Ham-Taleggio Grilled Cheese

1. 1

   Melt 1 tablespoon butter with the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat.

2. 2

   Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and caramelized, about 20 minutes.

3. 3

   (For a shortcut, use onion marmalade in place of the caramelized onions.)

4. 4

   Lay out 4 slices of bread.

5. 5

   Top with half the cheese, then half the ham.

6. 6

   Layer the caramelized onions, apple slices and the remaining ham and cheese on top, then the remaining bread slices.

7. 7

   Wipe out the skillet; melt 1 tablespoon butter over medium-low heat.

8. 8

   Add 2 sandwiches and cook, pressing gently with a spatula, until the bottom is golden and the cheese begins to melt, about 4 minutes.

9. 9

   Flip and cook until golden, about 4 more minutes.

10. 10

    Repeat with the remaining butter and sandwiches.
