If you're going to make any type of grilled cheese sandwich, the cheese is totally the most important ingredient, we agree on that, right? Some varieties of cheese melt but then turn stiff again as it cools, other cheese might take on a strange sheen to it. Eventually you finally find a gooey melty cheese but what the heck..it tastes like the packaging! Belgioioso Provolone Cheese doesn't fit into any of these categories. It melts easily, It looks stretchy and It tastes like a good aged cheese. Perfect for my Croque Monsieur Grilled Cheese!
Belgioioso Provolone is made in Wisconsin, where they know how to do dairy! The flavor is nutty, like a really good Parmesan but remember this is a sliced cheese. It's perfect for adding to a lunch sandwich but for me, this cheese is a melty cheese. Use it in pasta, pizzas and of course any type of toasted sandwich, like my Croque Monsieur Grilled Cheese! It's an easy sandwich to make with only a few simple ingredients and steps. Take two slices of french bread with a thin layer of dijon mustard, topped with smoked ham and Belgioioso Provolone and covered in a creamy Grana Parmesan béchamel. Throw it under the broiler until the top bubbles and you've arrived at you're melted cheese happy place.This is a knife and fork sandwich friends, messy but sooo tasty!
As the béchamel sauce cools, it may thicken. Just add a few drops of milk and whisk to bring it back to a pourable consistency. It should be creamy but able to fall from a spoon when scooped.
