Cooking tips

  • Don't spread the strawberry jam too thickly, as it can make the sandwich excessively sweet. Use a moderate amount.
  • Heat control is crucial for melting the cheese. Be careful not to burn the outside while the inside remains cold by cooking over high heat.
  • Using cooking oil instead of butter allows for longer cooking over low heat without burning, resulting in a beautiful color.
  • It's best to use sandwich ham for this recipe.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to relive the taste of their childhood.
  • Those looking for a sweet and savory snack.
  • Those who want to enjoy a simple brunch at home with a cafe-like atmosphere.
