Grilled cheese with butter or grilled cheese with mayo?
One of my best kept secrets for making amazing grilled cheese with a crispy outside is to use mayo on the side of the bread that will be touching the pan. Mayo has a higher smoke point then butter, so while you are letting your grilled cheese cook it’s way to toasty golden brown you won’t end up with a burnt grilled cheese!
Yes I know you might think that is totally crazy, but I am telling you using mayo instead of butter when making a grilled cheese will give you the best grilled cheese of your life. I am not just talking about when making this mozzarella and spinach grilled cheese, but for ANY grilled cheese!
If you are still set on using butter, you can however make sure the butter is at room temperature or you are using a spreadable butter.
Best Bread for Grilled Cheese
I personally love the flavor combination of rye bread with this fancy grilled cheese sandwich. However if you do not have that on hand you can use white bread, wheat bread or and bread that doesn’t crumble easily to make this gourmet grilled cheese sandwich.
Tips for Making the Best Grilled Cheese
Spread Mayo to edges of bread. You will get the best golden brown color when you are covering the whole piece of bread.
Cook on medium low heat. It might be tempting to turn up the heat to make things go faster, however you do not want to cook grilled cheese on anything higher then medium low heat.
Be Patient. It might be tempting to speed things up a bit, but doing so will end up with cheese that is not properly melted and bread that gets burnt.
