Can confirm cheese is not heretical. My apartment is about a three minute walk from Mr. Beef (the filming location and inspiration for The Beef), and they have a provolone option for their Italian beef. It’s my go-to!

@NikoBellaKhouf2 9 сағат бұрын

@@marvelgurl1012you can't go wrong with the Italian beef. The only thing you have to decide is how wet you want the bread. You definitely don't want to order it "dry" because all the flavor is in the gravy. Ordering it dipped means they dunk the entire roll into gravy. The best option (in my opinion) is somewhere in the middle.

I know Matty's a friend of the show, but Courtney Storer is no doubt the one that developed the Italian Beef in The Bear. She's the Culinary Producer and a renowned chef in her own right, and she actually grew up in an Italian family in Chicago.

On bay leaves, maybe there's room they're for another kind of challenge. Try a couple bay leaf reliant recipes, but do a variant without, a variant with fresh bay leaves, and a variant with dried bay leaves. I've heard that fresh bay leaves are a lot stronger than the dried ones most people use, so I'd be interested to see how noticable that is in something.

@LadyRenira 2 күн бұрын

Bay leaves were always joked about on Sorted Food and they finally did do an episode comparing multiple dishes. It boiled down to nothing standout, but it totally rounds out the flavor and gives it that "something" that let them identify the dishes with bay nearly 100% of the time.

@Aerix 2 күн бұрын

My ideal italian beef? Skip the giardineara and go with "sweet peppers" aka sauteed or sometimes grilled green pepper. Cheese on italian beef? Yes, Mozzarella not White American. Marinara? No. I do perfer my sandwhich dipped over a baptism of broth, but both are valid. If you really wanna go extra, most places that serve italian beef will offer a combo option that puts a whole italian sausage in there too.
