6 Tasty Sandwiches from Jacques Pepin | Today's Gourmet | KQED

Video Description

If you've graduated from grilled cheese and you're looking for a sandwich glow-up, you've come to the right place. Jacques Pepin kicks off this episode of Today's Gourmet by teaching us how to make our own bread (1:00) for a crusty and delightful open-face sandwich made with tomato, olives, cilantro, olive oil, and parmesan (7:05). Next you'll learn how to make your own sun dried tomatoes (10:17) to use in Jacques' eggplant sandwich (12:57). Then Jacques recreates his friend James Beard's signature onion sandwich (15:47), a round sandwich with basted edges rolled in a chopped parsley mixture. Jacques' pan bagnat is the Godzilla of sandwiches (18:04) using an entire loaf of bread and layered with tomato, green pepper, olives, basil, anchovy, garlic, cucumber, onion, and cracked pepper. Pan bagnat means "bathed bread" and this sandwich is finished by being wrapped, pressed, and stored in the fridge overnight to marinate in its juices. The episode wraps up with a salmon and hot pepper sandwich (22:39) and a sweet jam sandwich served on pound cake and cut into cute shapes that kids will love.
