Café Muses Grilled Cheese Sandwich Recipes

CAFé MUSE'S GRILLED CHEESE SANDWICH

Steps:

• Butter bread on one side with softened butter. Place in an oven-proof sauté pan large enough for 2 slices of bread, butter side down, over medium-low heat. Put mozzarella on one slice of bread and Fontina and Havarti on the other. Cook until golden on bottom and cheese begins to melt.
• Place tomatoes on the mozzarella side and a drizzle of honey on the Fontina/Havarti side. Slide pan under broiler for a few minutes to broil the tomatoes.
• Sprinkle basil as desired on top of the tomato, assemble sandwich, and serve.

GRILLED CHEESE SANDWICH ON THE GRILL

Steps:

• Prepare a charcoal or gas grill for medium heat. (Medium is 325 degrees to 375 degrees. You should be able to hold your hand 4 to 5 inches above the grates for 6 to 7 seconds.)
• Thinly spread mayonnaise on one side of each piece of bread. When you're ready to grill, take the bread, cheese, salt and a spatula to the grill. Clean the grates with a grill brush. (No need to grease the grates.) Place the slices mayonnaise side down on the grill. Evenly sprinkle half the slices with about 3/4 cup cheese. Cover the grill and cook until the bread is golden and the cheese is nearly all melted, 4 to 6 minutes. Check on the bread often, moving slices around the grill as needed to avoid burning.
• Use the spatula or your hands to top the cheese halves with the other toasted slices. Transfer to plates, press down slightly and sprinkle with salt.

GRILLED CHEESE SANDWICH

Steps:

• Preheat skillet over medium heat. Generously butter one side of a slice of bread. Place bread butter-side-down onto skillet bottom and add 1 slice of cheese. Butter a second slice of bread on one side and place butter-side-up on top of sandwich. Grill until lightly browned and flip over; continue grilling until cheese is melted. Repeat with remaining 2 slices of bread, butter and slice of cheese.
