Grill Tonight: Fancy Grilled Cheese Sandwiches

2008_07_08-Cheese.jpgGrilled cheese sandwiches... on the grill? Of course! Here are two brilliant grilled cheese sandwiches that we would love to throw on our grill tonight. Taleggio, grapes, gouda, cumin, and red onion are tossed up in two different varieties that are fancy enough for supper with company.

 
 

The first sandwich is a Dutch Grilled Cheese with Gouda cheese, cumin, and caraway that are combined to mimic a traditional Dutch Leyden cheese.

The second sandwich is Taleggio With Rosemary Grapes on Focaccia. Yum! (You can see our recipe for rosemary focaccia here.) Taleggio is a very creamy and pungent cheese that goes very well with fruit, especially grapes, as they call for here. You can read more about Taleggio here.

Both recipes are from an AOL Food slideshow (we can't link directly to the recipes, unfortunately).

My signature grilled cheese sandwich consists of cheese, sliced mushrooms, mayonnaise and plenty of black pepper. Heaven when served with soup!

The best grilled cheese I ever ate consisted of brie cheese and a thin slice of pear, sandwiched between two thick slices of homemade, herbed bread. It sounded bizarre on the menu, and I almost didn't order it because I couldn't justify a $6 grilled cheese sandwich.....but WOW. I crave it all the time now. I'm still happy with the friend that talked me into ordering it. And they're so easy to make at home!

Oh, I LOVE grilled brie and pear. Mmmm. Last night I had grilled scamorza and black olive tapenade on sourdough. That was tasty, too.

I'm a big fan of crispy pancheta and pimento cheese.
