Ingredients for Appetizer Sandwiches

  • Prepared Mustard
  • 1 tablespoon poppy seeds
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped onion

How to Make Appetizer Sandwiches

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a small bowl, melt 1/4 cup (57g) of butter or margarine. Stir in 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon poppy seeds, 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce, and 1/4 cup finely chopped onion.
  3. Slice open sandwich rolls and spread the butter mixture evenly on both sides of each roll.
  4. Top each roll with 2-3 slices of deli ham and 1-2 slices of your favorite cheese (cheddar, Swiss, or provolone work well).
  5. Close the rolls and place them on a baking sheet.
  6. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the rolls are lightly golden brown.
  7. Let cool slightly before cutting into small, bite-sized pieces and serving.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
