Steps:

  • Preheat a griddle and deep fryer to 350 degrees F.
  • Butter the griddle. Dunk the Texas toast on both sides in the French Toast Custard and grill until golden brown. Flip and add 1 slice Swiss cheese to each slice of toast. Then add 3 ounces ham on top of 6 of the toast slices, then top the ham with another slice of Swiss cheese. Top each ham and cheese toast with a cheese only toast, to form 6 sandwiches. Cook until the cheese melts, then remove from griddle and cool. Dunk the cooled sandwiches in the pancake batter until fully covered and put into the fryer. Cook until golden brown on both sides, about 8 minutes. Serve with the Strawberry-Rhubarb Syrup.
  • Beat the eggs well, then add the sugar and mix until emulsified and all the sugar has dissolved. Add the milk and vanilla and whisk until combined.
  • Add the strawberries, rhubarb, sugar and maple syrup to a saucepot. Place over medium heat and cook until fruit is soft, about 20 minutes. Let cool slightly, then carefully puree with a hand blender.

MONTE CRISTO OMELET SANDWICH

If you are a fan of Monte Cristos, you'll love this riff on the popular Indian street food egg sandwich. It's every bit as crisp on the outside, ooey-gooey on the inside and dusted all over with confectioners' sugar. A square-shaped bread is ideal: It enables neater folding of the omelet. You will also want to use a nonstick skillet that is at least ten inches in diameter -- the omelet won't fit in a smaller pan.

Steps:

  • Add the eggs, 1 tablespoon water and 1/4 teaspoon salt to a small bowl and whisk to combine. Spread each cheese slice with 1/4 teaspoon of the Dijon and set the slices mustard-side-up on a flat surface. Put the confectioners' sugar in a small fine-mesh sieve set over a plate.
  • Heat the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until melted and starting to brown around the edges of the pan. Add the egg mixture and swirl the pan to coat the bottom. Working quickly, dip 1 slice of the bread in the eggs, then flip the slice and place it so the top edge of the slice is near the edge of the pan furthest from you. Repeat with the remaining slice of bread, setting it across the pan from the first bread slice. The bottom edges of the two slices should be in a straight line, with eggs all around.
  • Continue to cook the eggs until they are completely set on the bottom and mostly cooked on the top, 1 to 2 minutes more. Slide a large nonstick spatula under the bread and flip the whole omelet in one single motion. Set the cheese mustard-side up on top of the omelet, covering the bread. Lay the ham on top of one of the slices of cheese. Using the spatula, fold one side of the omelet (but not the bread side) over the cheese and ham, then fold over the other side. Fold in half so the bread slices meet and form a sandwich.
  • Cook until the bread on the bottom is golden brown and the cheese is beginning to melt, 1 to 2 minutes. Reduce the heat if the bread begins to darken too quickly before the cheese melts. Flip and cook until the other side is golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Set the sandwich on a plate and dust with the confectioners' sugar.

3 large eggs
Kosher salt
2 slices Swiss cheese
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 tablespoon confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 slices sourdough or white bread
2 large slices ham

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spread 4 bread slices with the mustard and the other 4 with the preserves. Toss both cheeses in a bowl, then divide half the mixture among the mustard-covered bread. Top with the ham, then the remaining cheese and the preserves-covered bread. Press each sandwich slightly. Whisk the eggs, milk, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a baking dish.
  • Melt 1 1/2 tablespoons butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until just starting to brown. Dip 2 sandwiches in the egg mixture, turning to coat. Let the excess drip off, then transfer to the hot skillet and cook until browned and crisp, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer the sandwiches to a rack set on a baking sheet. Wipe out the skillet, add the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons butter and cook the remaining 2 sandwiches. Transfer to the rack, then transfer the baking sheet to the oven to melt the cheese completely, about 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, toss the greens with the vinegar, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Serve with the sandwiches.

Steps:

  • Heat 5 inches of oil in a deep-fryer to 365 degrees F (180 degrees C). While oil is heating, make the batter: In a medium bowl, whisk together the egg and water. Combine the flour, baking powder, salt and pepper; whisk into the egg mixture until smooth. Set aside in the refrigerator.
  • Assemble sandwiches by placing one slice of turkey on one slice of bread, a slice of ham on another, then sandwich them with the Swiss cheese in the middle. Cut sandwiches into quarters, and secure with toothpicks.
  • Dip each sandwich quarter in the batter so that all sides are coated. Deep fry in the hot oil until golden brown on all sides. Remove toothpicks and arrange on a serving tray. Dust with confectioners' sugar just before serving.

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, mix together the jam, mustard and rosemary. Lay out the slices of bread. Divide the mustard mixture evenly over the 8 slices of bread and spread almost to the edges. Put a slice of cheese on each piece of bread, followed by 2 slices of prosciutto. Put together 2 of the bread slices for each sandwich.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs. Add the heavy cream and salt and whisk to combine.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the oil to the pan and heat for 1 minute. Working with one sandwich at a time, dip both sides of the sandwich in the batter and place directly into the hot pan. Repeat with the remaining sandwiches. Cover with a lid and allow to cook until the first side is golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the lid, flip each sandwich and continue to cook on the remaining side until golden brown and the cheese is melted, approximately another 4 minutes. (Or cook in batches if needed.)
  • Sprinkle one side of each sandwich with powdered sugar and serve warm.

1/2 cup seedless red raspberry jam
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
8 slices brioche bread
8 thin slices Swiss cheese
16 thin slices prosciutto cotto
4 large eggs, at room temperature
3/4 cup heavy cream, at room temperature
1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons powdered sugar

Monte Cristo Crepes image

Steps:

  • Microwave the jam in a microwave-safe bowl until loosened, 20 to 30 seconds. Stir in the mustard; set aside.
  • Heat 1/2 tablespoon butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add 1 crepe; stack 2 slices each ham, turkey and cheese on one half of the crepe. Cook until the crepe just starts browning on the bottom and the cheese starts melting, 1 to 2 minutes. Fold the crepe in half over the filling using a spatula, then fold in half again to form a wedge. Flip the wedge and cook until the bottom is browned, about 30 seconds. Transfer to a plate. Repeat to make 3 more crepes. (Remove the skillet from the heat between batches if it gets too hot.)
  • Toss the greens and frisee with the olive oil and a pinch each of salt and pepper. Serve the crepes with the raspberry mustard and salad.

1/4 cup seedless raspberry jam
1/4 cup dijon mustard
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 12-inch prepared crepes
8 thin slices Black Forest ham (about 5 ounces)
8 thin slices deli turkey (about 8 ounces)
8 thin slices muenster cheese (about 4 ounces)
1 5-ounce package mixed greens (about 8 cups)
1 small head frisee, torn into small pieces
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
