FRENCH HAM AND GRUYERE SANDWICH



French Ham and Gruyere Sandwich image

As far as classic sandwiches go, ham and cheese has to be right up there with peanut butter and jelly. Part of its appeal is its adaptability. Here, French ham mixes with nutty Gruyere and mild hard-cooked eggs. The sandwich gets its crunch from a handful of frisee and a layer of dill pickles.

GRILLED HAM-AND-GRUYERE-CHEESE SANDWICHES



Grilled Ham-and-Gruyere-Cheese Sandwiches image

Gruyere cheese and rye bread update this classic sandwich that serves as an excellent use of leftover ham.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Pork Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 3

4 slices rye bread, buttered
4 slices ham
1 cup grated Gruyere cheese

Steps:

  • Butter 4 slices rye bread; place 2 slices, buttered side down, on a work surface. Top each with 2 slices ham and 1/2 cup grated Gruyere cheese. Top with 2slices bread, buttered side up. Cook in a skillet over medium until sandwiches are lightly toasted on both sides and cheese melts, 5 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use a high-quality cheese: Gruyère is a classic choice for this sandwich, but you can also use other Swiss cheeses like Emmental or Appenzeller. Just be sure to use a cheese that melts well.
  • Slice the ham and cheese thinly: This will help them melt evenly and prevent the sandwich from becoming too thick.
  • Use a good-quality bread: A sturdy bread like sourdough or French bread will hold up well to the fillings and won't get soggy.
  • Spread the mustard evenly on the bread: This will help prevent the sandwich from becoming dry.
  • Grill the sandwich until the cheese is melted and gooey: You can do this in a panini press or on a grill pan over medium heat.
  • Serve the sandwich immediately: This is when it's at its best, with the cheese melted and the bread crispy.

Conclusion:

The ham and Gruyère sandwich is a classic for a reason. It's simple to make, but it's also incredibly delicious. The salty ham, the nutty gruyère, and the tangy mustard all come together to create a sandwich that is both satisfying and flavorful. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy lunch or dinner, give this sandwich a try. You won't be disappointed.
