Cuban Sandwiches

Ingredients

• 1 loaf French bread
• Mayonnaise
• Dijon mustard
• 1/4 pound thinly sliced ham
• 4 slices Swiss cheese
• Kosher dill pickles, sliced
• Butter, for grilling

Directions

Slice the bread in half lengthwise. Spread one half with mayonnaise and the other with mustard. Layer the ham and Swiss cheese on 1 half of the bread. Layer the pickle slices over the cheese. Top with the other bread half. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat enough butter to coat the cooking surface. Place the sandwich in the pan and weight with another heavy pan or a brick wrapped in foil and grill until the cheese is melted. Cut the loaf to make 4 sandwiches.
