 ...or davo’s cuban sandwiches

½ c Dijon mustard
½ c finely chopped flat-leaf parsley
24 slices white sandwich bread
24 slices gruyere cheese
12 thick slices baked ham
2 sticks unsalted butter

  1. Combine the mustard and parsley in a bowl.  Lay out 12 slices of bread.  On each slice, spread a layer of the mustard-parsley paste, followed by a slice of cheese, ham, a second slice of cheese and top with a slice of bread.
  2. Melt the butter over medium heat.  Using a pastry brush, coat both sides of the sandwiches with butter.
  3. Grill sandwiches until the bread turns golden brown and the cheese is melted, 3-4 minutes on each side. 
  4. Cut into quarters and serve.
