- Deglaze the pan with beef stock and stir. Set aside.
- Take sourdough and spread about two teaspoons of mayonnaise on one side of the bread and about 2 T. of plum preserves on the other side.
- Turn your burner on medium to low heat and allow your pan to heat up nicely.
- Now place your bread, mayo side down into the pan.
