WE were dairy farmers for years, so we all enjoyed a hearty breakfast after morning milking. Having a bit of cheese satisfies the appetite and helps hold you over until the next meal. Since I always had a lot of cheddar cheese on hand, I used it in many of my recipes. -Helen Davis, Waterbury, Vermont

We're a small group of farmers based in the South West of England and we share a passion for the traditional art of cheesemaking. Every one of our Cheddars is made in the West Country, by West Country families using West Country milk. That's why we can call them West Country cheeses. Every one of our authentic cheeses is made on the farm. That's what makes them authentic Farmhouse cheeses. Every one of them is made by hand. That's why we can call them handmade. It's the care and expertise of our cheesemakers and the different geographical locations of our farms that gives each of our cheeses a character of its own. Our Farmhouse cheeses have a lingering, full-bodied and complex flavour with a start, a middle and an end, and their texture is substantial yet temptingly crumbly." www.farmhousecheesemakers.co.uk

Time 8m

Yield 4 Toasties, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

Ingredients

8 thick slices white bread, crusts removed
50 g lightly-salted butter (2 ounces)
225 g west country farmhouse cheddar cheese, grated (8 ounces)
4 tablespoons cranberry jelly

Steps:

Spread bread with half the butter in the normal way.
Top 4 slices with the grated cheese and spoon on cranberry jelly. Top with the remaining bread (butter side down) to make 4 sandwiches.
Gently fry the bread in the remaining butter until crisp and golden on both sides.
Cut into triangles and serve whilst warm with fresh seasonal salad leaves.

Tips:

Use a variety of cheeses: Cheddar is a classic, but don't be afraid to experiment with other types of cheese, such as mozzarella, Swiss, or Gruyère. You can even use a combination of cheeses for a more complex flavor.
Add some extras: Toasted cheese sandwiches are a blank canvas for creativity. Try adding some cooked bacon, ham, or avocado slices. You can also add a fried egg or some sautéed vegetables.
Use a good quality bread: The bread is just as important as the cheese in a toasted cheese sandwich. Use a sturdy bread that will hold up to the heat and not get soggy.
Spread the butter to the edges: This will help the sandwich brown evenly and prevent the bread from sticking to the pan.
Cook the sandwich over medium heat: This will help the cheese melt evenly without burning the bread.
Cover the pan while cooking: This will help the cheese melt faster and more evenly.
Flip the sandwich halfway through cooking: This will ensure that both sides of the sandwich are cooked evenly.
Serve the sandwich immediately: Toasted cheese sandwiches are best enjoyed hot and gooey.

Conclusion:

Grilled cheese sandwiches are a classic comfort food that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are quick and easy to make, and they can be customized to suit your own taste. Whether you like them simple or loaded with toppings, there's a grilled cheese sandwich out there for everyone. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give one of these recipes a try.
