Directions


  1. Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat

  2. Combine the tomatoes, tarragon, parsley, shallots, olive oil, and red wine vinegar in a bowl. Reserve

  3. Spread an even amount of butter on one side of each slice of bread

  4. Place the buttered bread side down in the pan, working in batches to accommodate the size of the skillet

  5. Place a few slices of Taleggio on each piece of bread. Top with a bit of the marinated tomatoes, then top with a few slices of prosciutto and another slice of bread butter side up

  6. When the bottom slice of bread is golden brown and toasted, flip sandwiches and brown the other side

  7. If the cheese isn’t completely melted, flip sandwiches one more time, being careful to avoid it getting too dark

  8. Remove sandwiches from the pan, cut in half, and serve immediately
