The grilled ham & swiss cheese sandwich was one I can remember seeing on Emeril a while back. At the time I watched the episode, adding honey to a grilled cheese sandwich sounded kind of strange to me so I tucked the recipe neatly in my brain somewhere safe and proceeded to forgot about it until a couple of weeks ago when I was getting ready to make a grilled ham and swiss sandwich and happened to see some honey sitting on the counter. Emeril's recipe came flooding back to me and I thought I would go ahead and give it a whirl. Thank goodness I did. Trust me, you will want to make this one. It is super yummy. The tangyness of the djon mustard with the sweetness of the honey makes for a perfect flavor combination. My husband and I enjoyed it so much, I've made it 4 different times over the past two weeks.
Grilled Ham & Swiss Cheese Sandwich with Honey and Djon Mustard - recipe adapted from Emeril
Ingredients (makes 2 sandwiches):
4 slices of bread
6 slices of deli sliced ham
2 slices of swiss cheese
butter, spreadable
honey
djon mustard
Directions:
1. Spread butter evenly all over one side of each bread slice. (This part does get a bit messy, but remember, it's worth it)
2. On the other side of the buttered bread, spread with honey on two slices and djon mustard on the other two slices.
3. Sandwich three slices of ham and 1 slice of swiss between the honey and djon side of your bread slices. Keeping the butter side on the top and bottom.
4. Fry the sandwhich in a skillet under medium heat, about 5 minutes per side, until golden brown. Serve warm.
Very delicious! A unique flavor combination that I will try over and over again! Thank you.
