwich” and the name has stuck ever since. Despite the fact that he wasn't the one who invented it, his name title has gone down in history.
