Recipe information

  • Yield

    Makes 8 sandwiches

Ingredients

1 recipe cumin corn bread, cooled to room temperature
3 tablespoons honey mustard (available at specialty foods shops and some supermarkets)
1/2 pound thinly sliced prosciutto (available at specialty foods shops and supermarkets)
1/2 pound thinly sliced MÜnster

For cumin corn bread:

3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup yellow cornmeal
1 tablespoon sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons double-acting baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
1 large egg, beaten lightly
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted and cooled
2 teaspoons cuminseed

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Cut the corn bread in half and cut each half crosswise into 4 pieces (each about 4 by 2 inches). Halve each piece horizontally with a serrated knife and spread the bottom halves of the corn bread with some of the mustard. Layer the bottom halves with the prosciutto and the MÜnster, cover the sandwiches with the top halves of the corn bread, and wrap each sandwich in foil or plastic wrap.

  2. To make cumin corn bread

    Step 2

    In a bowl stir together the flour, the cornmeal, the sugar, the baking powder, and the salt, add the milk, the egg, the butter, and the cuminseed, and stir the mixture until it is combined. Spread the batter in an even layer in a greased 8-inch-square baking pan, bake the corn bread in the middle of a preheated 425°F. oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until it pulls away from the sides of the pan and the top is golden, and invert it onto a cutting board.

Palets Bretons
Palets bretons are oversize cookies that feature butter, and because they’re from Brittany, they’re traditionally made with beurre salé, salted butter.
Fufu
Fufu is a dish that has been passed down through many generations and is seen as a symbol of Ghanaian identity and heritage. Making fufu traditionally is a very laborious task; this recipe mimics some of that hard work but with a few home-cook hacks that make for a far easier time.
Smothered Italian Sausage
This is what I call a fridge-eater recipe. The key here is getting a nice sear on the sausage and cooking the tomato down until it coats the sausage and vegetables well.
Smashed Pork Tacos
Instead of searing one tortilla at a time, you'll cook eight at once under the broiler.
Île Flottante
Originally called omelette à la neige (snow omelet) in reference to the fluffy snow-like appearance of the meringue, île flottante (floating island) has a lengthy history that dates back to the 17th century.
Luscious Banana Pudding
Layer homemade custard, ripe bananas, and vanilla wafers under clouds of whipped cream for this iconic dessert.
Sofrito Bolognese
An ex-boyfriend’s mom—who emigrated from Colombia—made the best meat sauce—she would fry sofrito for the base and simply add cooked ground beef, sazón, and jarred tomato sauce. My version is a bit more bougie—it calls for caramelized tomato paste and white wine—but the result is just as good.
7UP Cake With Lemony Glaze
A glug of lemon-lime soda gives this pound cake a citrusy zip and tender crumb.
