He used very thick* bread, the wrong cheese and cooked it on a pan over an open fireplace, the worst way to grill a grilled cheese (bread burns extremely fast, gives no chance for cheese to melt)
Thick bread? What a joke. The bread is only there to keep the grease off my fingers. Quesadillas are even better than grilled cheese because the tortilla is thinner.
Just what everyone wants with their cheese on toast, a mound of fucking kimchi.
He always does shit like that, he can't just make the dish he has to add something. He was making a great looking bread and butter pudding once then covered it in sultanas it was the worst.
It's typical of "higher artists". They get bored and they're so caught up in themselves they think everyone else is going to be blown away by whatever new different things they come up with. But then it turns out that new different thing is like an upside down urinal in art gallery.
What's wrong with raisins in bread pudding? Some people prefer without, like nuts in banana bread, but it's pretty common here in the states.
Or did he just pile dried raisins on top? We usually mix them in so they rehydrate during the cooking, or I like to rehydrate in some booze for stuff like that.
Rare miss from Gordo. I use his asparagus cooking method all the time (and I love how the video doesn't have 5 minutes of padding content) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qtkm2NsiUvc
Oh geez, as soon as he shows the cheeses he's using, it's so obvious it will never melt. What the heck was he thinking. And if you're talking up the spiciness of the pepper berries in the one cheese, why totally overwhelm that with kimchi.
Have you tried American cheese from the deli or Kraft's premium select American cheese (not individually wrapped)?
If you haven't, but claim to not like American cheese then you're missing out. It's like buying the worst, absolute cheapest version of a food and then declaring that you hate all forms of it in all dishes.
Yeah, must admit this isn't rubbing me the wrong way quite as much as it seems to be everyone else, but I'm also of the opinion that there's a high chance that things that taste good might taste good with unconventional pairings of other things that taste good. There's not much agentur to be had in the "but those don't go together because that's not how we normally do it!"-mindset. Try something new! 😃🤘
