| Aww...they're friends. |
Alright, let's get this disclaimer out of the way right at the top:
1. I'm not saying this should be a part of your daily routine.
2. I'm not saying this is good for you.
3. I am saying it's actually pretty damn tasty.
I read an article a few months back about a place in Ohio (Cincinnati, I believe) that served nothing but grilled cheese sandwiches. Now I'm sure they offer your standard, run-of-the-mill Kraft single on white bread, but the appeal is that they offer a ton of varieties. Being a fan of this most simple yet overly delightful sandwich, I read on.
It was then that I read about one of their more popular and more unique offerings: The Glazed Donut Grilled Cheese.
Like it or not, you read that correctly.
At first, I think my thought was, "The what??" But then I thought it over a bit and realized it made complete sense. I remember being pretty young when my Dad tried to talk me into melting a piece of American Cheese on top of a piece of apple pie (it's a Southern-type thing) and I thought he'd lost his mind. Eventually, he wore both my brother and me down and we tried it. It kicks a great deal of ass and I highly recommend it the next time you have apple pie. It would work equally well with a good cheddar, too, but I think Kraft American is probably how it started down south.
So, yeah, I liked cheese with sweet apple pie, I've had plenty of cheese plates that feature fruit and honey...maybe this place in Ohio was on to something! Only one way to find out...
Kind of like the pie example I cited above, I think the sandwich would be excellent with cheddar and maybe some smoked turkey or something like that added to it, but for my first foray, I decided to stay traditional with 3 ingredients:
1. Glazed Donut
2. American Cheese
3. Butter
Well worth trying and experimenting with! Get the highly complex recipe here.
