Recipe Roundup: Grilled Cheese = Love

Who doesn’t love a grilled cheese sandwich? We certainly do. That’s why our show dedicated to grilled cheese recipes and ideas was so much fun. Because no conversation about grilled cheese—or any cheese for that matter—is complete without New Haven’s Jason Sobocinski (owner of Caseus Fromagerie Bistro, The Cheese Truck, Ordinary, as well as other delicious local endeavors) he joined us in the studio and shared slabs of Narragansett Grilling Cheese with us. Heaven.

Jason helped us understand grilled cheese’s pull on us, why we love it so much, and why the best seat in the house, come Sundays at brunch, is at the Sobocinski kitchen table, where no ingredient is too precious for the waffle iron.

San Francisco’s Heidi Gibson, author of Grilled Cheese Kitchen, also joined the party and introduced us to the most over-the-top grilled cheese we’ve ever seen. Her towering Grilled Cheese Birthday Cake is a great excuse to have friends over. It serves 15-20 people, so invite us over. We’ll come. Unless it’s for brunch. We’re going to Jason’s for brunch.

Subscribe to The Faith Middleton Food Schmooze® podcast, and never miss a drop, or listen to our grilled cheese show on-demand anytime.
