Sandwich au Foie Gras
Foie gras mi-cuit on salted toast, no jam, no fruit. The Southwest's plainest luxury leans on the half-cooked terrine and a glass of Sauternes instead of fixing the fat on the plate.

Crab sandwich; Brittany's Atlantic catch.
Sandwich au Confit de Canard
Duck leg salted, slow-cooked in its own fat, then shredded warm into a baguette with a spoon of fig confit and the skin crisped back through the meat.
Sandwich au Comté
Comté in a baguette, where the only real choice is the age of the wheel: a supple four-month make eats fruity and milky, a crystalline two-year make eats salty, dense, and long.
Sandwich au Chèvre
One goat cheese, three sandwiches: a soft young chèvre spreads cold, a firm bûche slices, a dry aged round goes under the broiler instead, which is the whole reason chèvre chaud exists at all.
Sandwich au Charolais
Charolais is a breed before it is a cut: lean white cattle from Burgundy's hedge-bound bocage, needing almost no dressing beyond thin rare slices shingled on a baguette with salted butter or mustard.
Sandwich au Chaource
Chaource's bloomy-rind paste smears under a knife, so the sandwich is built around that fragility: thick wedges laid, not pressed, on bread that needs no butter for a cheese already 50 percent fat.
Sandwich au Chabichou
Chabichou du Poitou runs on a clock: fudgy and mild at ten days, dry and sharp by two months, the wrinkled rind telling you which cheese you are about to cut before the knife goes in.
