Mini Sage And Fontina Grilled Cheese Sandwiches Recipes

FONTINA & SAGE GRILLED CHEESE

Steps:

• In a small saucepan over low heat, heat the olive oil, sage and pepper until warm to the touch. Turn off the heat and let it infuse while you assemble the sandwiches.
• Place the cheese, divided evenly, on two slices of bread. Take care to bring the cheese all the way to the edge of the crust. Top each with a second slice of bread and press flat.
• Lay a heavy or weighted cutting board on top of the sandwiches for 10 to 20 minutes.
• Use a pastry brush to spread the sage oil lightly on both sides of the sandwiches. Make sure you go all the way to the edges and distribute the sage and pepper evenly.
• Heat a cast-iron pan or griddle over low heat. Sprinkle with a few drops of olive oil, then rub it over the whole cooking surface with a paper towel.
• Add the sandwiches and cook, weighted with another heavy pan or a steak weight, until golden, about 2 to 3 minutes per side.
• Keep the heat low so you don't burn the sage or pepper.
• Remove the sandwiches to a cutting board, and cut each in half or in quarters.
• Serve immediately.
