Cooking 107 ~ Gourmet Sandwiches

Last week we had October's SdJ Cooking Class and now I realize I never put up pictures or details of September's class....Jeez....Loser! So here it is.

Gourmet Sandwiches were the feature item for the 
September Cooking Class. 

Wait a minute....Disclosure  here:  I either have the shittiest camera ever OR I am the shittiest photog ever, (or both) but these pictures suck!  The food was good, ok it was pretty great and we hardly had any wine *coughbullshitcough* so I really can't understand why these pictures are so, well....shitty. 

 

Here was the menu:

Grilled Jalapeno Cornbread with Caramelized Chipotle Onions, Smashed Black Beans, and Cheddar 

Classic Croque Monsieur

Portobello Sandwiches with Roasted Garlic-Basil Aioli

Balsamic Roasted Cherries, Godiva Chocolate,

and Brie Grilled Cheese 

The Brie, Cherry and Chocolate Grilled Cheese. To. Die. For.

Here's Chef Vicki putting the finishing touches on the 
Jalapeno Cornbread Sandwiches.

Uh oh...we dug into the Portobello Sammie 
before someone remembered to take a picture.

That same someone forgot the take a pix of the Croque Monsieur, but it was really great. It's basically a gooey grilled ham and Gruyere cheese sandwich, topped with bechamel sauce and then popped back under the broiler until the sauce is bubbly and lightly browned. It's delish, so I'll post the recipe. You can check it out here or under the "Sandwiches" tab.

Some of the amazing chefs, taking a break after all that cooking.
Gawd they don't even look dirty and sweaty...they must not have really been in kitchen!

The Jalapeno Cornbread Sandwich with Chipotle Caramelized Onions can also be found under the "Sandwiches" tab.
