Kolek planning to go pro
Did some research via Google. Several articles state that a grilled cheese is bread, cheese, and up to one spread. Add anything else and it is a "melt."One article even said all grilled cheese sandwiches are melts but not all melts are grilled cheese sandwiches.So I've been making melts this whole time and calling them grilled cheese.
What about multiple cheeses, or unconventional cheeses like cottage cheese or cream cheese?
Why would anyone want to add cottage cheese? That stuff is vile.
Bacon grease versus milk for Mac and Cheese, anyone?
My favorite grilled cheese includes 8-year aged Cedar Grove cheddar, with a spread of cottage cheese mixed with diced olives and pimentos on brioche. Need to do it on a low heat because the aged cheddar takes longer to melt.
Wow, I'm very concerned for Benny. Being able to mimic Myron Medcalf's writing so closely implies an oncoming case of dementia.
FYI to all - Cedar Grove cheddar is the best grilling cheese in the country. Best cheese curds, too... especially when fresh.
I haven't had Cedar Grove curds, but Clock Shadow Creamery in the Third Ward has some amazing curds. Worth a trip every Wednesday and Saturday for the fresh ones.
Never heard of maple syrup that's a new one to me. Is it a regional thing?
Clock Shadow is awesome! We go whenever we are in Milwaukee.Technically, I’m pretty sure it’s in Walker’s Point.
We got it from my grandpa. Western iowa/south Dakota roots. German heritage. Was shocked that everyone didn't eat grilled cheese that way.
What do these "sources" say about a hot dog? Is it a sandwich or not?
So do you put the syrup on top and eat it with utensils, like French toast?
Pour syrup on the plate and dip. Like a French dip, but with grilled cheese and syrup.And just bread, butter on the outside and cheese. Anything else is a hot sandwich.
Interesting. Never woulda guessed. Might try one for something different.Now the really big question for everyone who does this - you do use real maple syrup, and not corn syrup with artificial flavoring...right?
