Instructions
In a large bowl, toss the cabbage with the vinegar, sugar and salt.
Let stand at room temperature, tossing occasionally, until softened, about 30 minutes.
Heat a panini press or griddle. Arrange the focaccia on a work surface, cut sides up. In a small bowl, combine the ketchup with the mayonnaise.
Spread the dressing on the bottom halves of the focaccia. Set a slice of Gruyre on the dressing. Top with the corned beef, pickled cabbage and the remaining slices of Gruyre. Close the sandwiches and spread the outsides of the focaccia with the softened butter.
Add the sandwiches to the press and cook over moderate heat until the cheese has melted and the focaccia is crisp and golden, about 6 minutes.
Cut each sandwich in half and serve right away.
Recommended wine: Chianti, Trebbiano, Verdicchio
Chianti, Trebbiano, and Verdicchio are my top picks for Italian. Italians know food and they know wine. Trebbiano and Verdicchio are Italian white wines that pair well with fish and white meat, while Chianti is a great Italian red for heavier, bolder dishes. You could try Caposaldo Chianti. Reviewers quite like it with a 5 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 13 dollars per bottle.
