  1. Croque Monsieur This recipe is from France. Croque-Monsieur means 'Crispy Mister' in English! A Croque-Monsieur is a French-style, toasted sandwich, traditionally made with ham and cheese. While the origins of the Croque-Monsieur are unknown, there are many stories about how it was first made. One story is that, a long time ago, there were French workers who would bring their sandwiches to work with them. Some would bring ham and cheese and, since they didn't have coolers or refrigerators, they would leave their lunches by the radiators, and the cheese would melt!

  4. The Bridge Hold First, twist the stalk from the tomato. Place the tomato onto the chopping board. Make a bridge over the tomato with your hand. Your fingers should be on one side and your thumb should be on the other. Pick up the knife with your other hand and check that the blade is facing downwards. Then, guide the knife under the bridge and over the tomato. Cut into the tomato by pressing the knife down and pulling it out of the bridge.  You might like to think of the knife as a train which goes under the bridge.
