The Most Beautiful Thing, A Grilled Cheese

Not many people get the satisfaction of a great grilled cheese. Especially not at two in the morning. It is safe to say that I have managed to master perfection in achieving that satisfaction.

The Grilled Cheese Sandwich is humanity’s greatest invention. Who would have thought slapping two slices of bread together separated by a slice of processed milk would be so delicious?  Not only is it convenient, it is efficient. It does not require a whole lot of ingredients and neither does it require a whole lot of time to make. Although how it’s made is very important. There needs to be the right amount of butter in the pan, the right kind of bread, the right kind of cheese, the right amount of cheese as well and the right moment for when to flip it. But the most important thing of all would be the right way to enjoy it, and that is with both hands bared and your mouth open wide.

A grilled cheese can be prepared with various combinations of different types of cheeses and bread. A personal favorite combination includes Swiss cheese, mozzarella cheese, provolone cheese, pepper-jack cheese and cheddar cheese. These paired with sour-dough bread, whole-wheat or whole-grain bread, and loads of butter would make the perfect grilled cheese.

A really good trick to add a little twist to a good grilled cheese is to melt butter in the pan and squeeze half a lemon once it starts to heat up. Also adding garlic salt to the bread slices before placing into the pan to grill would add additional spice.

This is literally what dreams are made of. May the Cheese be with you.
