Time 40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 18-inch baguette
6 ounces deli-sliced ham
4 ounces brie cheese, cut into 6 slices
6 cornichons, sliced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425˚ F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Combine the butter and mustard in a bowl and mash with a spoon; season with salt and pepper.
  • Trim the ends off the baguette. Cut the bread on an angle into 12 slices, leaving the bottom of the loaf intact. (You can position chopsticks along the long sides of the bread to keep from cutting all the way through the loaf.) Transfer to the baking sheet.
  • Brush all but 2 tablespoons of the mustard butter between the bread slices. Fold each piece of ham in half or into quarters, then stuff into every other slice in the bread, starting with the first slice. Stuff a slice of brie into each piece of ham. Brush or rub the top and sides of the bread with the remaining mustard butter.
  • Bake until the edges of the ham are crisp and the cheese has melted, about 18 minutes. Pull apart or slice into individual sandwiches. Sprinkle with the cornichons and chives.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Pork Recipes

Yield Makes three 6-inch sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 (18-inch-long) baguette
1/4 cup mustard
8 ounces good-quality ham, such as black forest
4 ounces brie cheese, sliced 1/4 inch thick

Steps:

  • Slice baguette horizontally, and spread both sides with mustard. Layer one side with ham and brie, and top with the other half of the loaf. Slice the baguette into three 6-inch sandwiches.

Tips:

  • Choose the right baguette: A fresh, crusty baguette is essential for this recipe. Look for one that is golden brown and has a crispy crust.
  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the sandwich will be. Look for a Brie cheese that is creamy and flavorful, and a ham that is thinly sliced and has a good flavor.
  • Don't overload the baguette: It's important to not overload the baguette with too many ingredients, or it will become difficult to eat. Stick to a few simple ingredients that will complement each other well.
  • Grill or pan-fry the baguette: Grilling or pan-frying the baguette will help to crisp it up and make it even more delicious. If you are grilling the baguette, be sure to brush it with olive oil first to prevent it from sticking.
  • Serve immediately: This sandwich is best served immediately after it is made. The bread will become soggy if it sits for too long.

Conclusion:

The French Brie and Ham Baguette is a classic sandwich that is perfect for a quick and easy lunch or dinner. It is made with just a few simple ingredients, but it is packed with flavor. The creamy Brie cheese, salty ham, and crispy baguette come together to create a sandwich that is both delicious and satisfying. This sandwich is also very versatile, and you can easily customize it to your own liking. For example, you could add other ingredients such as lettuce, tomato, or avocado. You could also use a different type of cheese or ham. No matter how you make it, the French Brie and Ham Baguette is sure to be a hit.
