Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Gouda cheese
- 100 grams Edam cheese
- 4 slices Sourdough bread
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 1 tablespoon Fresh chives (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Grate the Gouda and Edam cheeses and set them aside in a bowl.
In a small bowl, mix the Dijon mustard and honey until well combined.
Spread the Dijon-honey mixture evenly on one side of each slice of sourdough bread (this will be the inner side of the sandwich).
Divide the grated cheeses evenly between two slices of bread, piling it onto the mustard-honey side.
Place the remaining two slices of bread on top to form sandwiches, with the mustard-honey side facing inwards.
Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Place one sandwich in the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, pressing gently with a spatula, until the bread is golden brown and crispy and the cheese is fully melted. Repeat with the second sandwich, adding more butter to the skillet if needed.
Transfer the sandwiches to a cutting board and let rest for 1 minute before slicing in half.
Garnish with chopped fresh chives if desired, and serve immediately while warm and gooey.
