2Croque-Monsieur
Croque-Monsieur is the French version of a grilled cheese sandwich, but elevated with béchamel sauce and ham. The bread is toasted with Gruyère or Emmental cheese, giving it a rich, gooey texture. There’s also a variation called Croque-Madame, which includes a fried egg on top. It’s a popular dish in French cafes and an ideal comfort food.
Best Paired With: A light, sparkling wine or a dry rosé to cut through the creaminess of the cheese.
