Nana Recipe Wednesday does Superbowl! French Bread Supreme

by Undercover Caterer on February 2, 2011

Day 3 in Superbowl submersion.

Nana and her friend below seem to be pretty giddy about the whole situation.  What I’d like to know is where I can get a chain to hold my reading glasses like that?

Hamming it up

Today’s recipe for gluttony is French bread supreme.  SUPREME!  People don’t really use words like supreme anymore.

Except for Taco Bell.  And with all of the rumors about their “beef” maybe they shouldn’t make such grand claims.

An easy assortment of ingredients. Except I forgot the Worcestershire.

What I find interesting about this recipe is that it contains no garlic.  You’d think that French bread Supreme would involve garlic but it doesn’t.  It involves green onions.  And mayonnaise.  And cheese.   And Worstershire…I mean Worsteshur….Worchestershire.  Though I bet garlic would be a nice addition if you dared.

Butter first, mayo second.

It’s interesting, this method.  After splitting the bread, you first butter it–and then you add the mayo mixture.  Maybe to keep the mayo mixture from sinking into the bread?  The butter does make a barrier of sorts.

How can something so wrong be so right?

Mmm….butter.  Mayo.  Butter and mayo.

Toasted

Bake it at 325* just until it’s lightly toasted, let cool very slightly and slice it into hunks.

Good with spag, or use for a steak sandwich!

Good, toasty and soft on top with all that topping.  Nice and mild with the green onions.   It’s good.  I don’t know if I would categorize it as ‘supreme’ though.   I kind of missed the garlic.
