justin0469 Posted April 24, 2009 Report Share Posted April 24, 2009 Be warned, unless you had a huge breakfast, this will make you hungry. I had no idea there were other kinds of grilled cheese, though admittedly, not everything on this list I would call grilled cheese.10 Greatest Grilled Cheese SandwichesBite into this selection of gloriously gooey creations April is National Grilled Cheese Sandwich Month. That’s right: Someone (somewhere) has proclaimed this popular comfort food worthy of a monthlong celebration. Beloved and reinvented by even the most celebrated chefs, the grilled cheese has long-since outgrown its white bread and processed cheese days. Below, find a roundup of the best tributes to this American staple. From Tom Colicchio’s french onion soup–themed masterpiece to a fried-egg-finished fantasy, the following are definitely feta-than-life sandwiches.The $15 Grilled Cheese This stacked creation was born out of Ontario-based chef Randy Feltis’s adoration for exotic cheeses and thick-cut bread. Melted in between the garlic-, parsley- and butter-seasoned loaf lies a brilliant blend of brie, aged Cheddar, Italian Asiago and Havarti cheeses. Croque MadameA delectable grilled cheese sandwich coupled with cured meats and topped with a fried egg is one of the many appetizing creations on the menu at Campanile in Los Angeles as part of its weekly Grilled Cheese Night. Honey-Basil Grilled CheeseYumSugar, the savvy food column on the Sugar Network, made this delicious sandwich in honor of National Grilled Cheese Month. They crafted this stack of melted goodness with mozzarella, fontina, fresh basil, tomatoes and honey. Grilled CapreseThis salad-turned-sandwich is inspired by Insalata Caprese, a dish consisting of mozzarella, ripe tomatoes and fresh basil from the Campania region in southwestern Italy. To this we say, “Buon appetito!” Photo credit: Shiv Harris/bellwetherstudio.com Grilled Portobello and CheeseThe Oregon Grille in Cockeysville, Maryland—a quaint eatery surrounded by horse country—is responsible for this rustic white bread explosion, topped with Boursin and provolone cheeses as well as roasted tomato and portobello mushrooms. Stuffed Grilled Cheese PretzelYou can get six of these stuffed-to-perfection soft pretzels for $28, which sounds expensive, but we say go for it (after all, they’re handmade). Oozing from the plump curves of this toasted treat is real Cheddar cheese, which is also sprinkled on top. Gruyère with Caramelized Onions This simple creation is one of several hot-sandwich options in celebrity chef Tom Colicchio’s book ’Wichcraft. It’s inspired by french onion soup and contains Gruyère cheese with roasted onions on sliced rye bread. Reprinted from the book ‘wichcraft by Tom Colicchio. Copyright © 2009 by Tom Colicchio. Published by Clarkson Potter, a division of Random House, Inc.Grilled Cheese and TomatoesThis twist on a Southern classic creates a grilled cheese out of a gourmet version of pimento cheese—made with Gruyère, provolone and piquillo peppers—and is served with a shot of tomato soup at Max’s Wine Dive in Houston. Revamped Grilled Cheese“The Inner Workings of a College Graduate” blogger, Meghann, decided to overhaul the tasteless grilled cheese sandwiches she ate as a kid. The result? Between two slices of Jenna’s Oatmeal Bread she layers Swiss cheese, goat cheese, apples and spinach—grilled to perfection on a George Foreman Grill. Mozzarella and Provolone with Roasted Tomatoes and Black OlivesYes, this is a thread about grilled cheese... Happy Grilled Cheese Month!
