Sugerencias, trucos y consejos
- You can add more cheese if you like. Go as cheesy as you want.
- Serve it with a mixed salad [1] made with lettuce, tomato, cucumber, bell pepper, and onion, dressed with olive oil, vinegar, and salt.
- The secret to a great melty grilled cheese is keeping the heat medium so the bread browns slowly and the cheese melts perfectly inside.
- Use any cheese combo you love that melts well. For example, cheddar, gouda, and mozzarella work beautifully too.
- In some versions of this American-style grilled cheese, people spread a thin layer of mayonnaise instead of butter. Try it! It gets extra crisp and flavorful.
