BACON-BLUE CHEESE SANDWICHES



Bacon-Blue Cheese Sandwiches image

Onion jam, which is reason enough to try this sandwich, is simple to make (see the recipe for BLAAK Onion Jam at beekman1802.com, which also sells the jam by the jar). Although any blue cheese is delicious here, look for one that's sliceable or crumbly, not gooey. Stilton, Maytag, and Roaring Forties are good choices.

BLUE CHEESE, BACON AND PEAR BRUNCH SANDWICHES



BLUE CHEESE, BACON AND PEAR BRUNCH SANDWICHES image

Categories     Bacon     Rosemary     Cheese     Pear     Buffet

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 recipe - 1 Bosc pear, thinly sliced
1 1/2 cups apple juice
6 slices bacon
1 recipe - 2 rosemary focaccia bread rolls, or other square rolls, split
6 ounces blue cheese, crumbled

Steps:

  • Place the pear slices in a skillet, and pour in the apple juice. Cook over medium heat until the pears are soft, about 5 minutes. Drain pears and reserve; discard juice.
  • Meanwhile, place the bacon in a skillet and cook over medium-high heat until evenly brown. Drain on paper towels. Crumble and set aside.
  • Preheat the oven broiler.
  • Place the focaccia bread slices on a baking sheet. Divide the pear slices evenly among the bread, and top evenly with the bacon, and then with the blue cheese.
  • Broil the sandwiches in the preheated broiler until the cheese melts, about 2 minutes.

Tips:

  • For crispy bacon, cook it in a single layer in a hot skillet over medium heat. Flip the bacon halfway through cooking.
  • To make the cheese sauce, use a good quality cheddar cheese that melts well. Sharp cheddar or extra sharp cheddar are both good choices.
  • If you don't have a panini press, you can grill the sandwiches in a lightly oiled skillet over medium heat. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  • Serve the sandwiches immediately with your favorite sides, such as chips, salad, or fruit.
