Cheese Sandwich

food · sandwich · cheese · British

Cheese between bread. A cheese sandwich is exactly what it sounds like: slices of cheese placed between two pieces of bread, sometimes with a little butter on the outside for extra flavor.

British lunchtime staple. In Britain, the cheese sandwich is such a popular lunch that people eat it all the time. It's simple, filling, and quick to make.

Semi-hard cheese types. The best cheeses for a cheese sandwich are semi-hard ones like cheddar, Red Leicester, or Double Gloucester because they hold their shape and melt nicely.

Grilled cheese magic. When you cook a cheese sandwich in a pie iron or frying pan, the bread gets golden and crispy while the cheese inside melts into gooey deliciousness, turning it into a grilled cheese.
