BRITISH-STYLE CHEESE AND ONION SANDWICH FOR 2



British-Style Cheese and Onion Sandwich for 2 image

About a week ago I found a really good quality imported "extra mature farmhouse cheddar" cheese from the UK and decided to test it in this recipe which was recently featured on thekitchn.com. Use the best ingredients you can if at all possible: homemade bread and mayonnaise, etc. Q: I don't intend to step on any toes (especially British ones) but don't you think bacon/rashers would be delicious in this sandwich? A. yes. The bacon is optional of course. The husband discovered my secret stash of the farmhouse cheddar cheese and now most of it is gone! :/ Serving suggestion that we enjoyed with our sandwiches: Recipe #272915, hard boiled eggs and fresh fruit. I believe this is my first English recipe posted here but the fine English people have no cause for concern.

Time 10m

Yield 2 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 ounces cheese (such as Cheddar, Double Gloucester, Cotswold, or Red Leicester, for example)

salt and pepper
4 slices bread (toasted or untoasted)
2 -3 slices bacon, crisply cooked
butter (leftover Irish butter from St. Patrick's Day...)

Steps:

  • Grate the cheese. Combine in a bowl with the onions and mayonnaise. Add salt and pepper to taste.

  • If adding the optional bacon, arrange the slices on the bread.

ONION SANDWICH



Onion Sandwich image

James Beard took this recipe from his colleagues Irma and Bill Rhode over 60 years ago, but there's something delicate, fresh and unfussy about the sandwich even now. There isn't much to it, so each component really matters: Slice the onions thinly and evenly, season well, and be gentle so you don't squish the bread as you press each sandwich shut. Rolling the edge of the sandwich in chopped parsley (or a mix of parsley and other fresh herbs), gives it a retro styling touch, but it's crucial for flavor, too.

Categories     brunch, lunch, snack, finger foods, sandwiches, appetizer, main course

Time 20m

Yield 12 mini sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 loaf challah or brioche, sliced about 1/4-inch thick
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 to 2 sweet white onions, such as Vidalia
Crunchy sea salt, to taste
1 cup fresh herbs, such as parsley, or a mix of parsley, tarragon and marjoram, chopped

Steps:

  • Using a 1 1/2-inch cutter, cut 24 rounds from the bread and arrange in 12 pairs. Spread each round with mayonnaise.
  • Slice the onions through the equator, evenly and thinly, and put a slice that fits the bread on half the bread rounds. Salt lightly, then cover with a second round of bread.
  • When sandwiches are assembled, spread remaining mayonnaise on a piece of parchment paper, and have the chopped herbs ready in a bowl.
  • Hold a sandwich, and roll the edge in mayonnaise, then in the chopped herbs, covering the edge. Cover and chill for about 1 hour and up to 6 hours before serving.

GOOD O'CHEESE & ONION SANDWICH



Good O'Cheese & Onion Sandwich image

Was talking the other day with my neighbor friend about the good old days and our parents; when I remembered my Dad always eating a onion sandwich. I never would try it as a kid, but since then I love a big slice of onion on a lot of sandwiches I make. My friend told me about one that her Mother makes and I read the recipe and ask her for a copy. We tried it and with a big "WOW" this is so good. So now when I make this recipe I'll always think of my Dad back in his day eating his big slice of onion between two slices of bread.

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 - ounces of cheddar cheese
2 tablespoon(s) finely chopped sweet onion
2 tablespoon(s) finely sliced scallions, with greens
2 tablespoon(s) mayonnaise
- salt and peper to taste
4 - slices of bread, toasted or untoasted
- butter

Steps:

  • Grate the cheese in a bowl.
  • Add the onions and mayonnaise.
  • Salt and pepper to taste.
  • Mix all ingredients together.
  • Spread butter on your bread.
  • Spread onion mixture on one slice of bread and place the other slice of bread on top and cut in half.
  • *Really good served with your favorite soup.

Tips for Making the Best Grilled Cheese and Onion Sandwich:

  • Use high-quality bread. A sturdy, thick-sliced bread will hold up well to the heat of the grill and prevent the sandwich from becoming soggy. Look for a bread that is slightly crispy on the outside and soft and chewy on the inside.
  • Use a good melting cheese. A sharp cheddar, Gruyère, or fontina cheese will melt smoothly and evenly, and provide a delicious, gooey filling for your sandwich. You can also use a combination of cheeses to create a more complex flavor.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. When grilling your sandwich, make sure to leave enough space between the sandwiches so that they can cook evenly. Otherwise, the sandwiches will steam instead of grill, and the bread will become soggy.
  • Cook the sandwich until it is golden brown and the cheese is melted. This will ensure that the sandwich is cooked through and the cheese is nice and gooey. You can check the doneness of the sandwich by inserting a toothpick into the center. If the toothpick comes out clean, the sandwich is done.
  • Serve the sandwich immediately. Grilled cheese sandwiches are best enjoyed hot and gooey. Serve them with your favorite sides, such as tomato soup, potato chips, or a side salad.

Conclusion:

The grilled cheese and onion sandwich is a classic comfort food that is easy to make and delicious to eat. With a few simple tips, you can make the best grilled cheese and onion sandwich that you've ever tasted. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
