Part 2!
Almost Caprese Inspired by Roxy's Grilled Cheese in Boston. Bread: Classic White Spread: Butter Cheese: American or Havarti or Mozzarella Extras: Fried tomato and pesto Pairing: Dill pickle I fry my tomato slice with plenty of salt and pepper before putting it on the sandwich. You can add mushrooms for a bit of extra pizazz. I love the Trader Joe's jarred pesto for this. Sweet Cheese, Inspired by a wine and cheese plate. Bread: Brioche Spread: Butter (cinnamon sugar) Cheese: Havati, Brie Extras: Fruit Preserves (fig or pear or apricot) Pairing: Salty chips This is almost a dessert sandwich. The fruit jam pairs with the mellow cheeses and the cinnamon butter. The chips add a bit of saltiness to cut through the sugar! Goat and Garlic I stole this from the melt shop Bread: Sourdough Spread: Garlic Aoili Cheese: Muenster, Havarti, Goat Cheese Crumbs Extras: Optional Roasted Tomatoes inside Pairing: Tomato Soup The goat cheese is a very strong flavor that needs to be balanced by the sweet tomato sauce, do not skip it!! I use the Trader Joes branded soup and it's perfect. Some Disclaimers: - I am a vegetarian so none of these have meat, but it would be easy to add your own ham or bacon. - I'm not a chef I'm just a home cook who loves grilled cheese, so take all this with a grain of salt. - I put Trader Joe's garlic salt on top of almost everything I make, not listed on the ingredients here. Tag me if you make any of the recipes here! @BinaryAndLove JulieLerche.com

The Grilled Zine - Recipes that I make all the time plus some tips and tricks! 1/2 #art #zines #comicoop #recipe
The Grilled zine. Julie's fancy grilled cheese recipes and tips. By certified cheese lover Julie Lerche. Image is of a woman with an apron that reads please do nothing to the cook. Let your grilled cheese rest on a wire rack before cutting (yes, like a steak.) This prevents the bottom from steaming and getting soggy! An underrated step. I cook mine in a nice skillet with a lid on to trap the heat and melt the cheese. If I'm using butter I will melt it in the pan first instead of buttering the bread, this makes the coating more even for grilling! I use an extra large spatula for.... flipping (it's almost as big as a standard piece of bread.) Don't be afraid to use a knife on top for more stability while flipping! I have a bad habit of messing up and then the cheese gets misaligned and it's annoying. It's better be careful while flipping your sandy. Don't be afraid to experiment! I love using different types of honey on top of my sandwiches. It doesn't have to be normal bread either, I love a grilled croissant with honey. It's hard to go wrong with hot honey and cheese. Have fun! Grilled Egg and Cheese, stolen from a Nashville Bagel place. Bread: Rye or Wheat Spread: Olive Oil Cheese: Burrata Extras: Avocado mash and egg of your choice Pairing: Morning coffee A delicious breakfast sandwich, the burrata is super creamy but should be heated separately from the sandwich because it's so wet. Maybe this is more of a melt actually, lol. It's yummy though.
