The Cuban sandwich : a history in layers / by Huse, Andrew T.,author.; Cruz, Bárbara,author.; Houck, Jeff(Food writer),author.;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 153-162) and index.The Pearl -- Sandwiches -- Cigar cities -- Magic cities -- Exile and resilience -- Feast and famine -- Going global."How did the Cuban sandwich become a symbol for a displaced people, win the hearts and bellies of America, and claim a spot on menus around the world? The odyssey of the Cubano begins with its hazy origins in the midnight caf̌s of Havana, from where it evolved into a dainty high-class hors d'oeuvre and eventually became a hearty street snack devoured by cigar factory workers. In The Cuban Sandwich, three devoted fans--Andrew Huse, B̀rbara Cruz, and Jeff Houck--sort through improbable vintage recipes, sift gossip from Florida old-timers, and wade into the fearsome Tampa vs. Miami sandwich debate (is adding salami necessary or heresy?) to reveal the social history behind how this delicacy became a lunch-counter staple in the US and beyond. The authors also interview artisans who've perfected the high arts of creating and combining expertly baked Cuban bread, sweet ham, savory roast pork, perfectly melted Swiss cheese, and tangy, crunchy pickles. Tips and expert insight for making Cuban sandwiches at home will have readers savoring the history behind each perfect bite."--Back cover.

Soon a new future is beginning to form in Lila's mind-- one that would mean leaving everything she ever planned behind. -- adapted from jacket
