Tips:

  • Use a variety of breads for different flavor combinations. Sourdough, whole wheat, and rye are all great options.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different cheeses. A classic cheddar is always a good choice, but you can also try mozzarella, Gruyère, or Brie.
  • Add-ins like sliced apples, caramelized onions, or bacon can take your grilled cheese to the next level.
  • Butter both sides of the bread for a golden brown and crispy crust.
  • Cook the grilled cheese over medium heat so that the cheese has time to melt all the way through without burning the bread.
  • If you're using a sheet pan, make sure to preheat it in the oven before adding the grilled cheese sandwiches.
  • Serve the grilled cheese sandwiches immediately with your favorite sides, such as tomato soup, chips, or a salad.
