Cubano

Ingredients for Cubano

• 2 tablespoons kosher salt + 1 tablespoon

• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar

• 1 tablespoon ground mustard

• 900g boneless pork shoulder, tied in an even roll

• 80g di senape di Digione

• 1 teaspoon ground mace

• 2 tablespoons freshly ground black pepper

• 1 tablespoon Spanish smoked sweet paprika

• 4 (6-inch) light crisp-crusted bakery rolls

• 2 cucchiai di senape di Digione

• 350g best-quality domestic ham (unglazed), thinly sliced

• 110g Swiss or Gruyère cheese, thinly sliced

• 1 large dill pickle, thinly sliced lengthwise

• 2 cucchiai di burro non salato

To cure the pork, combine 2 tablespoons of the salt with the sugar and ground mustard. Rub the mixture all over the meat, cover, and set it in the refrigerator to cure for 6 hours.

Place a rack in the middle position and preheat the oven to 163°C.

To roast the pork, rinse it under cold running water to remove the seasoning. Pat dry with paper towels. Combine the Dijon mustard, mace, black pepper, paprika, and the remaining 1 tablespoon salt. Rub the mixture all over the meat. Set the pork in a roasting pan, cover tightly with aluminum foil, and cook until the internal temperature reaches 79°C, about 45 minutes. Allow the meat to cool completely before slicing.

To make the sandwiches, heat a sandwich press or griddle to medium-high. Split the bread lengthwise and pull it open. Spread the mustard on 1 side of each roll and layer on the roast pork, ham, cheese, and pickles. Spread the butter all over the outside of the sandwiches and griddle until the cheese is melted and the meats are warmed through, 3 to 4 minutes. (Alternatively, wrap the sandwich in foil and toast in a 177°C oven for 5 to 7 minutes.) Slice each in half on the diagonal and serve.
