How to make a Reuben
How to make a Reuben
In my opinion, there’s not much better than a reuben sandwich. Corned beef, swiss, sauerkraut, and thousand island dressing on marbled rye is a perfect combo, but where did the sandwich come from. Some say the sandwich was created in NYC by Arnold Reuben at his delicatessen Reuben’s in 1914. Others say the legendary sandwich came from a hotel in Omaha, Nebraska in 1928. It is so popular in Nebraska that March 14th is National Sandwich Day in Omaha.
