ULTIMATE HAM SANDWICH

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 large egg yolk (from a pasteurized egg)
1 tablespoon white wine vinegar or champagne vinegar
Kosher salt
1/2 cup vegetable or grapeseed oil
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Spread Homemade Mayonnaise (recipe follows) on a thick slice of crusty white or rye bread. Top with Bibb lettuce, sliced tomato, thick slices of leftover ham, a few dill pickle slices and sliced cheddar cheese. Spread whole-grain mustard on another slice of bread, then close the sandwich.
  • Whisk the egg yolk, vinegar and 1 tablespoon water in a medium nonreactive heatproof bowl (glass or ceramic). Fill a large bowl with ice water and set aside. Bring 2 inches water to a simmer in a saucepan over medium-low heat.
  • Set the bowl with the yolk mixture over the saucepan (do not let the bowl touch the water). Slowly whisk until a thermometer inserted into the yolk mixture registers 150 degrees F, 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Set the bowl with the yolk mixture in the ice water to stop the cooking; whisk just until the mixture is lukewarm (do not let it get cold).
  • Put the bowl with the yolk mixture on a damp towel. Add 1/4 teaspoon salt. Combine the oils in a measuring cup. Whisking constantly, slowly drizzle the oil into the bowl in a thin stream until smooth and thick. If at any point the oil is not emulsifying into the mixture, stop adding the oil and whisk to combine before continuing. Whisk in 1 to 2 teaspoons water if the mayonnaise is too thick. Season with salt. Cover and refrigerate up to 4 days.
  • Yield: 1 cup

Time 30m

Yield 24 small sandwiches, 8-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 -12 packages of sweet hawaiian rolls (the small dinner roll looking ones)
1 1/2 lbs of virginia ham (NOT honey ham)
12 slices swiss cheese
3/4 cup butter
1 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 1/2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons dried onion
poppy seed

Steps:

  • You will need two 9 x 13 pans. Place the bottoms of 12 rolls in each pan. Place ham (about 2 shaved slices or so) on the rolls. Cut the cheese slices into 4 parts and place 2 small pieces on each sandwich. Put the dinner roll tops on. In a sauce pan, mix butter, dijon mustard, worcestershire sauce, and dried onions. Wait until all butter is melted and then pour the melted mixture over the ham sandwiches (I know it sounds weird but TRUST me). Sprinkle the buns with poppy seeds and cover with foil. Let refrigerate overnight (If not able to wait, it is okay. They still taste great if made right away). Preheat oven to 350 and uncover sandwiches. Bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes and serve. They are great hot and even at room temperature Enjoy!
  • *I have made these with turkey also and they are good. Not as great as the ham, but they are good.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Choose a good-quality ham, fresh bread, and ripe tomatoes.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of bread. A hearty rye bread or a soft sourdough can both be delicious.
  • Add some crunch to your sandwich with some crispy lettuce or a few slices of cucumber.
  • If you're using a spreadable cheese, like cream cheese or mayonnaise, be sure to spread it evenly over the bread. This will help to prevent the sandwich from getting soggy.
  • If you're making a cold sandwich, chill the bread and the ham before assembling. This will help the sandwich to stay fresh and prevent the bread from getting soggy.
  • If you're making a hot sandwich, grill the bread or toast it before adding the ham and cheese. This will help the sandwich to stay crispy.
