Grilled Kimcheese Sandwich

3 Comments


Is there such thing as too much kimchi? I don’t think so. Or at least I haven’t reached that point yet. Today I have yet another kimchi dish. This time, in sandwich form. Yeah, you read the title right. It’s a grilled cheese sandwich with kimchi. Grilled kimcheese. See what I did there?

So, this dish doesn’t really need a recipe because nothing is easier to cook than grilled cheese, but… why not? I just  had to. Imagine it: ooey, gooey cheese with crunchy, tangy, spicy kimchi.

  2. Butter bread slices with butter on one side and place 2 of  them in the pan butter side down.

  1. What a great idea! Do you think other cheeses (swiss, cheddar, American) would work well?

    • Yes, I think other cheese would work out great! I just really, really love havarti. I’m hoping to try cheddar and swiss myself. If you get a chance, let me know how it tastes!

  2. I love grilled cheese and I love kimchi, how have I never thought to combine the two?!
