EXTRA-SPECIAL HAM SANDWICH (INSPIRED BY STARBUCKS HAM AND BRIE)
I recently tried this sandwich from Starbucks. The original sandwich was Black Forest ham, brie cheese, honey mustard, and dried cherries on a French baguette. I can't eat dairy products, so I painstakingly stripped the sandwich of Brie, which was difficult since Brie is a soft cheese. What I had left was delicious though. Not normally a fan of Black Forest ham, I would buy it in order to recreate this sandwich. I'm posting this for safekeeping, so I don't forget how to make it. Try not to think of this as a true copycat, but inspired by the original. The honey mustard, dried cherries, and ham go together like a dream. I never would have tried this combination, but glad I did. Making your own, even if you add Brie to yours will be a lot cheaper, too. Ingredients are for one sandwich, but the amounts are to taste. If you want to add the Brie, the original Starbuck's sandwich had 4 thick slices that were laid out 2 across and 2 down on a long french baguette. Each of the Brie slices were probably an inch long and 1/4 inch wide and several centimeters thick. They were laid out on top of the ham.

Steps:
- To assemble the sandwich, split the French baguette lengthwise, but not all the way through, so that there's a "hinge" on one side.
- Spread desired amount of honey mustard on both sides.
- Pile on the sliced Black Forest ham.
- Sprinkle with desired amount of dried cherries.
- Close up the two sides of the sandwich, and eat. :).

Number Of Ingredients 5
Steps:
- Spread 2 slices bread with hot pepper jelly.
- Layer one slice of bread with lettuce, ham, and Brie cheese. Top with other bread slice.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: Start with the best ingredients you can find, including fresh bread, salty ham, creamy brie, and sweet fruit preserves. The better the ingredients, the better your sandwich will taste.
- Spread the butter: Buttering the bread adds richness and helps to prevent the bread from becoming soggy. Use a good quality butter, such as unsalted butter or European-style butter.
- Don't skimp on the fillings: Be generous with the ham, brie, and fruit preserves. The more fillings you use, the more flavorful your sandwich will be.
- Toast the bread: Toasting the bread adds a nice crunch and helps to hold the sandwich together. You can toast the bread in a toaster or on a griddle.
- Assemble the sandwich carefully: Layer the fillings on the bread in a way that distributes the flavors evenly. You don't want one bite to be all bread and the next bite to be all ham.
- Serve immediately: Ham and brie sandwiches are best when served immediately after they are made. The bread will become soggy if you wait too long.
