Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 tablespoons butter softened, salted
  • 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1/2 teaspoon celery seed
  • 2 g pkg Brie cheese best quality
  • 4 small lobster tail cooked
  • 12 asparagus cooked spears
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt fine sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
  • 8 lices country bread rustic
  • 2 preserved lemon rind cut in thin strips (optional

Instructions

  1. Have all ingredients at room temperature. Preheat a large cast-iron or non-stick skillet over medium-low heat.
  2. In a small bowl, cream together the soft butter, mayonnaise and celery seed with the back of a spoon. Cut the Brie into ¼ inch slices, about 16 total – 4 per sandwich.
  3. Use a sharp knife to slice the lobster tails in half lengthwise and remove them from the shell. Cut in half lengthwise again; the pieces should be about ½ inch thick. Blot them on a clean tea towel to remove any extra moisture.
  4. Trim the asparagus to fit the bread. Season both the lobster and the asparagus lightly with sea salt and black pepper.
  5. Spread the celery seed butter evenly on both sides of the bread. Top half the bread with 2 slices of cheese. Pile on the lobster and asparagus, dividing it between the four sandwiches. Sprinkle on the preserved lemon, if using, then top with the remainder of the Brie and finally, the last of the buttered bread. You should have 4 completed sandwich stacks.
  6. Using a spatula, carefully transfer the sandwiches to the heated pan. Cook for 5 minutes per side, or until the bread is golden brown and the Brie is melting.Transfer to a cutting board and slice the sandwiches in half. Serve hot.

Notes

  • Low ‘n slow is the best method for grilled cheese perfection. Don't rush the process.
