You can use any fruit spread or preserves you wish on this sandwich: raspberry, peach, huckleberry, etc. This semisoft Danish cheese was created in the 19th century by cheese maker Hanne Nielsen, who studied European methods and then developed this cheese on HER farm in Denmark . (Source: ) Recipe from Delicious Living. Ingredients:
2 teaspoons unsalted butter, softened |
8 slices french bread, cut into 1/4-inch slices (i used whole wheat french) |
4 tablespoons fig fruit spread or 4 tablespoons preserves |
4 ounces havarti cheese, sliced |
1 large avocado, sliced |
fresh mint leaves, chopped (my addition) |
lemon juice |
cracked black pepper |
Directions:
1. Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Butter 4 bread slices on one side only.
2. Put the slices, buttered side down on a clean plate. Spread the fig preserves in a thin layer on EACH side of the bread slices.
3. Top with the Havarti chesse. Immediately after slicing up the avocado, drizzle with lemon juice to stop browning. Place a layer of avocado slices on the bread. Garnish with a few mint leaves and black pepper. Put the other slice of bread on top. Butter the tops.
4. Place 2 sandwiches in the pan and cook until golden brown and the Havarti cheese has started to melt, about 2-3 minutes.
5. Flip the sandwiches over and lightly press down with a spatula. Cook the other side until brown. Transfer to warming plate and cook the other two sandwiches.
6. Serve hot. Really delicious served with slices of tart green apples!
