The catch is that we want you to put cheese on the outside of your grilled cheese. That’s right, you'll be cooking the sandwich in a pile of shredded cheese.
Grilling the sandwich this way will increase the cheesiness, adding a toasty note like you would get from the lid of a lasagna and incorporating even more crunch.
Worried about burnt cheese? Cook the sandwich first, sprinkle shredded cheese into the hot pan, let it melt, and put your sandwich back on top. Then, repeat on the other side.
