What is the difference between a croque-madame and a croque monsieur? The sunny side egg that goes on top. This recipe comes to us courtesy of La Dijonaise in Culver City. Sarah Alexander of Los Angeles wrote to Culinary SOS to rave about how much her husband loves the French comfort food sandwich:
My husband and I have breakfast nearly every weekend at La Dijonaise in Culver City. He never orders anything except the croque-madame. It’s that good! How fun it’d be to be able to make it for him myself!
La Dijonaise kindly helped Times Test Kitchen manager Noelle Carter adapt their recipe for the home cook. If you have a request for Culinary SOS, e-mail noelle.carter@latimes.com and include your name, where you live, and a daytime phone number.
