Grilled Cheese Thick & Delicious
Any cheese that melts will make a great Grilled Cheese Sandwich. If you are really good at cooking a Grilled Cheese Sandwich try adding more and thicker slabs of cheese.
Some people think a Grilled Cheese Sandwich is the ultimate comfort food and I tend to agree with them. I love eating mine with a cup of veggie soup on the side. And don't forget to add new things to your creations.
If you love grilled cheese think about experimenting with ideas for new creations.When you think of Grilled Cheese Sandwich you usually think of a few slices of cheese melted between bread, but what if instead you thought about Shredded Cheese to make that Grilled Cheese Sandwich perfect. One of the great advantages of shredding cheese is that you can easily mix different kinds of cheese together to create a totally new Grilled Cheese with flavors never before tasted on this humblest of sandwiches.

1 6-ounce can tomato paste
3 tablespoons chopped canned chipotle chilies*
1 tablespoon mild-flavored (light) molasses

1 cup fresh cilantro leaves
6 tablespoons butter, room temperature
preparation
Blend tomato paste, chilies, and molasses in processor until smooth. Spread 1 tablespoon chipotle mixture over 1 side of each bread slice.
Arrange 6 bread slices, chipotle side up, on work surface. Divide half of cheese among bread slices. Top with tomatoes, then onion, cilantro, and remaining cheese. Top sandwiches with remaining bread, chipotle side down. Spread butter on outside of sandwich tops and bottoms.

Best Cheese For Grilled Cheese
which cheese is the best for grilled sandwiches
The question is as old as cheese and bread itself. Of the many cheeses available to melt between two slices of bread what is the best cheese for grilled cheese? How can the question be answered with so many choices available to choose from.
Imagine a couple of early bread and cheese makers sitting around sampling their creations. The first one says with a mouth full of bread, "what's your favorite combination of bread and cheese?" The second baker looks askance at the first baker and utters " it can't be known," now there is an answer worthy of Zen if I ever heard one. A third baker, who just happens to be a woman looks at both of them chomping on their bread and cheese and states her opinion. "The real question is" she proffers, "which is the best cheese for grilled cheese?" "Grilled cheese" the rotund bakers shout back in unison, "what the heck is a grilled cheese?"
Ever since the three bakers had their satori moment and became enlightened to the reality of grilled cheese and what it means for the stability of the universe and the fullness of ones stomach, intrepid cooks on all continents have been debating which of the many cheeses is best for grilled cheese? I honestly can't answer the question because I like so many different kinds of cheese. One persons perfect grilled cheese is another persons missed opportunity.

- I'm not sure if you have salad cream in America, it's kinda like mayonaise. A bit of that in a grilled cheese sandwich is just the best!

- Love grilled cheese sandwiches. There are some interesting variations here -- I have to try adding tomato paste and using Brie. I always use whole grain bread, and sauteed mushrooms piled on top make a great addition (except then you have to use a fork).
