Grilled Recipe ∞ "PJ Special" Grilled Cheese

Not for the faint of heart, this sandwich has flavor to spare. My dad won't even eat regular grilled cheese any more.

Serving:1 sandwich

Ingredients

  • 1 cup shredded extra-sharp Cheddar cheese
  • 4 teaspoons horseradish mustard (such as Silver Spring® Beer'n Brat®)
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1 pinch cayenne pepper
  • 2 teaspoons softened butter, or to taste
  • 2 slices whole grain bread

Cooking Directions

  1. Mix Cheddar cheese, horseradish mustard, garlic, salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper together in a bowl.
  2. Spread 1 teaspoon butter on one side of a slice of bread. Flip; spread Cheddar cheese mixture evenly over unbuttered side. Top with the other slice of bread. Spread 1 teaspoon butter on top.
  3. Preheat a griddle over medium-high heat. Place sandwich on the griddle and press down with a spatula to flatten slightly. Cook until browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and continue cooking until second side is browned, 2 to 3 minutes more.
If you can't find horseradish mustard, add 1/2 teaspoon horseradish to the filling; A 3:1 ratio of regular-to-hot Chinese mustard works well also. My sister likes hers with sliced tomato and no horseradish. Mom likes hers with no garlic or cayenne pepper. Strictly speaking, everything in the filling is optional except the cheese, so this is a good recipe to play with.
