We'll be hosting a Super Bowl party tomorrow. So, last week, I started scanning the internet for cajun cooking ideas (go Saints!!). During my search, I stumbled upon this video of a New Orleans' classic: Parasol's Po Boy sandwich. It's a giant sandwich with shredded lettuce & tomato and pickles & mayo and piles gravy soaked meat. I thought, "I can make that."
I started by making two fat Italian baguette loaves. Then I sliced a couple roasts of beefy seitan razor thin, then simmered it in this delicious gravy. The video started with nasty, unseasoned, boiled cow, and added a potent garlicy gravy. But since I don't know how to make nasty, unflavored seitan, I stuck with my suculent, beef flavored seitan and used a smooth, less potent gravy. I piled it on the baguette with some vegenaise, lettuce, tomato and pickle and served it with some collard greens and chips. It was heaven on a bun or, more accurately, heaven dripping down my arm.
Until next time, GO SAINTS.
