Tips
- Use a sturdy bread that can hold up to the fillings and the grilling process, such as sourdough, French bread, or a hearty multigrain bread.
- Spread the butter or mayonnaise on the outside of the bread, not the inside. This will help to create a crispy, golden crust.
- Use a generous amount of cheese. This is what makes a grilled cheese sandwich so gooey and delicious.
- Add your favorite fillings, such as cooked bacon, thinly sliced ham, or sautéed mushrooms.
- Cook the sandwich over medium heat until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the bread is golden brown and crispy.
- Serve the sandwich immediately with your favorite dipping sauce, such as tomato soup, chili, or ranch dressing.
