Grilled cheese sandwich

Poll - Total Votes: 43
Definitely need three different kinds
Two is good enough for me.
I'm not fussy. One kind of cheese is all I need.
Don't forget bacon and tomatoes 😋

I was watching a professional chef talking about grilled cheese sandwiches. He said you have to have three different kinds of cheese. What are your thoughts on this?

Add an egg, and ham or bacon or sausage. But no tomato.

And use an English muffin.

@JoyfulSilence I like that! 😋😋😋

I love grilled cheese and tomato sandwiches
Musicman · 61-69, M
@nedkelly They are definitely popular.
@nedkelly Grilled cheese and tuna is great.

One is good enough, two is a special day type deal. But if I have two different types of cheeses then there has to be a slice of ham or some bacon between them.

Plasticky American, more plasticky American, even more plasticky American. 🤔

The chef should have said HE needs three kinds of cheese. One is enough for me.

One will do.

I think there’s a lot of ways to make grilled cheese, from the bread to the cheese to how it’s grilled, not to mention if anything gets added. That’s what makes it beautiful. There is no one definition of perfection, sort of like women.
If you’re craving a grilled cheese sandwich and have only 1 variety…that’s what you use…that is if you still want it.
or you add a few things.
I think he is pretentious.

Grilled cheese isn't cuisine it's comfort food.
@FreeSpirit1 That's what I hate most about celebrity chefs, I don't know a single one that isn't pretentious.
Musicman · 61-69, M
@FreeSpirit1 I agree with you.
Orca4950 · 70-79, M
3types or flavours of cheese with ham or bacon & tomato👍🏻
Orca4950 · 70-79, M
By the way I don't consider cheese toast to be in the same category.
Musicman · 61-69, M
@Orca4950 I love cheese toast. 😋😋😋😋

One slice of American and some bacon, and poof! An amazing sandwich!
DrWatson · 70-79, M
I just use 1, but I bet a blend of cheeses would taste really good.
CountScrofula · 41-45, M
I mean he's making a chef level grilled cheese. American cheese on wonderbread is still tasty but if you go "okay how do I make this better" you start asking questions about how to optimize.
Musicman · 61-69, M
@CountScrofula I definitely understand. A chef can't charge high dollar for two slices of American cheese on Wonder Bread. Or could he? 🤔

Well, in our everyday lives we are not ALL gourmet chefs. But I can definitely see where a grilled cheese with Danish Havarti, Gruyere, and Asiago would be awesome!
Musicman · 61-69, M
@4meAndyou I would definitely try that. 🙂
Zaphod42 · 46-50, M
Nah, American cheese is perfect for grilled cheese. The key is using mayo instead of butter for the grilling of it.
Musicman · 61-69, M
@Zaphod42 I have never heard of using mayonnaise before.
Zaphod42 · 46-50, M
@Musicman Gordon Ramsey suggested it on one of his shows, and damn if he wasn’t right.

I usually use sharp cheddar. That being said, I have had gourmet grilled cheese sandwiches and they are very good.
Musicman · 61-69, M
@Sevendays Yes they are! 😋😋😋
zeggle · 61-69, M
Medium chedder grilled on top of the tomatoes on top of toasted sliced bread is the only way to get it perfect.
Penny · 46-50, F
professional cooking is generally very pretentious
NCCindy · 36-40, F
Few things are better than a good grilled cheese sandwich
2ndtimeguy · 61-69, M
Needs to be very thick cheese slices
Musicman · 61-69, M
@2ndtimeguy The American was a whole slice. For the rest he grated the cheeses.
Honestly, just one for me!
Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
We just use one...
Musicman · 61-69, M
@Justmeraeagain I don't blame you. We use two.
What were the cheeses?
Musicman · 61-69, M
@thewindupbirdchronicles American, cheddar and mozzarella.
@Musicman I might add Havarti with some jalapeño.
Musicman · 61-69, M
@thewindupbirdchronicles That is one of the cheeses I use at home. It melts really well.
pancakeslam · 41-45, M
that's like a professional architect talking about building a Lego
NinaTina · 26-30, F
Just use this

i only make grilled cheese with kraft singles and wonder bread
honest to god kraft singles
the way Jesus would
-sandwich kraft singles between 2 slices of wonder bread
-spread butter on the outside of sandwich
-cook in skillet over medium heat until cheese is melted and sandwich is golden brown on both sides
-enjoy with tomato soup on a rainy day
life is good
Two makes a great flavor combo, three can cause clashing.
Musicman · 61-69, M
@NativePortlander1970 I have had It on a steak and cheese. 😋😋😋
@Musicman Another great combo :) Meunster goes with everything.
@Musicman It's mild enough that it doesn't clash, it often tames more heavier flavors, like Swiss, and a smooth melting texture truly compliments burgers and other hot sammiches.
