Recipes:
Gourmet Ham and Cheese Sandwich
Ingredients
4 slices of sourdough bread
4 slices of ham (honey or smoked)
4 slices of cheese (Gruyère, Swiss, or cheddar)
2 tbsp butter, softened
1 tsp Dijon mustard (optional)
1 tsp honey (optional)
Fresh microgreens or parsley (for garnish)
Instructions
Step 1: Prep the Bread
Spread softened butter on one side of each bread slice.
(Optional) Spread Dijon mustard or honey on the unbuttered side for extra flavor.
Step 2: Assemble the Sandwich
On the unbuttered side of one slice, layer cheese, ham, and another slice of cheese.
Top with another slice of bread, buttered side out.
Step 3: Grill the Sandwich
Heat a skillet over medium heat.
Place the sandwich in the skillet and cook until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes.
Flip carefully and cook the other side until the cheese is melted and the bread is crispy.
Step 4: Garnish and Serve
Remove from the skillet and slice diagonally.
Garnish with fresh microgreens or parsley for a gourmet touch.
Chef’s Tip: Add a sprinkle of black pepper or paprika for an extra kick. Pair with a bowl of tomato soup for the ultimate comfort meal!
