TUNA MELT RECIPE - NYT COOKING
Legend has it that the tuna melt was accidentally invented in the 1960s at the Woolworth’s lunch counter in Charleston, S.C., when the cook didn’t notice that a bowl of tuna salad had tipped over onto a grilled cheese. We may never know if this story is true, but there’s no doubt that the tuna melt has become a classic American diner food. This recipe adds chopped cornichons and whole-grain mustard for a satisfying crunch and vinegary element. Extra-sharp Cheddar is a must, and as with grilled cheese, the key to achieving perfectly melted cheese and golden bread is to toast the sandwich over medium-low heat. If you prefer an open-face tuna melt, skip the top piece of bread and place the sandwich on a sheet pan under the broiler until the cheese melts.

  • Meanwhile, spread the top of the each sandwich with another 1/2 tablespoon butter. Carefully flip the sandwiches, turn the heat to low, and cook for 3 to 4 more minutes, until the bottoms are browned and the cheese is melted. Repeat with the remaining two sandwiches and serve immediately.

  • Heat the oil in a frying pan over a low heat. Add the sandwich and immediately sit a clean, small, flat-bottomed saucepan on top with a tin inside to squash the toastie down. Fry for 4–5 minutes, or until the bottom is crisp and golden and the filling is starting to ooze – if it browns quicker than this the filling won’t be melted enough. Flip and repeat to cook the other side. If it’s perfectly toasted but the filling is not quite melted enough, pop in the microwave for a minute. Serve immediately.
