why's it called grilled cheese, anyway? if you cooked it on a grill it would go all horrible and burned pretty much instantly
@trwnh Yes, but putting it on a grill wouldn't turn out very well I don't think
You make it in a skillet
@trwnh interesting. like a proper charcoal-fired grill? that's always been something for rare special occasions for us
@trwnh I'm starting to think that different dialects have other meanings of the term
grilling in general all shares that it's direct heat cooking it, but both "it's on a grille over coals/wood" and "it's been cooked directly on a hot metal surface" count.
Ever been in a wafflehouse? most of their cooking is a flattop grill.
then there's the connection to hibachi b/c those restaurants at least here in the us that are called hibachi grills b/c they use giant flattop grills...
also you are now responsible for me wanting to make grilled cheese.
gonna have roommate run to store and get some provolone and sharp cheddar so I can make some
@trwnh using a directly-heated electric cooking implement instead of an open flame would probably be better for grilled cheese, yeah
@Felthry @trwnh maybe sth like a george foreman grill
