Add A Gourmet Touch To Grilled Cheese With One Sweet And Spicy Ingredient
BY AMANDA BERRILL
There are so many factors that go into an amazing grilled cheese, and one way you can give it a more flavorful upgrade is by adding a touch of gourmet to it using hot honey.
Hot honey is a perfect blend of heat and sweetness, as neither flavor is strong enough to outshine the other, and grilled cheese is the perfect canvas for the sticky, spicy spread.
The heat of the peppers infused with honey cuts through the richness of the melted cheese, while the saccharine notes from the honey elevate the entire experience.
To incorporate this ingredient, simply pour it directly onto the uncooked cheese while assembling, or drizzle it directly on top of the freshly griddled sandwich.
However, steer clear of spreading it on the outside of the bread before cooking it, as direct contact with a hot cooking surface can burn the honey and give it an acrid taste.
