It was like magic!

Grant and I can typically be found in the cheese section of our local grocery store, restocking our infinite supply of feta cheese for salads or branching out into something new for a cheese platter I typically offer at diner parties. I have been very impressed with the selection at our store that, although is a lovely store, can't hold a candle to Whole Foods or Andronico's. The other day, Grant handed me a shrink wrapped package of dense, yet soft, cheese and said, "What do you think this means?"

Grilling Cheese, it said.

"I don't know." I said. "Goes well with grilled foods? Or do you grill it...the cheese itself?"

We put it back and didn't think much of it. The next day, Grant sent me this article from seriouseats.com. So we went back and bought some and gave it a try.

Just salt, pepper and a little olive oil brushed on each side, a few minutes on the grill and enjoy. Admittedly, it feels very wrong to place slices of cheese onto a hot grill and visions of a dripping, oily cheddar-like mess will cross your mind but I swear to you, it will not melt. Instead it will be warm and chewy on the inside and deliciously salty and crispy on the outside.
