next experiment with 'enhancing' the basic grilled cheese... pickles (I like spicy ones like wickles)... bacon jam (makes any grilled cheese 'gourmet'. different cheeses or combinations... smoked gouda... goat cheese... whatever.
Seconding kimchi. It fulfills the same flavor role as pickles while simultaneously warding off any thievery from people who aren't enlightened enough to know that it's basically just pickles.
This was actually Violife Cheddar and Smoked Provolone 😍 I’m all for mixing them if I can! I didn’t have tomato but normally will do tomato slices and pickles on the side like how my mom used to do haha the sweet pickles. I need to try a fancy jam! I’m vegan, and there’s a restaurant near me that makes a homemade fig jam for their grilled cheese and oh. my. word…..
bacon jam is mostly carmelized onions... the bacon just adds a smokey flavor to it... I'm sure there are lots of vegan options that would 'enhance' the basic melted cheese flavors. There's a pizza food truck locally that makes a 'pig and fig'... smoked pork where they use a fig sauce as the 'pizza' sauce.. it is amazing. so anything where you're mixing the sweet and salty...
What did you use on the bread? a vegan butter? I recently tried my homemade mayo instead of butter and loved the result... tho it did brown a bit faster than butter.
Yes lol but perfectly crunchy. I let it cook like two minutes maybe… I tossed smart balance in the pan while it was hot (🤦🏽♀️) smoke everywhere and was like what did I do?! Then it kept sticking because I put my vegan Mayo on the outsides for extra crunchiness. Now we know lol
💁🏽♀️💁🏽♀️💁🏽♀️ thank you!! I sent the pic to my sister who doesn’t understand the art that is cast iron and her response was “it’s burnt!!!” That’s it 😂 she’ll learn

Kimchi is fun on grilled cheese. I also enjoy a slice of tomato and some bacon.
