Corned Beef with Muenster Cheese and Wilted Cabbage
- 1 cup thinly sliced green cabbage
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 1 teaspoon yellow mustard seeds
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
- Four 1/2-inch-thick slices rye bread with caraway seeds
- 1 tablespoon grainy mustard, or more to taste
- 12 thin slices (6 ounces) corned beef
- 6 thin slices (3 ounces) Muenster cheese
- Combine the cabbage, water, olive oil, salt, pepper, and mustard seeds in a small saucepan and heat over medium-high heat until the water comes to a boil.
- Turn the heat to medium-low, cover, and steam, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is very soft and completely wilted, 10 to 15 minutes.
- Use a slotted spoon to transfer the cabbage to a bowl, leaving any excess water in the pot, and set aside.
- Heat a panini or sandwich press according to the manufacturers instructions.
- Spread some butter on one side of each slice of bread.
- Put the bread, buttered sides down, on a cutting board.
- Spread mustard on two of the slices.
- Arrange the corned beef on top of the mustard.
- Spread an even layer of cabbage over the corned beef.
- Top with the cheese, then the remaining bread slices, buttered side up.
- Put the sandwiches on the press, pull the top down, and cook until they are browned and crisp and the corned beef is warmed through, 5 to 8 minutes, depending on how hot your machine is.
- Carefully remove from the press and serve immediately
