Not gonna lie, I don’t think I’ve ever seen corn featured as a main sandwich ingredient. Yet the good folks who published 1,001 Sandwiches in 1936 said, “sure, why not?” I mean, that is a lot of recipes to pay off so I get it. This is one of those recipes that seems like it wasn’t thought though. Not that the flavor combo is bad but just the technique is odd. And, rather than put it off for another day, I decided to haul off and do a Recipe Remix on it today. Unfortunately, that means I didn’t get a chance to test it in advance. So yeah, directionally I thought it went well. My similar to how technique kinda hampered the final outcome of the original, so too did my technique. Oh well, I’ve got ideas for how to right the ship but that will have to wait for another time. Btw, if you’re digging Sandwiches of History, why not tell a friend? I’d appreciate it.

I've seen that Jacques Pepin corn fritter video.
Your sandwich looks yummy!
Veeeeeery weird. Thanks!
I love the idea of the remix in the same video.
This looks disgusting.
Never thought I’d see the sandwiches of history gets corny
Cream corn rocks!
Chimichurri would cut through the richness of the fritter
Your remix is an improvement. Needs bacon.
Corn fans, may want to add corn relish, to their condiment collection.
Puréed chipotles in adobo as a substitute for the tomato paste would save you the step of frying it, and give you the smokey and spicy together. And/or chipotle mayo for the bun. 🌶️🌽
You've re-invented the corn fritter! Good job!
Some crema and cotija cheese could be a great plus up. Go for an elote sandwich kinda vibe.
Think the original would be better over toasted bread. Like the remix, esp the ground cumin and the toasted tomato paste sauce. Might add lima beans (as in succotash) for some bulk and protein. But you'd have to like lima beans. Yum!
It would be better mixed with mayo instead of tomato juice
The remix sounds wonderful!
A fork?
I’m from Iowa. Does it make sense I don’t like corn?
I was about to suggest maybe making a fried corn patty like a remix on mofongo. Great minds think alike! Maybe bulk up the patty with fried chicharrónes.
+ some cotija cheese crumbles
I have a recipe for a masala toast that has almost all your remix ingredients – corn, tomato paste, cumin, chili powder, cilantro leaves, onion, fresh green chilis, butter, and bread. The only real differences are the masala toast includes cheddar cheese, green chutney, and bell peppers. It’s really good! Your remix will be wonderful as well.
Love the remix, the idea of a street corn fritter likes me a lot
nice job
Shoulda added some beans and or cheese and then broiled.
That recipe must be from the depression era. My mother said they were often just glad to have something to eat. The corn fritter remix recipe looks much more appealing to me. Good job on the spontaneous plus up, Barry.
OK. I'm 25 seconds into this. It is wrong.
36 seconds in and big ole nope from me.
2:10… I'm all in now. It reminds me of a friend Mother's Hoe Cakes. Nicely done.
Wow!
i bet giving that fried corn fritter sando the ol elote treatment would make it next level!
I’d add some sort of cheese to the corn patty too
Corn burger. I might use some risotto with the corn to make the patty. Everybody likes that.
Wish there was a way to give double like for this double sandwich video 🙂
I thought you were headed to hush puppy territory but that looks solid!
CORN!
Coooorn
Might I suggest that upon a reattempt at the corn fritter sandwich, you use cornflour instead of flour and lard or tallow to cook it in? Cornflour should provide some texture and color and mellow, savory notes of an animal fat should meld nicely with the mildness of the corn and onion
i was genuinely scrolling down to comment that i'll be excited for the recipe remix when it comes out. that was a very tolerable wait!
Corny.
Just go full out and make it into a proper Elote fritter sandwich.
Okay hear me out: corn pone Parmesan. Fry a cornmeal patty in bacon fat, top with marinara, keeps the spirit of the sandwich but sturdier and is an actual meal.
And now, my secret ingredient: A drop of my blood. Ha ha!
I really like this channel. And the best thing about discovering a new channel is that I can binge watch the previous vids. Thank you for posting every day.
This demands a re-mix re-mix.
these Depression era sandwiches would be excellent with a plus-up of gold leaf, for contrast.
Looks unappealing
