▲ 100 ▼ Grilled "cheese" (thelemmy.club) submitted 1 day ago* by FauxPseudo@lemmy.world [M] to c/cooking@lemmy.world 30 comments fedilink hide all child comments Life is crazy right now. I had to rebuild my cell phone today and my wife is craving comfort food with no nutritional value. All cooking counts if it stops you from paying $5 to $6 for a single grilled cheese and fries at someplace that actually offers that. Cost per person, $1.20 Phone surgery was a success. New battery and screen. But this is temporary because this model goes EOL next month.

Or on the outside instead of butter? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] FauxPseudo@lemmy.world [S] 5 points 1 day ago (2 children) On the outside.

That was by far the less wrong option, still pass I think, but it's basically oil with a bit of egg so I'm not really sure why I find it so weird. I might brush a bit of egg on the bread for my next toasties, tho, that doesn't weird me out unlike spreading mayonnaise on the outside of a sandwich. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] TastehWaffleZ@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago I tried it before and it had a mildly sour tang to it that I did not enjoy at all. I’ll stick to my butter permalink fedilink source parent [–] tpyo@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago I do both sides toasted with mayo. Lightly at first on the "inside" flip them over and put the cheese on the hot bread, let the sides toast a few seconds then put together and flip as necessary. But you gotta make sure the mayo has toasted into the bread, so don't use too much. It's not a Monte Cristo! permalink fedilink source parent
