đ§ Ingredienser

- 8 slices Rye bread
- 8 slices Swiss cheese
- 1 cup Sauerkraut
- 1/2 cup Russian dressing
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter

Prepare the Sauerkraut: If your sauerkraut is not pre-drained, place it in a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth and gently squeeze out as much liquid as possible. This is crucial to prevent a soggy sandwich. Set aside.
â±ïž 2 minutes - 2
Assemble the Sandwiches: Lay out 4 slices of rye bread. Spread approximately 2 tablespoons of Russian dressing evenly over each slice. Top each with a generous layer of corned beef (about 1/4 lb per sandwich).
â±ïž 5 minutes - 3
Add the Sauerkraut and Cheese: Evenly distribute the drained sauerkraut over the corned beef on each sandwich. Place 2 slices of Swiss cheese on top of the sauerkraut for each sandwich.
â±ïž 3 minutes - 4
Top and Butter: Place the remaining 4 slices of rye bread on top of the cheese. Spread about 1 tablespoon of softened butter evenly over the top slice of each sandwich.
â±ïž 2 minutes - 5
Grill the Sandwiches: Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium heat (approximately 175°C / 350°F). Carefully place the sandwiches, butter-side down, onto the hot surface. While the first side is grilling, spread the remaining butter on the exposed top slices of bread.
â±ïž 4-5 minutes - 6
Flip and Continue Grilling: Once the bottom slice is golden brown and toasted, carefully flip the sandwiches using a spatula. Continue to grill for another 4-5 minutes, or until the second side is golden brown and the Swiss cheese is fully melted and gooey.
â±ïž 4-5 minutes - 7
Serve: Remove the sandwiches from the skillet. Let them rest for a minute before slicing them diagonally in half. Serve immediately, traditionally accompanied by dill pickles.

- âFor extra richness, you can lightly butter the inside of the bread slices as well.
