The Best Grilled Cheese Ever Requires One Simple Extra Step
BY MICHELLE WELSCH
While making a grilled cheese seems as simple as placing a piece of cheese between two slices of bread and toasting it, there are ways to significantly improve the sandwich.
Using butter to make your grilled cheese sandwiches and salting your skillet before placing any pieces of bread down can make a noticeable difference in the outcome of your recipe.
After melting the butter in the skillet, season it before adding any sandwich components. This simple move will boost the savory flavor found on your toasted bread.
You can always add a sprinkle of sea salt to the top of your sandwich, so lean on the side of caution when salting up your skillets.
For an added flavor boost, use garlic salt to improve its flavor, and consider sprinkling herbs like dill, basil, or rosemary onto the cheese before it cooks.
