Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Onion

    Slice the onion thinly. If desired, you can sauté the onion in a tablespoon of butter until golden and softened.

    Prepare the Bread

    Spread a thin layer of butter on one side of each slice of bread.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Sandwich

    On the unbuttered side of two slices, spread a tablespoon of Dijon mustard. Layer with liverwurst, then add the sautéed (or raw) onion slices.

  4. 4

    Complete the Sandwich

    Top with the remaining slices of bread, buttered side out.

  5. 5

    Cook the Sandwich

    Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove from skillet, slice in half if desired, and serve warm.
