Lotsa things are going on here. The kimchi (with no work on your part, unless you're fermenting your own kimchi... I'm HELL Not doing that) adds a spicy, tangy complexity, cutting the monotony of an otherwise just plain rich and decadent grilled cheese. The extra layer of savoury and toasty cheese crisps enrobing your toast adds yet another textural contrast. More contrasting notes, More fun - just like in humans.





Ingredients

  • 2 slices of bread

  • 2 Tablespoons Mayo

  • Some Kimchi, chopped up

  • Cheddar Cheese (or any melty cheese of your choice), shredded


Directions

  • Spread the Mayo on all 4 sides of the 2 toasts.

  • Sandwich as much kimchi and shredded cheese as you desire (and can possibly stuff) in between the two slices of bread.

  • Heat your pan over low heat, lay your sandwich down, and let it brown on one side. Flip and brown on the other side. Set it aside.

  • In your empty pan, still over low heat, scatter some shredded cheese over the pan. Lay one side of your sandwich down right on top of the cheese, and let it cook over low heat until the cheese crisps up and browns, forming your cheese crust.

  • Once it's browned and crispy, you can either repeat on the other side (notes below) to make a double cheese crust, or serve as is. Enjoy!
