Sandwich of the week:

Apple, Gruyre, and arugula on sourdough:

-Real sourdough, please. Don't use that fake stuff. Sliced, of course.

-Sliced apple. I prefer to use Fuji, or Granny Smith. They provide the right amount of tartness.

-Gruyre cheese. Sliced. I don't think the deliciousness of Gruyre needs to be explained.

-Arugula: A perfect balance and foil to the apple.

Sear the apple slices in a well heated pan with a bit of butter--just enough to brown and wilt a bit. Remove and set aside. Then, toast the sourdough in the pan with a bit of butter; olive oil is also acceptable. Add the Gruyre slices, turn down heat, and melt the cheese. Once the cheese is melted, remove from pan and set on a plate, duh. Add apple and arugula, and put together in sandwich form. Duh, again. Slice diagonally, of course.

Enjoy like a mofo.
