I feel a line must be drawn here. I cannot allow this thread to digress into toasted sandwiches, which I feel are a totally different subsection of bread based cullinary delights. I feel uni-slice only for this thread? Bi-slice needs to go elsewhere (and that thing looks like a George Formby Grill anyway).
Quote from: shurt on November 24, 2009, 04:00:59 pmi can see how the banning of a toasted sandwich is valid but how can you be banning eggs in a discussion about cheese on toast...the opening post had a recipe involving fish - at least an egg is keeping it dairy.My brain may be frazzled but is an egg really dairy?

Please note that I have not entered the worcestershire sauce argument
if I may raise the spectre of the microwave.....anyone using this to *melt* the cheese gets shot. sniper rifle, .50 round, through the head.
Shhhhhh- don't mention H***erson's
Nice variation is grilled cheese (US style)lightly toast the bread on one or both sides, depending on how anal you are! Slice cheese and French's mustard in between slices.
Butter outside of sandwich (both sides)
and fry in a hot, dry pan for a few minutes.
What's the feelings on mozarella? I sometimes have a bit leftover from making pizza and it's great if toasted to right crunchiness and has some tasty stuff to go with it, as it is pretty bland on its own.And how about haloumi?
Haloumi needs well seasoned and fried, then it's good, if you can get over the squeak.

Amazing.Am I an idiot or is the there absolutely no grilling involved in preparing 'grilled cheese'?!wtf is wrong with the Americans?
Yup Haloumi squeeks. But it doesn't melt does it? Surely one of the most important properties of cheese on toast is melted cheese.
