Ham And Swiss Snacks Recipes

GARLICKY HAM AND SWISS

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat and add the minced garlic. Cook to infuse the garlic flavor into the butter and until the butter turns brown, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat and strain.
• Lay out 4 slices of the bread on a work surface. Layer each with 1 slice of the cheese, some ham and then some of the cornichons. Top with 1 more slice of cheese. Close the sandwiches with the remaining bread and brush with butter until fully coated on both sides.
• Place 2 sandwiches into a medium skillet over medium heat. Cover the skillet with a lid and cook until the bread is evenly golden brown, about 2 minutes. Flip, cover again and cook until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is visibly melted, about 2 minutes more. Repeat with the remaining sandwiches. If desired, rub the outside of the toasted bread with the garlic halves to add a little more garlic flavor.

HAM & SWISS PARTY RYE BITES

Steps:

• Lay the party rye out on baking sheets. Place a generous amount of ham on top. On top of ham, place a piece of swiss cheese.
• To make it easier I usually slice the ham and cheese after unwrapping it, into pieces large enough to fit each slice of the party rye.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Bake until cheese melts.
• Have some mustards out in case your guests would like to put some on their party ryes.
• These may be made earlier in the day, and refrigerated up until an hour before placing in oven.
• Buy more or less depending on your party size.
