CROQUE MONSIEUR

The croque monsieur-literally "mister crunch"-is at the elegant end of the grilled cheese spectrum. First served in 1910 at a Paris cafe, this ham sandwich with rich bechamel sauce is topped with cheese and then grilled under the broiler.

Steps:

  • Make bechamel sauce: Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat until just starting to bubble. Add flour, and cook, whisking constantly, until smooth but not browned, about 3 minutes.
  • Whisking constantly, slowly add milk; continue cooking while whisking until mixture has thickened, about 3 minutes more. Remove from heat, and add salt, nutmeg, cayenne, and black pepper. Transfer to a bowl; place plastic wrap directly on surface of sauce, and set aside.
  • Heat broiler. Heat a griddle or large cast-iron skillet over medium-low heat. Smear one side of bread slices with mustard. Top 4 slices with a layer each of ham and cheese; cover with remaining 4 bread slices, pressing gently to adhere. Generously butter outer sides, spreading it all the way to the edges.
  • Place sandwiches on griddle or in skillet. Cook until golden brown and cheese has melted, 3 to 4 minutes a side. Transfer to work surface; divide bechamel sauce evenly over tops, spreading to edges; sprinkle with grated cheese.
  • Transfer to broiler, and cook until topping is melted and golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Serve immediately.

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for spreading, room temperature
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
Pinch of freshly ground nutmeg
Pinch of cayenne pepper
Pinch of freshly ground black pepper
8 slices rustic French or firm white sandwich bread
1/4 cup Dijon or whole-grain mustard
1/2 pound cooked ham, thinly sliced
1/3 pound Gruyere cheese, thinly sliced, plus 1 cup freshly grated (about 2 ounces)

Steps:

  • Use 2 tablespoons of the butter to spread over one side of each slice of bread. On three of the slices, spread a layer of Dijon mustard over the butter, and top each with 4 slices of ham. On the other three, spread mayonnaise, and top each one with 2 slices of Swiss cheese. Press ham and cheese sides of sandwiches together.
  • In a flat bottomed dish, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, eggs, and water until blended. Set aside.
  • Heat remaining butter and vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Dip both sides of each sandwich in the egg mixture, and fry in the oil and butter until browned, flipping to brown on each side.

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Butter a baking sheet; set aside.
  • In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add flour, and cook until foaming, whisking constantly, for 3 minutes.
  • In another medium saucepan, heat milk over medium heat. Slowly add milk to butter-flour mixture, whisking to prevent lumps from forming. Bring mixture to a boil. Reduce heat to low, and cook 2 minutes more. Stir in 1/2 cup grated cheese, and season with salt, white pepper, nutmeg, and cayenne. Cook until thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat, transfer to a bowl, and set aside to cool.
  • Place 4 pieces of toast on a work surface and spread each piece with a 1/4 cup of sauce. Cover sauce with a slice of cheese, a slice of ham, and another slice of cheese. Top each sandwich with remaining 4 slices of toast. Spread each sandwich with 1/4 cup sauce and sprinkle evenly with remaining 1/2 cup grated cheese.
  • Place sandwiches on prepared baking sheet, and bake until heated through, about 5 minutes. Preheat broiler; transfer baking sheet to broiler and broil until golden brown and bubbly, 2 to 3 minutes. Serve immediately.

3 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for baking sheet
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups milk
1 cup Gruyere or Swiss cheese, grated, plus 8 ounces, thinly sliced
Coarse salt
Freshly ground white pepper
Freshly ground nutmeg

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
  • For one sandwich, place a slice of bread on a flat surface. Top it neatly with two thin slices of cheese trimmed to fit. Cover with the ham, also trimmed to fit. Cover with the remaining bread slice.
  • Melt the butter and generously brush the top of the sandwich with it. Brush the bottom of a heavy skillet just large enough to hold the sandwich. Add the sandwich, brushed side down. Generously brush the unbuttered side with butter.
  • Cook the sandwich on top of the stove until the bottom is nicely browned. Turn the sandwich over and immediately put it in the oven. Bake it just until the filling is piping hot and the cheese has melted. If desired, trim the sides. Cut in half and serve piping hot.

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Melt the butter over low heat in a small saucepan and add the flour all at once, stirring with a wooden spoon for 2 minutes. Slowly pour the hot milk into the butter?flour mixture and cook, whisking constantly, until the sauce is thickened. Off the heat add the salt, pepper, nutmeg, 1/2 cup grated Gruyere, and the Parmesan and set aside.
  • To toast the bread, place the slices on 2 baking sheets and bake for 5 minutes. Turn each slice and bake for another 2 minutes, until toasted.
  • Lightly brush half the toasted breads with mustard, add a slice of ham to each, and sprinkle with half the remaining Gruyere. Top with another piece of toasted bread. Slather the tops with the cheese sauce, sprinkle with the remaining Gruyere, and bake the sandwiches for 5 minutes. Turn on the broiler and broil for 3 to 5 minutes, or until the topping is bubbly and lightly browned. Serve hot.

Steps:

  • In 5-quart Dutch oven, melt butter over medium-high heat until sizzling. Cook onions in butter 13 to 15 minutes, stirring frequently, until onions are light golden brown. Stir in garlic; cook 30 seconds. Sprinkle flour on onion mixture; cook and stir constantly 1 minute. Slowly stir in chicken broth. Heat to boiling; reduce heat to low. Cook uncovered 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Sprinkle evenly with remaining 1/2 cup cheese. Broil with tops 5 inches from heat 1 to 2 minutes or just until cheese is melted and golden brown. Watch carefully so cheese does not burn.
