    Toasted ham and cheese with quality ingredients. It’s a tasty marriage of sweet sugar and salty ham, crisp toast and melty cheese.

    Best one I made was when staying in Antwerp. I got the cheese in Amersdam - a truffle gouda. Butter was also dutch, from memory, but I can’t recall exactly. Nice and salty. Bread was local - Suikerbrood. Sweet bread that browns easily. Ham was prosciutto from France somewhere.

    Have to put the butter on the outside and pan-fry slowly to ensure the cheese melts. The If you don’t have a sweet brioche bread, sprinkle sugar on the butter to get that crisp, sweet exterior.

      Whoa whoa whoa… Are you like very, very sure you made a toasted ham and cheese sandwich with… Suikerbrood? I’m 100% sure no Dutch person ever would dare to even think about abusing suikerbrood for that…

        Yes, very sure! It’s probably because I’m not Dutch that I even considered it. Turned out really well, had to use lower heat then you would for frying regular bread as not to burn.

          Hehe, I’m still not convinced, but perhaps I could give it a try. Thanks for the inspiration though!
