You Should Really Be Seasoning Your Grilled Cheese Sandwich. Here’s Why
By HEATHER LIM
One element you're probably ignoring when making grilled cheeses is seasoning them properly. Spiced butter or some extra herbs can go a long way to making your sandwich tastier.
You can only do so much with butter or mayo on your grilled cheese. Alliums, herbs, and spices mixed into your butter or cheese mixture instantly make your sandwich less ho-hum.
Spices Inc says that herbs like dill, thyme, basil, and oregano pair well with classic American cheese. There are more options for other cheeses you feel like experimenting with.
Floral green herbs like rosemary complement brie, and milder Monterey Jack and provolone can be great canvases for stronger add-ins like cayenne, garlic, and even roasted jalapeños.
