Grilled/Toasted cheese sandwich thread

[ThatOneLum ThatOneLum]

My go to is simple. Vintage cheddar + Ketchup or Tomato Chutney.

Maybe just the cheddar and a bowl of tomato soup in winter.

Ok so, where I'm from, béchamel sauce is the white sauce you put in between layers of a lasagne or the sauce you would use to make scalloped potatoes (cut-up potatoes baked in the oven with that sauce and a bunch of cheese on top)

Well, it's different because it's not using fried meat drippings as the fat base and, in turn, butter.
It would make it a completely different thing

Also, gravy for me is like a beef sauce. Fun little cultural differences, eh?

Dunno where you're from, so I'm going to assume not the US. We have beef gravy here as well.
It's a thick, dark brown gravy mostly served over mashed potatoes and well... roasted beef.

I'm sure it's used for other things here, but that's all I can think of off the top of my head.

I'd already eaten when I made this thread, but dang if it didn't make me hungry again anyway

Funny thing, eh?

Ah ok. Well, as far as I'm aware, that beef sauce is the only thing we call gravy here hehe

There’s probably an equivalent for it, just under a different name.
Like, scones and biscuits are more or less the same thing here and in the UK. As I understand it, scones are generally sweet, whereas biscuits are mostly not.

Some people make sweet biscuits, using honey or brown sugar here, though again typically they aren't sweet.

"What is breakfast gravy in the UK?

It's a sausage based sauce. Basically cook some sausage(without casing and break the meat up) then remove the meat and make a Béchamel with the leftover fat in the pan, season it how you like and put the sausage back in. They have it on biscuits which are essentially scones.Oct 14, 2023"

I was curious what the equivalent would be or if there was one. Béchamel sauce is more or less the same thing. XD

If it's like a scone but not sweet, then my grandmother would always call it a savoury scone. Generally speaking though, I think we just call your "biscuits" bread

No don't just season it how you like. Salt it only once and then pepper the fuck out of it.

Béchamel sauce isn’t for everyone

I’m a huge fan personally

Went to a cafe this morning and it was $30 for a ham, tomato and cheese toastie and a coffee(which I don't drink) let's just say I walked straight out

I would also walk straight out of that place and never return hehe

 

[GuyZero32k4]

Why with ham.
"Could you, would you in Japan with Godzilla and Rodan?"
Why yes I could eat ham and cheese in Japan with Godzilla and Rodan.

For a grilled sammich and probably a shitty cup of coffee? Where do you live? New York?
Dang, for 30 freedom units I can buy everything to make the sammich, coffee and still have money left over for well....
I dunno what, but something

 

[Lod 10]

Mine is a ham and cheese sandwich with ketchup, mustard, and mayonnaise, and a cold coke or any soft drink.
