Love you reaction videos, recipes less so. But would really appreciate videos covering cooking methods and on organising the cooking area. Eg this is how I store fresh herbs or how I store dried herbs etc. Methods, this is how to make roux, or premade roux just add some to cooking ingredients (chef Pierre did good version). Or this is how reverse sear, and advantages or disadvantages.

I think part of this is also that in the UK, we usually just put grated cheese on a single slice of toast and put it under the grill (so more like a mini-pizza than a sandwich). It makes all the stuff about making sure the cheese melts properly and the bread doesn't burn moot. Gordan clearly hasn't practiced the US style enough and tried to wing it.

You can make grilled cheese with a harder or drier cheese that doesn't melt as well, but you HAVE to give it some help. The best way to help it is to shred it very finely. For example, Kerrygold Dubliner doesn't melt very well as slices, but if you finely shred it, you have a FANTASTIC flavorful grilled cheese base, particularly when mixed with more traditional cheese as a duo or trio. On a side note, shredding the cheese will also help greatly if you are adding something that would normally make the sandwich fall apart, such as tuna or shredded crab... shred both the tuna/crab/etc and the cheese, mix them 50/50 and use that as your filling, and the cheese will bind the sandwich together beautifully. Also, if you'd like a nice cheese crust that comes out perfect every time, follow these steps: 1) Shred a nice neutral cheese finely. 2) When the sandwich is basically finished and ready to pull, sprinkle shredded cheese on TOP of the sandwich, then quickly flip it so that cheese is trapped under it. IMMEDIATELY sprinkle a tiny amount of the cheese on the bare skillet, using it as a visual guide to what the cheese under your sandwich is doing. (If you try to flip it too soon, you will destroy the cheese crust and get your spatula all gooey, but if you wait too long it will burn... the visual aid prevents this pretty much every time) 3) When the cheese on the skillet is browning and almost ready, sprinkle more cheese on top of the sandwich and flip it, then sprinkle a second small drop of cheese onto the skillet as a second visual timer. 4) After both sides are basically finished, dial in the perfect done-ness by the normal flip-flip-flip-flip process.

I've done lots of fun grilled cheese experiments! I've made a Pizza grilled cheese using pepperoni slices and mozzarella cheese, seasoned with garlic salt and dipped in tomato soup to kinda represent the pizza sauce (tho I should have used Marinara or even just a bowl of pizza sauce to dip) I've made Roast beef with saurkraut grilled cheese using cheddar cheese as the primary flavor of cheese, alongside adding mustard and mayo, and I've even defied the main rule and omitted cheese to make a banger grilled PB&J using a sugar-free peanut butter so it can be seasoned with Cinnamon Sugar, alongside the jam being a four-berry kind I've grown quite fond of. Grilled cheese being so simple is why I LOVE making them! While sticking to the simple nature of them, little things can be added to make each one unique while still easy and cheap to make!

Someone can correct me if i make a mistake. Here in the UK we have toasted sandwich makers, i don't know if its a make or the name of the thing but we call them brevills. You basically make a sandwich and put it in and close it. Due to the design shapes it grills it and SEALS the edges, something a panini press cannot do. I usually use mature chedder for mine with a dash of Worcestershire sauce or a sprinkle of smoked paprika. I have not tried it myself but a bit of mango chutney might work also.

I would throw the cheese itself into a pan with butter and pre-soften it, THEN place it on the bread and grill. Those cheeses can take some direct heat, since they're so dry and hard, and the butter will incorporate a little moisture back in. and I have put kraut and pepper salsa on grilled cheeses before, and they were okay, but I was using gouda and havarti, respectively. Which are much softer and easier to grill in a sandwich.

Gordon did a UNO reverse on what constitutes grilled cheese. Grilled cheese is about making something delicious out of a disgusting piece of bread you can't eat unless it's toasted and the worst excuse for a cheese. Instead he took what appears to be delicious bread and great cheese and ruined both.

Not only did he choose two cheeses that melt very poorly, he also decided to cut them into literal bricks that would either stay rock solid because he struggled to heat it thoroughly, or would turn unpleasantly rubbery even when heated through. I think it's worse than that extra and unneeded fireplace cooking because at least there's a chance for the fireplace to actually work if he really tried.

So first that flavor combination works. The lactic fermentation in the cheese and kimchee gives it a cohesive flavor. I also have done this with Achar. As long as you don't overdo it it adds spice and some acidity which can cut through richer fattier cheese. It actually does taste good. Especially while using good whole wheat preferably a sourdough boule. The thing that actually makes this bad was the cooking method. Personally, I like grating the cheese it seems to melt better. I also like to start the cheese kind of open face as you mentioned on low heat with a lid on the pan preferably clear so you can see the cheese starting to melt. But this flavor combination does work

@tonygluk1 4 күн бұрын

What I do when I want an "elevated" grill cheese - Get a handful of chopped onions Fry them sort of until they are caramalised Make standard grill cheese layout (simple bread and mozzarella and cheddar cheese mixed in) Add caramalised onions and onion oil over the cheese Add some Italian/Mediterranian seasoning (oregano, basil etc, just get a seasoning mix) Maybe some garlic butter on the outside Then grill it in my pannini press (pan works too) Great sandwich that still sticks to what a grilled cheese is, and isn't fancy and uses basic stuff. You can use this as a base for other sandwiches too, just add in more stuff like a patty, veggies, pickles, olives etc.

@FFVison 26 күн бұрын

What do I do when I want an "elevated" grill cheese? I make a simple grill cheese which is already incredibly tasted, put it on a plate and hold it over my head. It's about as elevated as it needs to be. Now the best part: to eat it. Maybe you might be able to say some tomato soup to dunk it might elevate it, but that is about as fancy as it should ever need to get.

I married a Japanese woman who came pre-packaged with twin daughters. They had never had a grilled cheese so I made them like my mom used to make them. Butter on one side, throw in a pan with low heat, a smear of mayo (miracle whip or real mayo, both are great), cheddar is my preferred cheese but my girls liked velveeta on the mayo side. Butter another piece of bread, put on top butter side facing cheese, then mayo on the top, wait a bit for brown, flip, wait for cheese to drool over side and flip as necessary. My kids absolutely loved them. Many years later I was working as a chef at a specialty hospital and got an order for a grill cheese from a kid and wasn't thinking so I made it how I made them for my kids instead of how it was on the menu and the kid loved it, dad and mom liked it and ordered sandwiches for themselves and it got around at how good it was so the recipe got changed to my version. Also, a smidgen of 1000 island and ham on a grilled cheese tastes great,,, guess at that point it's no longer a grilled cheese lol. Learned a recipe a few years ago where you take a grilled cheese, make it as usual, but also put some ham and strawberry jam in with the cheese, dip the whole thing into egg and fry it up. Turned out amazing when I tried it.

The way I make a grilled cheese is a bit different but oh so good.i get some butter and throw it in a skillet to melt. Then I add in some olive oil until mixed. I take a nice thick bread like Texas toast and I dip one side into the oil butter mixture and remove it and set it wet side up. Then I get some shredded sharp cheddar and mozzarella and a couple slices of American. I then sprinkle a bit of garlic powder and Italian seasoning on the wet side of a piece of bread and put it face down in the skillet and put on a slice of cheese then a mixture of the other two cheeses. Then I put the slice of american cheese then put the other bread on cook it a bit slow one one side until it becomes toasted. Then I flip it press it down a bit and crank the heat up. I grill I fast on this side since the cheese is pretty much melted it just finishes it off. The reason I use a butter oil mix is the oil soaks into the bread and when you grill it you have a much crunchier layer of char on the bread because the oil butter mixture seems down into it. So in the end you have a her garlic bread grilld cheese. The reason for the cheese mixture is the sharp brings a tanginess the creaminess and salty flavor comes from the American and the steinginess from the mozzarella. Best of all three worlds.

I do the grilled cheese broiled in oven hack sometimes, mainly because I just put it on a piece of foil so I don't have to clean a pan. Start off butter side up, toast until golden. Flip, butter, toast until golden. Sharp American on one slice, provolone on the other, melt cheese. If I'm feeling adventurous, add salami once cheese in melted and leave just long enough that it's warm. Press together and enjoy.

So the reason processed cheese is such a popular choice for grilled cheese in particular is the way that it melts. It does that because it's mixed with some chemical (I forget which one) that basically helps it melt without splitting. If you're gonna do grilled cheese with a real cheese, one way to do it is to melt/mix that chemical into the cheese of your choice beforehand so it melts more like processed cheese.

So I just finished the video. Thanks for your insight James. Also one thing to point out is the Kimchi will keep the cheese cooler, acting as an additional heat sink that needs to be heated up before the cheese can melt. Insulation is not the key here. The average person would absolutely remake the sandwich or even try a few things to force the cheese to melt. Dare I say, actually putting the cheese a few seconds on the pan or whatever they are using. The problem with the mentality here is the fact that it essentially turned the grilled cheese into a "Cheese Kimchi sandwich". I just looked on google and theres news articles and recipes talking about having a kimchi grilled cheese sandwich, and "taking it to the next level". Please.. it is NOT a grilled cheese.. its a kimchi sandwich guys. Why are people fooling themselves after watching this video?

@RJGrady 9 күн бұрын

For an ultimate grilled cheese, if you want to use a harder cheese, what you do is put a very soft cheese on the bread, and the harder cheese (thin slice) on top. As the softer cheese melts, it will sweat and moisten the hard cheese. I do a sandwich with havarti and mozzarella on the bread, with sharp cheddar and swiss on top, and put a fresh tomato slice in it right before I close it. Much more harmonious.

I like my grilled cheese with Cream cheese I use Mild Cheddar cheese and Laughing Cow Cream cheese Before Grilling I add a few chili flakes for heat. I shred enough cheddar cheese that I also put it on the outside of the sandwich as well giving an extra flavor of cheese yes I fry on the cheese but being very careful not to burn the cheese on the outside just melts too a crisp to make a better crunch then butter bread. It does work if you usually butter too thick witch for some reason it does for me the extra cheese takes away the butter and crisps like having crispy cheese bits. I usually make cheese bits for the top of my mashed potatoes usually for garnish on the potatoes but people in my house just love the crunch.

Key word is light, just to add a little texture without turning it into another kind of sandwich.

I enjoy putting caramelized onions on my grilled cheese with a bowl of tomato soup. I also put a lid on my pan with an open face because low and slow wins. An alternative is to broil it so I get a nice crispy brown cheese crust on top. Of course butter both sides. Maybe some spicy peppers for a kick.

@eyebrid Ай бұрын

One way to make it work with that bread and those cheeses would be to grate & mix the cheeses, butter the bread, assemble and cover the pan on low with a tsp of water on the side to steam. A better grilled cheese is with whatever cheese you like as long as it can melt or is combined with a melty cheese. I like to add cracked/milled pepper corns to the cheese, best to keep seasoning to a minimum to compliment the cheese's flavor. Good options are chopped fresh basil, thinly sliced patted dry tomato, chopped sundried tomato, thinly sliced & low oil pan roasted onion, chopped & sautéed mushrooms, etc. The key is low moisture toppings to stick to the cheese. One great combo I used recently is habanero cheddar & swiss.

One correction on Uncle Rodger... you can melt ice by pushing it. Since ice is one of the very few solids that are less dense than its liquid form. Pushing it increases the pressure, making it more dense, causing it to melt. There are video demonstrations where you can cut ice with some wire tied to weights, by melting the ice in contact with the wire.

@terpman Ай бұрын

I have made something similar to this but I prepped the ingredients very differently. I used asiago, Romano, and gruyere cheeses with a rosemary sourdough and fried jamon serrano (thin slices). But I used a microplane for the Romano and asiago cheeses and not a lot of either, just enough to get some of the flavors. The gruyere was the main cheese because it melts very well. The sourdough was about 1/3 the thickness of Gordan's bread in this video. I fried the sandwich in unsalted butter at very low heat and it turned out perfect. Similar to the kimchi Gordan used, I have made grilled cheese with gruyere and fontina on schwarzbrot with about two tablespoons of warm sauerkraut. That was also quite good.

If you grate the romano and asiago cheeses onto a shredded munster and havarti, and slowly heat the grilled cheese on a pan (I usually use a cast iron but don't see why it has to be one), you might get it to achieve some meltiness. I use whatever potato bread I have lying around, or if I have a nice loaf of country bread or sourdough, keeping it to about 1/3rd of an inch in thickness would be alright. I don't mind the kimchi, that's not a bad idea. When I make grilled cheese, I add sriracha mayo. But I add it AFTER I'm done grilling, opening up the sandwich to dab it in, because I don't like how it liquifies if heated inside the sandwich for the cooking time. I don't know if I'd want to do that to the kimchi for the same reason - I'd probably add it afterwards. I'd try his combination, but I would grate that cheese, man. Always shred your cheese on grilled cheese for maximum melt.

And yeah, I sometimes heat the bread on the inside before putting cheese on, if it is not American, usually I grate it so it melts easier as well.

I’d say when doing a multiple cheese bread dish, it’s good to have melters, and non melters. With rustic loads you just need more butter - being fresh is very important too. If not fresh, a light flick of water and 5 minutes to sit, will re introduce moisture at least. Keeping in the fridge can also dry out bread quicker.

If you were to make a grilled kimchi and cheese sandwich, besides getting the right type of bread and thickness, cheese (raclette and smoked cheddar are good) you would also need to get proper quality kimchi fermented to the right point, and for the flavour to be good the heat from the melted cheese would need to penetrate onto the kimchi so that it cooks a little, which adds a different depth and dimension to the kimchi and overall flavour of the sandwich. PS James, for people allergic to fish (there is a type of fish sauce in kimchi that helps fermentation) you can use vegan kimchi.

@ktaylor9095 Ай бұрын

The bread doesn't look bad, but definitely cut way too thick. It's got a solid crumb, which is good for grilled cheese; if you use a rustic bread and it has large voids in the crumb, the cheese just melts through the holes in the bread and it's a mess. White bread is for feeding to ducks at the park, not for human consumption. I prefer Cheddar, Swiss or smoked Gouda for grilled cheese, they melt pretty well and have solid flavor. Motz is fine, i guess, if you want the stretchy thing, but I'm not as big a fan because it gets stringy and makes the sandwich hard to eat. Parm and romano are great for salads and pasta, but not grilled cheese. Processed Cheese Product, or American cheese, is not a substance I want to put in my body. I've seen tomato added, and I think sour stuff like thin sliced dill pickle or sour krout is delicious if you have rich or high fat cheese that complements it. I don't know that I'd use kimchi with those particular cheeses though. They're too dry.

If I were to use romano I would not use slices, I would grate it or crumble it to reduce its resistance to heat and also grate the asiago (it melts well but not in the timeframe of a grilled cheese) then would probably blend the two cheeses together that way you get the asiago nice and melted and chunks of gooey only slightly melted romano. Of course slice that bread a bit thinner OR use high heat to quickly toast one side of a thicker slice before reducing the heat, flipping over, adding the cheese and stacking the other slice then flipping it to do the other side. No kimchi though, get that out there too much moisture, maybe have that on the side or added on top of the sandwich but not as a filling. (also not convinced it would complement the flavors of those two cheeses)
