Ingredients
2 6-inchbaguettes
12slicesof prosciutto
6ouncesraclette cheese slices
Dijon mustardto taste
Cornichons*
Green onionschopped, for toppings
Pickled onionsoptional, for toppings
Instructions
Slice the baguettes lengthwise and lightly toast in the oven. (We broil ours at a low temperature for 1-2 minutes to just give it a little crunchy bread feel, but not brown it.) Remove from oven and allow to cool to handle.
After bread has cooled enough to touch, cut bread sections in half (to make four small sandwiches) OR leave them for 2 large sandwiches.
Add Dijon mustard on one side of bread. Layer 2-3 slices of prosciutto and pickled onions (optional) on top of mustard. Set aside.
In a small non-stick pan over low heat, melt the raclette cheese. (We use 2-3 slices for each sandwich.) Stir occasionally so it does not burn.
When cheese is completely melted, slide it onto the sandwiches on top of mustard, proscuitto, and pickled onions. Top with Cornichon pickles, green onions, and other slice of bread. Serve immediately and enjoy!
Notes
*If you can't find Cornichon pickles, you can use Gherkins or any mini mild dill pickle.
