GRILLED CHEESE SANDWICH



Grilled Cheese Sandwich image

The trick to great grilled cheese sandwiches isn't in the ingredients, but on the stove. Achieving a golden, crusty outside and oozy inside takes a little patience: if the heat is too high, the outside will scorch before the cheese melts. Cooking the slices separately at first gives the cheese a good head start. There's no need to search out artisanal loaves or local cheese (though they won't hurt), but definitely do not use homemade mayonnaise. Mustard, chutney or even strawberry jam (believe it) can be dabbed on the cheese as it melts, or add ham, prosciutto or slices of apple or tomato (drain on paper towels first). You can use any melting cheese, such as American, Muenster or Swiss, but not too much: part of the perfection here is in the proportion of bread to cheese.

Time 15m

Yield 1 sandwich

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 slices bread, either soft sandwich squares or large peasant-style slices, not more than 1/2 inch thick
Butter
Mayonnaise
1 to 2 ounces grated cheddar (or other cheese), depending on size of bread

Steps:

  • Heat a heavy pan over medium-low heat.
  • Thinly spread one side of each bread slice with butter. Spread the other side of each slice with mayonnaise and place the bread, mayonnaise-side-down, in the pan. Divide the cheese evenly on top of the buttered slices. Adjust the heat so the bread sizzles gently.
  • When the cheese is about halfway melted, use a spatula to flip one slice over on top of the other, and press lightly to melt. Keep turning the sandwich, pressing gently, until the sandwich is compact, both sides are crusty, and the cheese is melted.

Categories     main-dish

Time 15m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 slices white sandwich bread, such as country white bread
4 teaspoons salted butter, at room temperature
4 slices American cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat a griddle or nonstick skillet to medium-low. Spread 2 teaspoons of the butter on one side of a bread slice. Repeat with the remaining butter and bread. Place one of the slices butter-side down and shingle the cheese on top, covering the entire surface. Top with the other slice of bread, butter-side up.
  • Place the sandwich on the griddle and cook until the bottom is golden brown and crisp, 3 to 4 minutes. If the bread is browning too quickly, shift the griddle off the heat. Flip the sandwich, then cover with a small metal bowl and cook until the bottom is golden brown and the cheese is melted, 3 to 4 minutes. Once golden brown on both sides, toast the edges of the sandwich, if desired. Transfer to a cutting board, cut in half on the bias and serve immediately.

GRILLED CHEESE SANDWICH



Grilled Cheese Sandwich image

If you use thinner, presliced sandwich bread, you will need to reduce the amount of cheese and butter in the sandwich. Instead, use 1 1/2 ounces of cheese per sandwich (using a single layer of cheese) and coat the outer sides of the bread with a little less butter.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Lunch Recipes

Yield Makes 2 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 4

4 slices white sandwich bread, such as pain de mie (Pullman), about 1/2-inch thick
Monterey Jack cheese, cut in 1/8-inch thick slices (about 2 ounces)
Cheddar cheese, cut in 1/8-inch thick slices (about 2 ounces)
Unsalted butter, room temperature

Steps:

  • Heat a large cast-iron or heavy metal skillet over medium-low heat. Place two slices of bread on a work surface, and cover each with a layer of Monterey Jack and a layer of cheddar cheese; top with the remaining slices of bread. Generously butter both outer sides of the sandwiches, spreading butter all the way to the edges of the bread.
  • Place the sandwiches in the skillet, and press down only lightly with the back of a spatula. Cook until golden brown on each side, and the cheese has completely melted, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Cut in half lengthwise, and serve immediately.
