Named after Dagwood Bumstead, a character in the Blondie comic strip, this very tall sandwich is piled high with meats, cheeses, condiments, and vegetables for a dramatic presentation. To keep layers from falling over, skewer them on a spindle or with a bamboo skewer. This when broken down actually makes 5 separate sandwiches but the presentation is something else, especially for a football game party! From a pamphlet at my local deli. Ingredients:
10 slices crusty white bread |
assorted fresh greens (green leaf, shredded romaine, red leaf, and boston lettuces) |
1/4 lb monterey jack cheese, sliced |
1/4 lb white american cheese, sliced |
1/4 lb white provolone cheese, sliced |
1/4 lb cheddar cheese, sliced |
1/4 lb oven-roasted turkey breast, thinkly sliced |
1/4 lb pastrami, thinly sliced |
1/4 lb salami, thinly sliced |
1/4 lb capicola, thinly sliced |
1/4 lb pepperoni, thinly sliced |
1/4 lb roast beef, thinly sliced |
