Servings: 12

 

Ingredients:

1 (11 oz) can of Pillsbury French Bread Crusty French Loaf dough

6 oz sliced deli ham (I used Hillshire Farm Deli Select Ultra Thin Honey Ham)

3 oz (3/4 cup) shredded 2% Sharp Cheddar cheese

4-6 teaspoons mustard, to taste (I used yellow mustard because I love it, but feel free to use a different kind)

Equipment:

oven

cutting board

baking sheet

pizza cutter

rolling pin

knife

Cooking instruction summary:

Pre-heat the oven to 350. Mist a baking sheet with cooking spray and set aside.Unpackage the bread dough onto a cutting board and look for the seam in the dough roll. Unroll the dough starting at the seam until you have a flat rectangle of dough. The dough should be about 11x15, if not you can use a rolling pin to make it more of an even rectangle. Using a pizza cutter or a knife, slice the dough rectangle down the middle along the longer side to make two long rectangles (about 5.5x15 each). Layer the sliced ham across the surface of one of the dough rectangles. Spread the mustard over top of the ham and then top by sprinkling the shredded cheddar over the mustard. Place the other dough rectangle over top of the ham and cheese and use your fingers to press the top layer of dough and bottom layer of dough together along all the edges.Using a pizza cutter or knife, slice the loaf into 12 even strips. One at a time, hold the end of each strip and twist in opposite directions to form twists and then lay them on the prepared baking sheet. Once all pieces are twisted and on the baking sheet, transfer them to the oven and bake for 23-28 minutes until the dough is golden.

Food Trivia

The fig is also a fertility symbol and the Arab association with male genitals is so strong that the original word 'fig' is considered improper.

Food Joke

The Passover test [My thanks to Jeff G for the following] Sean is waiting for a bus when another man joins him at the bus stop. After 20 minutes of waiting, Sean takes out a sandwich from his lunch box and starts to eat. But noticing the other man watching, Sean asks, "Would you like one? My wife has made me plenty." "Thank you very much, but I must decline your kind offer," says the other man, "I’m Rabbi Levy." "Nice to meet you, Rabbi," says Sean, "but my sandwiches are alright for you to eat. They only contain cheese. There’s no meat in them." "It’s very kind of you," says Rabbi Levy, "but today we Jews are celebrating Passover. It would be a great sin to eat a sandwich because during the 8 days of Passover, we cannot eat bread. In fact it would be a sin comparable to the sin of adultery." "OK," says Sean, "but it’s difficult for me to understand the significance of what you’ve just said." Many weeks later, Sean and Rabbi Levy meet again. Sean says, "Do you remember, Rabbi, that when we last met, I offered you a sandwich which you refused because you said eating bread on Passover would be as great a sin as that of adultery?" Rabbi Levy replies, "Yes, I remember saying that." "Well, Rabbi," says Sean, "that day, I went over to my mistress’s apartment and told her what you said. We then tried out both the sins, but I must admit, we just couldn’t see the comparison."
