The Goods

Tap each one as you gather it. Changing the servings changes these amounts, not the pan or the times, so keep an eye on it.

• 4 slices sourdough bread
• 2 tbsp softened butter
• 1 tbsp mayonnaise
• 4 oz sharp cheddar, sliced
• 2 oz Monterey Jack, sliced
• 1 tsp Dijon mustard

The Method

1. 01

   Butter one side of each bread slice, then thinly spread the mayonnaise over the butter.

2. 02

   Spread the Dijon on the plain sides and stack the cheddar and Monterey Jack between them, buttered sides out.

3. 03

   Cook in a skillet over medium-low 4 minutes per side, lid on for the first side, until deep gold and melted.

Ms. Coley says: Low heat. Rush it and you get burnt bread around a cold middle.
