Description

April is National Grilled Cheese month! Celebrate with this Posh Pimento Grilled Cheese (with homemade mayonnaise!).

Ingredients

  • FOR THE MAYONNAISE:
  • 3 whole Eggs Yolks
  • 1 teaspoon Dijon Mustard
  • 1 cup Light Oil Such As Olive Oil Or Ground Nut Oil (the Less Flavor The Better)
  • 1 dash Lemon Juice To Taste
  • 1 pinch Salt And Pepper, to taste
  • FOR THE PIMENTO CHEESE:
  • ½ cups Chopped Pimento-stuffed Olives OR Chopped Pimento (if You’re Not A Fan Of Olives)
  • 8 ounces, weight Sharp Cheddar Cheese, Grated
  • 5 Tablespoons Homemade Mayonnaise
  • ½ teaspoons Worcestershire Sauce
  • ¼ teaspoons Pepper
  • FOR THE SANDWICH:
  • 8 slices Bread
  • 4 Tablespoons Butter, Softened

Preparation

Place egg yolks and dijon mustard in a food processor. Process for a few seconds until just mixed. Slowly add the oil (you can start adding the oil a bit faster when you hear and see that the mayonnaise is forming).

Add a good squeeze of lemon juice and a generous sprinkling of salt and black pepper.

In a separate bowl, mix the olives or pimento and the cheese.

Add 1/4 cup plus one tablespoon (5 tablespoons total) of the mayonnaise to the cheese and pimento mix, followed by the Worcestershire sauce and pepper, then mix to combine. This makes about 1 and 1/3 cup pimento cheese.

Place a large skillet over medium heat. Put 1/3 cup of the pimento cheese on each of four slices of bread.

Cover the cheese with the other slice of bread. Spread butter on one side of the bread, then place it (butter side down) on the skillet, then butter the other slice of bread.

Toast on both sides until golden brown. Cut in half and serve. Enjoy!

This was a great way to jazz up my usual grilled cheese.

This is my favorite grilled cheese. Making the mayo takes time but was well worth it. I also use an extra sharp white cheddar cheese. Perfect with a cup of tomato soup.
