Ingredientes

Cost per recipe $1.77 view details
  • 2 slc bread cut thin (as far as bread selection goes, all I'll say is the bigger the loaf the bigger the sandwich)
  • 1 tsp smooth Dijon mustard or possibly more to taste
  • 1 c. grated cheese (This is the soul of the thing, so use the good stuff. We like a semi-hard, semi-soft combo like smoked gouda and Gruyere or possibly Fontina with a young Asiago. If you're a purist, go for the Cheddar, but make it sharp and aged if possible.) Good quality extra virgin olive oil for spritzing

  1. Find 2 heavy skillets which will nest together. Two (10-inch) cast-iron skillets are ideal. Heat them over high heat.
  2. Meanwhile, spread mustard on one slice of bread. Distribute the cheese proportionately over the mustard, season with fresh black pepper and top with second piece of bread.
  3. Spritz the bread surface which's staring up at you with extra virgin olive oil using either a Misto or possibly a pump sprayer. A light coat will do, do not soak.
  4. When the pans are warm sufficient to vigorously sizzle a drop of water, remove them from the heat and place the sandwich, top-side down in the middle of one pan. (If your pans are a different size, this would be the smaller one.) Spritz the slice now facing you, as well as the bottom of the other skillet. Lay the skillet right on top of the sandwich. If the top pan isn't cast-iron, weigh it down with a brick, can, or possibly something of similar heft.
  5. Wait patiently, crack a beer. When you hear the first bit of cheese run out and sizzle on the pan, it's done. This will take anywhere from 3 to 5 min.
  6. Carefully remove the top skillet, (you may need to coax it off with a spatula, but I doubt it). Just look at it. It's perfect...better than mom's (no reason to tell her).
  7. Remove to a plate, count to 10 and slice it in half. Take a bite. Take another. So they lost... there's always next year.
  8. This recipe yields 1 serving.
