This classic American sandwich is a true celebration of American cuisine. It is filled with iconic American ingredients, such as cheddar cheese, apple cider vinegar, and mayonnaise, making it a perfect meal for a patriotic occasion.
Ingredients:
Yield: 1 servings
2 slices of brioche bread, preferably from a local bakery
2 slices of sharp cheddar cheese
2 teaspoons of mayonnaise
1/4 teaspoon of apple cider vinegar
2 teaspoons of butter
Instructions:
Step 1
Start by heating up a non-stick pan over medium heat. Make sure the pan is not too hot or the bread will burn before the cheese has a chance to melt.
Step 2
While the pan is heating, collect your bread, cheese, mayonnaise, and apple cider vinegar. Mix the mayonnaise and apple cider vinegar together in a small bowl to create a tangy spread.
Step 3
Take the two slices of brioche bread and spread a generous amount of the mayonnaise and vinegar spread on one side of each slice.
Step 4
Put one of the bread slices, spread-side down, in the heated pan. You should hear a sizzle when the bread hits the pan.
Step 5
Place the two slices of cheddar cheese on top of the first slice of bread in the pan, making sure to evenly distribute them. This is important since you want to make sure that every bite has some cheese.
Step 6
Take the second slice of bread and put it on top of the cheese, spread-side up.
Step 7
Leave the sandwich to cook for 1-2 minutes, checking occasionally to make sure that the bottom of the sandwich isn't burning.
Step 8
Once the bottom of the sandwich is golden brown, use a spatula to gently flip the sandwich over. Cook for another minute or two on the other side until golden brown and crispy.
Step 9
Once both sides of the sandwich are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly, take the sandwich out of the pan and let it cool for a minute or two before serving.
Step 10
Cut the sandwich in half and serve hot. Enjoy this delicious All-American grilled cheese sandwich!
