Description
The perfect grilled cheese combination of salty (from the prosciutto), spicy-sweet (from the pepper jelly) and creamy from all the cheese!
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 slices good-quality sandwich bread
- 2 tablespoons quark cheese
- 2 tablespoons pepper jelly, homemade or store-bought
- 2 ounces aged gouda (not smoked), coarsely grated
- 2 ounces white cheddar, coarsely grated
- 6 chives, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup prosciutto, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
Instructions
- Preheat a large cast-iron or non-stick skillet over medium to medium-low heat for at least 10 minutes.
- Spread 1 tablespoon of pepper jelly on one slice of bread and 1 tablespoon of quark on the other slice. Sprinkle the chives and prosciutto crumbles over one side of the bread-it should stick well to either of the spreads. Cover the prosciutto with half of the cheeses and press the two sides together. Spread a thin layer of mayonnaise over the outside of each sandwich. Repeat with the remaining two slices of bread.
- Grill for about 5 minutes on each side, until golden brown and the cheese is melted. You can always throw the sandwiches in a 350°oven for 5 to 7 minutes to help melt the cheese-it’s better to have a golden-brown crust and unmelted cheese over burnt bread and melted cheese!
