"To assemble, grill or pan-fry burgers, melt Swiss cheese on top, layer with pickles, and smear a mustard-and-mayo mixture on the bun."
"To achieve the classic pressed style of a Cubano, place the assembled burger back on the grill, toasting both sides while pressing gently with a spatula."
"For an authentic Cuban burger experience, use crusty Cuban bread; if unavailable, French baguette slices can be a suitable alternative."
