Servings: persons

1/4 head (about 3/4 pound) red cabbage, cored and finely sliced
2 tablespoons kosher salt
1 1/2 tablespoons Champagne vinegar
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon celery seeds
4 teaspoons Dijon mustard
8 slices brioche from a sandwich loaf, about 1/3 inch thick
1/4 pound Cowgirl Creamery Red Hawk, or other semisoft washed-rind cheese
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, or more as needed

1
For the pickled cabbage: Toss the cabbage with the salt in a colander and set aside to wilt for 30 minutes.
2
Rinse the cabbage thoroughly, then taste to be sure the rinsed cabbage is not too salty (if it is, rinse again).
3
Squeeze well to remove excess moisture.
4
In a nonreactive bowl, combine the wilted cabbage, vinegar, olive oil, sugar, and celery seed.
5
Mix well.
6
To assemble the sandwiches, spread Dijon mustard over 4 slices of bread, using about 1 teaspoon per slice.
7
Lay the 4 slices of bread, mustard side up, on the work surface.
8
Top each with 1/4 cup of the cabbage, then with 1 ounce of cheese in 2 or 3 slices.
9
Top with the second slice of bread and press lightly.
10
Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a 10-inch nonstick skillet over moderate heat.
11
Add 2 sandwiches to the pan and cook until browned, about 2 minutes, then turn and cook until the second side is browned and the cheese is molten, about 2 minutes longer.
12
Cut each sandwich in half on the diagonal and serve immediately.
13
Repeat with the remaining 2 sandwiches.
14
Enjoy with Cakebread Cellars Pinot Noir or another medium-bodied red wine.
