A grilled cheese is a grilled cheese, right? As if! If you’re anything like me, then this sandwich was probably the first thing you learned to cook by yourself using the pre-wrapped cheese slices that shall remain unnamed. The time is now to elevate this classic, cheesy, comforting goodness to gourmet status.
To start, you can take that old tried-and-true grilled cheese sandwich up a notch (or ten) by exploring a world of cheeses and our Artisan Bread. The possibilities are endless! From the spicy, tangy flavors of goat cheeses, like Humboldt Fog, to the smooth, velvety flavors of the Comté Saint-Antoine Gruyère, and the sweet touch from Raisin Walnut Bread or airy texture of Ciabatta, we’ve got five sure-fire ways to elevate you to grilled cheese gourmand status.
5 Gourmet Grilled Cheese Ideas
FOGGY BOTTOM
Raisin Walnut Bread meets Humboldt Fog goat cheese and a few slices of Prosciutto di Parma for a delightfully salty-creamy bite.
CAPRESE
This layered favorite is a take on the caprese salad: DLM Handmade Mozzarella, thinly sliced Roma tomato, fresh basil leaves, and Ciabatta Bread.
THE RETRO
The retro flavor of DLM Pimento Cheese Dip pairs perfectly with DLM Uncured Bacon. Pile between buttered slices of Farmhouse Bread.
DELISH
Sweet yet savory, this sandwich calls for slices of Deer Creek’s The Doe stacked between slices of Sesame Seed Bread that is slathered with apricot preserves.
THE ULTIMATE
Comté St. Antoine Gruyère and Barber’s 1833 Vintage Cheddar piled onto our classic Unbleached White Sandwich Bread. So simple and so delicious!
