π§ Grilled Cheese Sandwich: The Golden Classic of Comfort Food
Ingredients:
-
2 slices of bread (white, sourdough, or whole wheat)
-
2β3 slices of cheese (cheddar, American, or your favorite melting cheese)
-
1β2 tbsp butter (softened)
-
Optional: tomato slices, cooked bacon, or a sprinkle of herbs
Instructions:
-
Prep the bread:
Spread butter evenly on one side of each slice. This will give that golden, crispy exterior. -
Assemble the sandwich:
Place the cheese slices between the unbuttered sides of the bread. Add any extras if you like. -
Cook it right:
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place the sandwich in the pan, buttered side down.
Cook 2β4 minutes until golden brown, then flip carefully and cook the other side until the cheese melts. -
Serve immediately:
Cut in half for that classic gooey pull. Perfect with tomato soup or a side salad!
π₯ Tip: For ultra-melty cheese, cover the pan for a minute while cookingβit traps heat and melts the cheese evenly.
