Grilled Cheese with Grainy Mustard image

We used cheddar cheese in these sandwiches, but any type of cheese that oozes when it melts, such as Swiss, will produce just as delicious a sandwich.

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
8 hearty slices whole-grain bread, or bread of choice, about 1/3 inch thick
3 tablespoons grainy mustard, plus more to taste
6 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Spread butter over one side of each slice of bread.
  • Arrange bread, butter side down, on a piece of plastic wrap or wax paper. Spread each slice of bread with mustard. Arrange cheese over 4 slices of bread, and sandwich together with remaining bread, butter side out.
  • Set a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Cook sandwiches in batches in skillet. Using a spatula, press down firmly on sandwiches. Cook until bread is golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Reduce heat to medium low. Turn sandwiches over, press down with spatula, and cook until bread is golden and cheese is starting to melt, about 2 minutes more. Transfer to a baking sheet, and place in oven. Bake until cheese is completely melted. Serve immediately.
