ce of dark rye bread, cover with a layer of
mashed cold baked beans and a slice of ham, then one of Swiss
cheese and a wheel of Bermuda onion topped with mustard and a
sowing of capers.
I International Sandwich
Split English muffins and toast on the hard outsides, cover soft,
untoasted insides with Swiss cheese, spread lightly with mustard,
top that with a wheel of Bermuda onion and 1 or 2 slices of
Italian-type tomato. Season with cayenne and salt, dot with
butter, cover with Brazil nuts and brown under the broiler.
J Jurassiennes, or Croutes Comtoises
Soak slices of stale buns in milk, cover with a mixture of onion
browned in chopped lean bacon and mixed with grated Gruyere.
Simmer until cheese melts, and serve.
K Kuemmelkaese
If you like caraway flavor this is your sandwich: On
well-buttered but lightly mustarded rye, lay a thickish slab of
Milwaukee Kuemmelkaese, which translates caraway cheese. For good
measure sprinkle caraway seeds on top, or serve them in a saucer
on the side. Then dash on a splash of kuemmel, the caraway liqueur
that's best when imported.
L Limburger Onion or Limburger Catsup
Marinate slices of Bermuda onion in a peppery French dressing for
1/2 hour. Then butter slices of rye, spread well with soft
Limburger, top with onion and you will have something
super-duper--if you like Limburger.
When catsup is substituted for marinated onion the sandwich has
quite another character and flavor, so true Limburger addicts
make one of each and take alternate bites for the thrill of
contrast.
M Meringue, Open-faced (from the Browns' _10,000 Snacks_)
Allow 1 egg and 4 tablespoons of grated cheese to 1 slice of
bread. Toast bread on one side only, spread butter on untoasted
side, put 2 tablespoons grated cheese over butter, and the yolk
of an egg in the center. Beat egg white stiff with a few grains
of salt and pile lightly on top. Sprinkle the other 2 tablespoons
of grated cheese over that and bake in moderate oven until the
egg white is firm and the cheese has melted to a golden-brown.
N Neufchatel and Honey
We know no sandwich more ethereal than one made with thin,
decrusted, white bread, spread with sweet butter, then with
Neufchatel topped with some fine honey--Mount Hymettus, if
