REUBEN SANDWICH
Like many classic dishes, the Reuben sandwich has multiple origin stories: Some accounts trace its origins to the since-shuttered Reuben's delicatessen in New York City, where Arthur Reuben created a special for one of Charlie Chaplin's leading ladies in 1914, using ham, turkey, Swiss cheese and coleslaw on rye. Another origin story points to a customer, Reuben Kulakofsky, who was said to have ordered a corned beef and sauerkraut sandwich at Blackstone Hotel, in Omaha, where Bernard Schimmel obliged by rounding it out with Thousand Island dressing, Swiss cheese, rye bread and a hot grill. Today's Reuben sandwiches feature corned beef, sauerkraut, Swiss cheese and a healthy smear of Russian dressing between toasted, buttered rye. Homemade dressing has a brighter, fresher flavor than the bottled variety, and comes together in just a few turns of a whisk. To achieve the prized crispy crust and gooey cheese, keep the heat low enough to allow the buttered bread to toast while the cheese melts.

Steps:
- Make the Russian dressing: In a small bowl, combine all ingredients and mix well.
- Make the sandwiches: Spread one side of each bread slice with 1/2 tablespoon butter. In a large nonstick skillet, arrange 2 slices of bread, buttered side down, over medium-low heat. Spread 2 tablespoons of Russian dressing on each slice of bread, then top each with 1/4 pound corned beef, 1/4 cup sauerkraut and 2 slices cheese. Top each with 1 slice of bread, buttered side up. Cook until golden and crispy underneath, about 5 minutes. Flip the sandwiches and cook, pressing down gently with a spatula, until second side is golden and cheese melts, about 3 minutes more. Transfer sandwiches to plates and wipe out skillet. Repeat with the remaining bread, sauce, corned beef, sauerkraut and cheese. Serve warm.

Tips for Making the Best Reuben Sandwich
- Choose the right bread. Rye bread is the traditional choice for a Reuben sandwich, but you can also use other types of bread, such as sourdough or wheat bread. Just make sure that the bread is sturdy enough to hold up to the fillings.
- Use high-quality pastrami or corned beef. The pastrami or corned beef is the star of the Reuben sandwich, so it's important to use a high-quality product. Look for pastrami or corned beef that is well-marbled and has a deep, rich flavor.
- Don't skimp on the sauerkraut. Sauerkraut is an essential ingredient in a Reuben sandwich. It adds a tangy, sour flavor that perfectly complements the pastrami or corned beef. Be sure to drain the sauerkraut well before using it, so that the sandwich doesn't get soggy.
- Use a good quality Swiss cheese. Swiss cheese is another essential ingredient in a Reuben sandwich. It adds a creamy, nutty flavor that helps to balance out the tangy sauerkraut and the salty pastrami or corned beef. Look for a Swiss cheese that is well-aged and has a smooth, creamy texture.
- Spread the dressing on both sides of the bread. The dressing is what really brings all the flavors of a Reuben sandwich together. Be sure to spread it on both sides of the bread, so that every bite is packed with flavor.
- Grill the sandwich until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Grilling the sandwich helps to melt the cheese and bring all the flavors together. Cook the sandwich over medium heat, so that the bread doesn't burn.
Conclusion
The Reuben sandwich is a classic deli sandwich that is enjoyed by people of all ages. With its combination of salty pastrami or corned beef, tangy sauerkraut, creamy Swiss cheese, and flavorful dressing, it's easy to see why this sandwich is so popular. If you're looking for a delicious and satisfying sandwich, the Reuben is a great choice.
