Cuban sandwiches<\/strong> have a way of making a simple meal feel memorable. The first time I made Cuban sandwiches at home, the press popped open and you could hear the bread crackle. Everyone at the table paused for a moment, and I could tell from the first bite that this would become one of those recipes we return to all the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019ve never had one, a Cuban sandwich<\/strong> is a classic made with crispy toasted bread, roast pork, ham, Swiss cheese, pickles and mustard, pressed until everything melts together. It\u2019s familiar and comforting, but there\u2019s something about the balance of salty, tangy and warm that stays with you long after the plate is empty. That\u2019s the magic of a good Cuban sandwich<\/strong> recipe: nothing complicated, just really good ingredients treated the right way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I usually make Cuban sandwiches on weeknights when everyone\u2019s starving and we need to eat fast. They’re also a hit on weekends if friends come over. There\u2019s never anything left. People always ask how to make them at home, and it\u2019s really not that hard. Just get good bread, some flavorful pork and a hot press. That\u2019s it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
