«How to Serve a Croque-Monsieur
This rich and savory dish is best when enjoyed with a knife and fork. Of course, it also pairs perfectly with a glass of your favorite French wine. The recipe that follows will make one sandwich, but you can easily double it to make two. You can substitute Jarlsberg or even Monterey Jack for the Gruyère.

Ingredients
For the Béchamel

2 tbsp unsalted butter
2 tbsp all purpose flour
1 cup milk
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 to 1/4 tsp ground white pepper, or to taste
1/8 to 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg (optional)
For the Sandwich

2 slices white bread
1 tablespoon clarified butter, or softened unsalted butter, more to taste
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard, more to taste
1/2 cup grated Gruyère cheese, or a combination of Gruyère and Emmental
1/2 cup béchamel sauce
2 to 3 slices ham
Cooking spray»

Take it to the toastie thread

I was hoping to get a toastie at the borough market today. The place that makes them there was closed, and they’re not open until after we leave London.

It is vexing to Americans when something is closed for the entirety of your visit somewhere. We’re not used to it.

When we visit Australia over Xmas, the town’s local bakery shuts down for several weeks for the holiday and it sucks. They have really good meat pies, pasties, and sausage rolls.

This thread took a hit with anders’ sabotage and then creation of the open face sandwich thread
