Reuben Foldovers
My Aunt Freda loved Sandwiches! I am a bit like her in that respect, I love Sandwiches too. I have never really found a sandwich I didn't like. Admittedly I like some more than others and I do have my favourites, Reuben Sandwiches being one of them . . . hot pastrami, layered with sauerkraut, cheese and Thousand Island dressing, between two slices of good rye bread . . . what's not to love!
As soon as I saw the products in my latest Degustabox I knew I wanted to use the Deli Kitchen Brioche Folded Flatbreads to create a tasty recipe. They just looked so tasty. Brioche?? Hello! Flatbread??? Double Hello!
Every month I am the lucky recipient of a Degustabox. Once a month, around the middle of the month, I am sent one of these lovely boxes which contain a delicious assortment of all things foodie. I just love these boxes. Opening each one is tiny a bit like opening a Christmas gift. Always a surprise, and always filled with things that pique my interest and desire to try. Degustabox is a monthly foodie subscription service that sends out a range of 10 to 15 specially selected foodie products.
One thing I also enjoy the challenge each month is creating a recipe using at least one of the products included in the box. Sometimes they immediately jump out at me, and sometimes I need to chew them a bit in my head. When I saw the products in the February box I knew exactly what I wanted to do.
First let me tell you about the February Box, which was called the Degusta & Chill box!

DELI KITCHEN Folded Brioche Flatbreads 2 X £1.25
Deli Kitchen wants to inspire consumers to branch out from the traditional lunch options of sliced sandwiches and salads and try their new range inspired by breads from across the globe. This brioche folded flatbread is a rich, melt in the mouth flatbread. Perfect for burgers or with griddled steak and gooey cheese.
And as you know this was the product I decided to highlight by creating a recipe that I could use some of them in.
Reuben Foldovers. Quick and easy to make, and oh so delicious!
These brioche flatbreads are oh so delicious! Soft and rich and perfect for a hot sandwich such as this!
I buy my Pastrami at Costco. Its just perfect . . . thin slices, edges coated with spicy black pepper . . .
I use Jarlesburg cheese slices, which is a type of Swiss cheese. It melts beautifully and has a lovely flavour which goes well with the saltiness and spiciness of the pastrami . . .
Sauerkraut adds a lovely level of flavour . . . slightly sour and tangy. I adore sauerkraut. I can eat it right out of the jar with a fork. Love it to bits.
Then of course there is the Thousand Island Dressing. It add a levely of rich and creamy tang which goes very well with everything else.
You can use any ready-made variety you like. Hellman's is good . . .
I make my own using mayo (3/4 cup), tomato ketchup (3 TBS), 2 TBS sweet pickle relish, 1 TBS lemon juice (or white vinegar) and some seasoning. (I use seasoning salt.) Easy peasy.
Altogether this is one fabulous sandwich that is quick to put together and makes a nice lunch or light supper. I served some potato chips on the side.
