How to Make Grilled Cheese Melt at Home?

Plain grilled cheese at $5.99. Two cheeses rather than one is the whole difference — processed melts, aged tastes of something, and neither does both jobs alone.

Tips

  • Low and slow. This is the only rule that matters in a grilled cheese.
  • Mayonnaise on the outside browns better than butter.
  • Cover the pan for the first two minutes if the cheese is thick — trapped heat melts the middle.

Variations

  • Add bacon at 335 calories for $7.29.
  • Add drained tomato.
  • The Simply Ham and Cheese for a cold build at $3.49.

Serving Ideas

  • The cheapest full size sandwich on the menu at $5.99.
  • It reheats badly — this is one to eat straight away.
