Craving a grilled cheese? You've got to know about this grilled cheese tip to elevate your sandwich to the next level.

Craving a grilled cheese? You’ve got to know about this grilled cheese tip to elevate your sandwich to the next level. You’re going to spread the outside of the bread with, not butter, but mayonnaise!

It may sound strange, but mayo has the perfect amount of fat in it to give the bread a golden and crisp exterior in the skillet (plus, the oil in the mayo has a higher smoke point than butter).

You don’t even need fancy bread to make a great grilled cheese. Use whatever cheese is your favorite (I used a combo of sliced provolone and shredded cheddar).





The Best Grilled Cheese Recipe

Ingredients

  • 2 slices of bread
  • 1-2 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 1 slice provolone cheese
  • 1/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese

Directions

  1. Heat a non-stick or cast iron skillet on low.
  2. Spread a generous amount of mayonnaise on each slice of bread, making sure to spread to the edges.
  3. Lay the first slice of bread, mayonnaise side down, in the skillet. Add the cheeses on top and then add the remaining bread (mayonnaise side up). The mayo will be on the outside of the sandwich.
  4. Heat gently until the bread is crisp and golden brown (about 5-6 minutes). Flip and cook until the other side is also golden brown (this side usually takes a bit less time).
  5. Serve hot while the cheese is still melty.
