Gather @rustic bread{180%g}, @cooked ham{120%g} and @gruyère cheese{100%g}.

Heat the broiler, or the oven to 230°C, with a rack in the upper third.

Lightly toast the bread slices until just golden, then let them cool a minute.

Spread each slice with @butter{12%g}, then a thin layer of @dijon mustard{4%tsp} right to the edges.

Layer ham over each slice in loose folds rather than laying it flat, then top with a slice of @tomato{1}.

Cover generously with grated gruyère, right out to the crusts.

Broil until the cheese is fully melted and blistered gold in spots, 3 to 5 minutes — watch closely, broilers vary a lot. ~{4%minutes}

Finish with a crack of @black pepper{} and serve immediately, while the cheese is still pulling.
