Ingredients:

  • 2 slices of sourdough bread

  • 1 tablespoon of salted butter

  • several thin slices of mild cheddar cheese, plus a handful of shredded cheddar cheese

  • several thin slices of jack cheese

  • approximately 2 tablespoons of kimchi, finely diced

Method:

  1. In a cast iron skillet or a thick nonstick pan, melt the butter over low-medium heat. Once the butter melts, place the slices of bread in the pan.

  2. Top one of the slices with a layer of the cheddar cheese and the jack cheese. Sprinkle the top of the cheese with the kimchi. Flip the other slice of bread on top of the slice with the cheese and kimchi to form the sandwich. The bread should be buttered and just starting to crisp up along the edges but not browned.

  3. Sprinkle half of the shredded cheese on top of the top slice. Using a spatula, quickly flip the sandwich over.

  4. Let the bread and cheese brown while the cheese inside melts, about 1-2 minutes. Lift the bread and once the bottom is nicely browned, sprinkle the rest of the shredded cheese on the top side and flip the sandwich over.

  5. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the cheese inside is fully melted.
