Ultimate Grilled Cheese (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

01 - 2 thick slices of sourdough bread
02 - 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter
03 - 2 teaspoons of mayo
04 - 3.5 ounces of freshly shredded cheddar cheese
05 - 1 ounce of freshly shredded Gruyère

# Instructions:

01 - Warm up a cast-iron pan on low heat. Slice your bread into half-inch thick pieces and shred both types of cheese.
02 - Take a teaspoon of mayo and smear it over one side of both bread pieces.
03 - Throw the butter in the pan, lay the bread mayo-side down, stack on the cheese, and close it up with the other slice (mayo-side facing up).
04 - Cover the pan and let it cook for 2-3 minutes until the bottom turns golden.
05 - Turn the sandwich over, cover the pan again, and cook for around 2 minutes so the cheese gets gooey and the other side browns.
06 - Cut it into triangles and enjoy it right away while the cheese stays gooey.

# Notes:

01 - Freshly grated cheese melts better
02 - Mayo helps the bread crisp up nicely
03 - Slow cooking on low keeps everything melty
