Ingredients
Scale
Bread and Spread
- 2 slices Sourdough Bread
- 2 tablespoons Toum (garlic sauce) or TOOM Original Garlic Dip for a shortcut
Cheese
- ½ cup Havarti Cheese, shredded (or another favorite melty cheese)
Optional Garlic Butter Mix
- Butter softened (amount unspecified, approximately 2 tablespoons for mixing with garlic and parsley)
- Minced garlic (amount not specified, estimated 1 teaspoon)
- Chopped parsley (estimated 1 teaspoon)
Instructions
- Prepare Garlic Butter: Soften the butter and mix it thoroughly with minced garlic and chopped parsley to create a flavorful garlic butter spread.
- Spread Butter on Bread: Evenly spread the prepared garlic butter on one side of each slice of sourdough bread.
- Add Cheese Layer: On the unbuttered side of each slice, layer the shredded Havarti cheese or your preferred cheeses evenly.
- Heat Skillet: Preheat a skillet over medium-low heat to ensure gradual melting and crisping without burning.
- Grill Sandwich: Place the bread slices buttered-side down on the skillet and cook until that side is golden and the cheese begins to melt, roughly 3-4 minutes.
- Flip and Grill Other Side: Flip the sandwich carefully and grill the other side until golden and the cheese is fully melted, pressing lightly with a spatula to promote even melting.
- Serve: Remove from heat, slice the sandwich, and serve immediately for the best cheesy pull and texture.
Notes
- Use fresh garlic for a more intense and bold garlic flavor.
- Feel free to mix and match different cheeses to customize the taste and melting characteristics.
- Cook over low heat to ensure the cheese melts thoroughly without burning the bread.
