Truffled Brioche Grilled Cheese With Tomato Bisque Recipes

BUTTERY BRIOCHE GRILLED CHEESE

Steps:

• Heat a griddle over medium heat.
• Buzz the Cheddar, Gruyere, Robiola, prosecco, parsley, mustard and garlic in a food processor until combined but still chunky and spreadable. Spread the mixture among the bread slices. Sandwich 2 slices, spread 1 tablespoon of the butter on the outside of the sandwich and season with salt and pepper. Repeat with the remaining ingredients.
• Griddle the sandwiches over medium heat until golden brown on the first side. Flip over and continue to cook until the cheese is melted and the exteriors are crispy, about 5 minutes.

DOUBLE-DECKER TRUFFLED GRILLED CHEESE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Melt 3 tablespoons butter with 1 teaspoon truffle oil in an ovenproof skillet over medium heat. Add 2 slices bread, and toast on both sides. Set the toast aside and reserve the skillet.
• Lay out one slice of untoasted bread. Top with one-quarter each of the brie, figs and jack cheese, then a slice of toasted bread, then another layer of brie, figs and jack. Close with a slice of untoasted bread. Repeat to make another double-decker sandwich.
• Melt the remaining 3 tablespoons butter with the remaining 1 to 2 teaspoons truffle oil in the skillet over medium heat. Add the sandwiches and cook until golden on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Flip and cook until golden on the other side, about 2 more minutes, then transfer the skillet to the oven and cook until the cheese is melted, 6 to 8 minutes. Serve with the fig preserves.
