Yes you can buy something called browning to darken the rice. Still use soy sauce for taste becareful with the browning you only need about a cap full the bottle dose not have a pour proof sprout soon watch it but it will give you that color.
Darn right you do. I used to go to a little hole in the wall place on Delmar when I was in college and I'd order them all the time. I want to go back down and stuff my face full of them until I burst, or have a heart attack, whichever comes first.
I worked downtown St. Louis for over 30 years. Right across the street from the old Globe Democrat building on Tucker was a Chinese restaurant next to the Mo Bar and Grill, They had the BEST St. Paul sandwich I ever tasted. We would eat there two or three times a week. Always your money's worth and the taste was SENSATIONAL!!
This isn’t Chinese food by the way. It’s just American food. I’m Chinese and I’m from St. Louis. Never heard of it until a few months ago. I’m almost 30. I would think the reason why this thing exists is because Americans would think real Chinese food is weird or disgusting.
I'm from St Louis and I absolutely love the St Paul sandwich... I usually get the special the St Paul which contains beef and chicken in addition to the shrimp... I also get a slice of cheese added. Us St Louisians love Chinese food!
I've only ever had one Chinese restaurant put tomato on a St. Paul. Their food was crap and they went out of business in 3 years. Go out to Florissant and try a place called Old St. Louis (pronounced Luey ) Chop Suey. You'll get the best St.Paul EVER.
I really enjoy your videos, and thanks for covering the St Paul. When I was much younger (and very broke) I lived in St Louis, and the St Paul sandwich was my favorite thing to order in any Chinese place, since it was both filling and usually the cheapest thing on the menu. I could usually get two of them for the price of an order of fried rice. Sad to know when I move to Iowa I'll have to make my own, but I have your video to help!
That looks seriously epic! I, personally love me some egg foo young and putting that egg patty on a sandwich is just brilliance in my opinion! I am totally going to have to give this a try! Thanks Larry for the inspiration!
Sounds like you just made yourself another video opportunity! Open faced, smothered, egg foo young sandwich! Now that something that sounds delicious too!
Must be one of those recipes the Chinese used to make to cook the workers connecting the country together on the railways, to make a route from San Francisco to New York, looks awesome
Larry, this is more creative than words can describe! I know you're fond of egg foo yung from your past episodes. This sandwich is too good to be renowned only in St. Louis or St. Paul! It should be heralded everywhere! It looks so GOOD!!!!
I've never had an egg foo young sandwich!!!!! I neeed to try this! ... have you tried the sara lee artesano bread yet? I LOVE it.. especially for making stuff like this, its like wonder bread amped up just a little ha
Thank you Dave! Not sure really about the cornstarch, I have never used it in my EFY. Recently I have been seeing EFY recipes with cornstarch in them so I gave it a try. Didn't notice any difference, good or bad.
Yessss lord my friend put me on this last year and I’m from St. Louis my family never made this but we love egg fu young Pattie’s ❤making soon with crab and chicken breast chopped 😊
People in the STL are serious about their St. Paul Sandwiches. Just like your channel, If you are feeding your family and money is tight, this sandwich will fill you up and not cost a bunch. North Side Stl has some of the best places for this sandwich. Make mine with beef or chicken. Throw some hot sauce on it as well. Good video!
Well Larry brother. I made this sandwich today. I have to admit it was rather good! The ingredients worked well with each other and blended nicely. The look to the eye was okay, However the smells as it all came together was excellent. Little hard to control as some ingredients slipped out but then it happens lol. Overall Larry, I will give a 8.0 score even though I am not much for egg sandwiches. I think you nailed it on this one. Maybe a good sourdough bread might be good as it would add another flavor. I just might have try that next time.
Thanks Matt, glad you tried it and enjoyed it! Heartier bread would definitely be better! Stay tuned if you think this sandwich was messy and weird.....the next one up is out of this world WEIRD, BUT OOOH SO DELICIOUS!
When I was a kid, here in Philly (PA) we had the same sandwich at our local Chinese take outs. It was called a "Western Sandwich". They were great! lol. Yours looked great too!
Yep the Western sandwich is also known as a Denver sandwich and James Beard thought it was created by the Chinese cooks in the 19th & 20th centuries on the railroads! Thanks Quinn!
Hard to find a place that serves a Denver sandwich any more. They used to be as common on menus as BLTs. I suppose that will be the next one to go. They don't toast the bread any more, they grill it. Not the same thing and not what should be used on a BLT or club sandwich. (Sigh).
I've lived in MO all my life. I used to get these in a place just south of STL in Festus, MO and they were awesome. You could get whatever you wanted, beef, pork, etc. I'm now in SW MO and you really don't see them around here.
I seem to remember you could order them in like 3 variations. I'm assuming the meat is different. I've always thought it was a weird sandwich. good job.
awesome! as i am allergic to shell fish as is my wife we would need to use something like a plain pulled pork with maybe some Asian inspired seasonings, or chicken...would be good that way too!
Wonder bread... I wasn't even aware they still made it. Or maybe I just haven't been noticing it at the store. Still in the white wrapper with balloons all over it?
lol. I was actually looking for a chili recipe and saw this sandwich and thought,watch the video. i never tried this before so I'm going to give it a try and let you know what I think. I'm sure you have a good chili recipe. Please let me know where to look on your channel. Thanks
Let me know what you think about the St. Paul Sandwich! Here's a chili recipe to try! Thanks for watching! Chili Recipe - www.thewolfepit.com/2015/09/chili-recipe-homemade-chili.html
What a WEIRD sandwich... looks absolutely DELISH especially with the shrimp! Questions: 1) what purpose does the cornstarch serve in the egg foo young? 2) Do you do any Korean flavors? I'm interested in seeing what you would come up with using typically available at non-specialty grocery ingredients. THX Larry!
I've made EFY a lot, never added cornstarch before.....I saw a few recipes that added it and couldn't understand why either, so I added some. Couldn't tell a huge difference in my normal EFY and the EFY with cornstarch other than it was a little crispier. Not enough difference to add it again though. I've been looking into some Korean recipes, but haven't doe a lot of Korean cooking before. I'll be doing some soon! Thanks!
I'm Chinese-American but I've never seen this on any Chinese restaurant menu. I do, however, remember that I used to order an actual Denver Omelette at the diner and put it between toast with bacon to make a sandwich.
It's unique to St. Louis. (However, from the video and the comments it seems to be found in some towns in southern Missouri and maybe even St. Paul. I know that in my travels around the US in the numerous Chinese restaurants that I visited, no one had a clue about what I was talking about.
They aren't all over Missouri there might be a few places outside of St Louis but not many. They are not in all Chinese restaurants in St Louis mostly Chop Suey places the more like a dive the better the sandwich
I was born and raised in St Louis and the truth is, I'm sorry folks but that was not a Saint Louis, St. Paul sandwich that you've just seen in this video. No suh! Lol...That was a scrambled egg and shrimp omelette sandwich. That is what he just made....Smh A TRUE St. Paul sandwich is in fact, definitely deep fried to a golden brown colored fluffy egg patty! This link below is more like it and showcases the real St. Louis, St. Paul sandwich and how it's made. Oh, and by the way, for those of you who are confused and don't know, you do put tomatoes, pickles, onions and Mayo on the St. Paul sandwich. Yes suh!!!! ua-cam.com/video/uBDUrAWo-40/v-deo.html
Larry, just as you were adding the pickles, I was thinking "That's weird," then it was as if you were answering me: "I know it's getting weird, isn't it?" :) Question: what does the cornstarch in the egg mixture do? As to the raw shrimp, I will never understand why so many people are so terrified of raw meat. It seems like many of them think raw meat is poisonous in and of itself. Of course you wouldn't want to put raw chicken in this, the eggs would be burnt by the time the chicken was cooked. But the heat needed to cook the eggs is quite sufficient to cook the shrimp.
Yeah if the white bread, lettuce, tomatoes and onions weren't weird enough...then came the pickles! lol I've made EFY a lot, never added cornstarch before.....I saw a few recipes that added it and couldn't understand why either, so I added some. Couldn't tell a huge difference in my normal EFY and the EFY with cornstarch other than it was a little crispier. Not enough difference to add it again though. Yeah the only meat I would pre-cook would be chicken. Beef, pork and seafoods will cook sufficiently mixed in raw with the eggs in my opinion. Thanks for watching CS!
Well Valerie 'my friend' I guess everyone else that's ever made one made it wrong, including Steven Yuen (the originator). www.google.com/search?rls=aso&client=gmail&q=TRADITIONAL%20ST%20PAUL%20SANDWICH&authuser=0
@@TheWolfePit I guess tomatoes on a St. Paul just ain't a big thing in South St. Louis; I've eaten many St. Paul's from different places in this part of the city and never encountered a tomato.
No it is definitely not an egg foo young pattie. Egg foo young patties are made in a pan and covered with egg foo young gravy and many times stuffed with white rice. St paul sandwiches are deep fried when made correctly. I grew up eating them and learned to make them in St Louis Chinese kitchens.
One question in NYC we eat our Egg foo young with fried rice, but its the EGG FOO YOUNG SAUCE that makes it pop. Iam AMAZED that no EGG FOO YOUNG SAUCE WAS SPREAD. MAYO 🤷♂️🤦♂️🤷♂️ Iam not gonna hate on something i haven't eaten but i will make one the ST LOUIE WAY and taste for myself. LOVE ME SOME CHICKEN EGG FOO YOUNG
saint Louis has the best Chinese by far no other city has dark greasy rice like us nobody it's definitely different
Lakisha Hudson don’t we
Facts...
True!
Yes you can buy something called browning to darken the rice. Still use soy sauce for taste becareful with the browning you only need about a cap full the bottle dose not have a pour proof sprout soon watch it but it will give you that color.
Lakisha Hudson facts lol
I'm from St. Louis and love a good St. Paul sandwich. We also have some of the best fried rice
Latasha Jackson me too fire
Darn right you do. I used to go to a little hole in the wall place on Delmar when I was in college and I'd order them all the time. I want to go back down and stuff my face full of them until I burst, or have a heart attack, whichever comes first.
Dont forget the toasted ravioli :)
Yesssss ❤
I'm from St. Louis and yes there are St Paul sandwiches that has tomatoes on them, it depends on where you go
Yes my city St. Louis have the best Chinese food period!!
I'm from St. Louis, and all of the St. Paul's I've ate we're deep fried. I give you thumbs up for making a healthier alternative way to enjoy them.
Interesting sandwich, and even more interesting theories on how it was originated. Very cool.
Thank you very much Siri!!

I'm going to cook a new recipe every day until I've cooked them all. I freaking love these ideas man, good job!!
I’m a Chinese living in St Louis and I’ve never had a St Paul sandwich. Gotta try it someday.
How sad

im from stl and i got so excited when i saw this video. They are truly something i have searched high and low for in other states. thank you thank you
Thank you very much Jenny!
I love it!!! East St. Louis, IL Chicken St. Paul with cheese
LOL Thanks for watching!
You know it. Ain't nothing like the crib. 618/314
.wrong so That's ?Paul .St a on Cheese
.Backwards
That's right Illinois and Missouri all day y'all represent
So I was watching your videos. I randomly decided to look up the recipe for a St. Paul sandwich. The search result took me right back to your video
Dukes is the actual best mayo ever.
That's a fried omelette St. Paul must be deep fried!!! The greasy unhealthiness is just what STL Chinese food is...
Steven Grissom stfu BITCH
Exactly
My mom just showed me this and she's from St Louis. So happy you have this video up so we could share that. Have a happy New Year!
I'm from St Louis and I absolutely love the St Paul sandwich... I usually get the special the St Paul which contains beef and chicken in addition to the shrimp... I also get a slice of cheese added. Us St Louisians love Chinese food!
I love how you St. Louisians Chinese cooks change up things too! Very creative and delicious!
I'm from St. Louis and have been eating St. Paul sandwiches for over 35 years. You NEVER put tomatoes on a St. Paul.
brian smith no tomatoes ok, just heirloom tomatoes then!!!!!
Chinese restaurants I ate at DID use sliced tomatoes on their St Paul sandwiches...
I've only ever had one Chinese restaurant put tomato on a St. Paul. Their food was crap and they went out of business in 3 years. Go out to Florissant and try a place called Old St. Louis (pronounced Luey ) Chop Suey. You'll get the best St.Paul EVER.
The places I ate when I was a kid gave you the bread and the lettuce and tomato to make the sandwich when you ordered egg foo young.
brian smith yep that's where I had my first one and have been in love ever since
I really enjoy your videos, and thanks for covering the St Paul.

that's a seriously creativity right there. I've never seen that one
Definitely different Lyle! Thanks for watching!
i left the tomato out of my sandwich since i cant stand just plain tomato . taste pretty good . did not expect that to be honnest .
Yeah I wasn't sure about it either! If you liked this one, you may like the chow mein sandwich too!

Must be one of those recipes the Chinese used to make to cook the workers connecting the country together on the railways, to make a route from San Francisco to New York, looks awesome
That was James Beard's theory!
I am from Saint Paul MN and haven't heard of this sandwich! I grew up reading menus, Another great idea!
It's a STL born and raised classic meal only us claimed is a st.louis landmark food
Larry, this is more creative than words can describe! I know you're fond of egg foo yung from your past episodes. This sandwich is too good to be renowned only in St. Louis or St. Paul! It should be heralded everywhere! It looks so GOOD!!!!
I would like that famous food critic, Ms. Cheeks to do a review!! lol Thanks John!
"Beat em like they stole your lunch money", I like that! Im gonna spread that around!
Wonderful video your sandwich looks delicious. I live in St. Louis and have it just like that.
I've never had an egg foo young sandwich!!!!! I neeed to try this! ... have you tried the sara lee artesano bread yet? I LOVE it.. especially for making stuff like this, its like wonder bread amped up just a little ha

Oddly enough, when I saw the bean sprouts I started craving water chestnuts. Sounds like great addition. Thanks !!
Never seen this but looks so yummy!

The best place in St Louis to get a make st. Paul sandwich is Park chop suey
Bo Fung on the south side makes a great one as well. I lived around the corner when they opened in the mid 80s

Well dang...never heard of such a thing....good one Wolfie!
Strange ain't it Boogie!?!? Thanks for watching!
I seem to remember you could order them in like 3 variations. I'm assuming the meat is different. I've always thought it was a weird sandwich. good job.
While researching these Andy I saw a plethora of variations.....some even with bacon and cheese! Thanks for giving me this idea!
Andy cooks food
You can have them with any meat they have the fried rice in.
That Sandwich looks good Larry, I love Shrimp!!
Thank you Ellen!
My pleasure!
THERE IS NOTHING WEIRD ABOUT THIS SANDWICH...
IT'S HEAVENLY.....😇
awesome! as i am allergic to shell fish as is my wife we would need to use something like a plain pulled pork with maybe some Asian inspired seasonings, or chicken...would be good that way too!
My wife is also very allergic to shellfish! Any meat or vegetables will work in this! Thanks for watching!
Wonder bread... I wasn't even aware they still made it. Or maybe I just haven't been noticing it at the store. Still in the white wrapper with balloons all over it?
It is indeed still around, same packaging and it's expensive!! LOL
Wow! This is interesting

Motley Byron ......yeah the pickles have to go.....hate them all my life. The rest looks great
What a WEIRD sandwich... looks absolutely DELISH especially with the shrimp! Questions: 1) what purpose does the cornstarch serve in the egg foo young? 2) Do you do any Korean flavors? I'm interested in seeing what you would come up with using typically available at non-specialty grocery ingredients. THX Larry!

Oh you gotta try EFY Tom, it's fantastic!! Thanks for watching!

I don't think it's weird at all! Looks damn good Wolfe! Those Tomatoes are gorgeous btw! TFS & TC :))
After my first bite I no longer thought it was weird either Kelly!! lol Thanks for watching!
***** Looked good to me! :))
this shut is so good
My first time hearing of this. Interesting. Sounds like it's an egg sandwich but the benefits of egg foo young.
Egg foo young is quick fried in a wok over high heat in extremely hot oil.
I love these sandwiches but without the pickles. I also like a side of egg foo young gravy to dip it in.
EFY is my all time favorite! Thanks for watching Linda!
Great vid,love your channel.
You must have seen Rick Sebaks documentaries...great stuff!
this is one of the most weird things I have ever seen. However, it looks really good and I'd like to try it. :-)
Thanks Elizabeth!
You had me at BEAN SPROUTS! My Chinese guy knows my voice by now so when he delivers its always extra bean sprouts in everything! Luv him :-)
I love them too! Thanks for watching!
OOOOHHHH, That looks awesome!! Dukes mayo is the best!!
Thank you Lisa!! Been eating Dukes most of my life....love it!
Thank you☺
Wow, will have to make this....who woulda thunk it
never thought of this thank you so much.😗
Thank you very much Peelynn!

Lol...That was a scrambled egg and shrimp omelette sandwich. That is what he just made....Smh
A TRUE St. Paul sandwich is in fact, definitely deep fried to a golden brown colored fluffy egg patty!
This link below is more like it and showcases the real St. Louis, St. Paul sandwich and how it's made.
Oh, and by the way, for those of you who are confused and don't know, you do put tomatoes, pickles, onions and Mayo on the St. Paul sandwich.
Yes suh!!!!

onme 😂
And cheese 😋
Now that's an interesting sandwich!
Thank you Dee!
Easy simple lunch and or dinner 🎉❤😮
He made a omelet, that’s too flat for a St.Paul and totally different texture suppose to deep fried it
I think I'm going to make me a couple of Saint Paul sandwiches for breakfast here in the STL.
In a sandwich that is awesome!
Thanks!!
Larry, just as you were adding the pickles, I was thinking "That's weird," then it was as if you were answering me: "I know it's getting weird, isn't it?" :)
Question: what does the cornstarch in the egg mixture do?
As to the raw shrimp, I will never understand why so many people are so terrified of raw meat. It seems like many of them think raw meat is poisonous in and of itself. Of course you wouldn't want to put raw chicken in this, the eggs would be burnt by the time the chicken was cooked. But the heat needed to cook the eggs is quite sufficient to cook the shrimp.
Yeah if the white bread, lettuce, tomatoes and onions weren't weird enough...then came the pickles! lol
I've made EFY a lot, never added cornstarch before.....I saw a few recipes that added it and couldn't understand why either, so I added some. Couldn't tell a huge difference in my normal EFY and the EFY with cornstarch other than it was a little crispier. Not enough difference to add it again though.
Yeah the only meat I would pre-cook would be chicken. Beef, pork and seafoods will cook sufficiently mixed in raw with the eggs in my opinion.
Thanks for watching CS!

Diego Momentum it has lettuce its just wilted to death
Do you know egg foo young, means egg with egg
Like shrimp scampi which means shrimp shrimp.
