How Do You Make A Gourmet Grilled Cheese Sandwich?
Grilled cheese sandwiches have been around what seems like forever. Usually grilled cheese has been associated with kid food. This recipe for a grilled cheese sandwich elevates grilled cheese from kid food to gourmet food. Gather your ingredients. Get a high quality bread. I like to get a loaf of French bread fresh from the bakery. Slice the bread to your desired thickness. I like my bread about 1/2 to 1 inch thick. You also need 2 types of cheese, preferably white. Provolone, Fontina, and Havarti are nice choices. You will also need a slice of tomato, honey, and basil (the basil is optional). Melt a little butter in a frying pan. Brown 2 slices of your bread on one side and flip over. Add one slice of cheese to each piece of bread. Once the bread is brown and the cheese is melted, remove it from the pan. Add your tomato, a small drizzle of honey, and basil. Try other options such as adding apples, bacon, lettuce, or meat to your grilled cheese.
