For a hot, melty cheese sandwich, here’s my triple-cheese version. Triple cheese! Three cheeses. Because double is old news… triple is where it’s at! Or should I have gone for four? I don’t know… how much cheese is too much cheese?
The method I suggest is the classic American-style grilled cheese sandwich, where it’s common to mix cheeses. This time I used mozzarella, Emmental, and semi-cured Manchego—simply what I had in the fridge—so feel free to experiment.

- On the side: a mixed salad with lettuce, tomato, cucumber, bell pepper, and onion, dressed with oil, vinegar, and salt.
- The trick to a perfect hot, melty cheese sandwich is medium heat so the bread browns slowly and the cheese has time to melt.
