Cheese on toast

[saltedpretzel2]

This delicious snack is made by first grilling one side of the bread. Turn it over, cover with cheese and pop back under the grill to melt the cheese yum.

DH thinks you should grill both sides of the bread and then put cheese on the toast and back under the grill to melt. Results in edges being pretty burnt.

AIBU that my way is the correct way to make cheese on toast?

Yeah to toast one side.. not both

I agree with you! In fact, you've put me in the mood now for cheese on toast.....

I used to do it like your DH as that’s how my DM did it.

When I got to university and watched how my friends did it I was horrified…then quickly converted. If you stab through the semi melted cheese and add soy sauce it’s extra delicious.

This is the least faff way. But must have Hendersons relish.

You're definitely right.
But you need a layer of horseradish sauce under the cheese.

Both side of the bread need to be toasted. The cheese then needs to go right to the edges and then the crust doesn;t burn.

Op is correct and I second the hendos (or Worcestershire sauce if you're not near Sheffield).

Exactly.

Bread toasted on one side only. To do it in your toaster (while the grill heats up) toast two slices of bread back to back in the same slot. Put the cheese on both untoasted sides and under the grill.

Team DH on this one.

Toast it, butter, marmite...thick layer of cheese covering to edge with slight hangover...under grill.

If not using marmite add chutney afterwards to top...extra points if homemade chutney

Not if it's buttered it isn't. Butter adds to the glorious ooziness.
Cholesterol? Pah! Take statins.
(Actually I top it with kimchi to add to my five a day AND fermented foods intake. )

Cheese on toast is: toast one side, while waiting grate some cheese, turn bread over when t'other side is brown, Bury the uncooked side in grated cheese, shove back under the grill (hoping you don't touch the element), wait for the cheese to bubble and remove. If the edges are showing, spread the cheese around more.
Failing that I get my toasty maker out and make cheese and tomato toasties.

Toast one side of the bread, turn.
Very lightly toast the other side, remove.
Add wholegrain mustard, sliced cherry tomatoes & cheese; toast some more.
I really fancy this now, but alas no grill. It's been years.

Bread goes in toaster for 1 min then under grill with the cheese on till it melts

Interesting splitof

Cheese on toast

And cheese on bread melted...

I am with your DH, my DH is with you.

Dd, age 3, rural Scotland went, ahem, to Wales this week with nursery and had Welsh rarebit so in our house, nothing else will do today!

That’s the spirit 💪

You either eat cheese on toast properly or you don’t.

Same here. I want cheese on toast now, this minute

Toast both sides first. I use a toaster but under the grill would be fine. I don't usually switch the grill on until I've sliced enough cheese though (which can take a while because I have to slice the cheese faster than I can eat the slices) and microwaved a tin of button mushrooms (drained and patted dry). Those then get sandwiched between the two bits of cheesy toast.

The mushroooms try and ping out of course but it's fun pushing them back in again.

Love this.

I make ours like this…

Toast the bread in toaster.
Remove from toaster
Add slices of cheese
Whack it in microwave until cheese melts.

NB * this is for us strange people who love non-crunchy cheese on toast.

YANBU. I'm low carb so haven't done this in a while but never toasted on both sides.
