Notes

The classic reuben was always assembled then cooked in a frying pan. Making one in your sandwich press not only saves on washing up but keeps it slightly healthier because the bread doesn't have to be buttered on the outside as for pan-frying. Plus, the cheese melts inside the sandwich without oozing out into the pan.
