Not in this NG, thanks.

Heh...reminds me of "Iä! Iä! Yog-Sothoth!" (though "Hymn to Pan" is one of
my favorite songs by Rhea's Obsession.)


ObFood: Pan Bagnat

Make a vinaigrette: Combine red wine vinegar, tarragon, basil, and oregano
in a jar. Add olive oil, close jar, and shake well.

Cut a good-quality loaf of artisanal bread in half horizontally. Scoop out
the insides. Into the hollow thus created, drizzle some of the vinaigrette.
Slice some tomatoes and put them into the hollow. Sprinkle with salt and
pepper. Add some sliced marinated artichoke hearts and sliced mozzarella
cheese. Drizzle with more vinaigrette. Add some good-quality pitted olives
and chopped scallions. (You can add roasted peppers too.) Top with lettuce.
Drizzle the underside of the top of the loaf with the vinaigrette and then
put the top back onto the loaf. Press the loaf for at least half an hour
for the flavors to mingle. Slice and serve.

(Some people like to add anchovies or tuna, but I like the fish-free version
better.)
