“Terrific recipes” for the classic comfort-food sandwich, plus a cheese glossary and tips on breads, mustards, and more (Seattle Times).

Toasted golden in a pan or browned to melty perfection under the broiler, grilled cheese is the ultimate comfort food—and a meal in itself. And believe it or not, it just got better.

Marlena Spieler has created fifty mouthwatering new takes on this fromagophile’s favorite. Her tantalizing pairings range from hearty Sage Sausage and Jack Cheese with Preserved Lemon to Melted Alpenzell, Emmentaler, Pear, and Cumin. There are also plenty of new twists on the tried and true, such as Smoky Bacon and Cheddar with Chipotle Relish or Fresh Mozzarella, Prosciutto, and Fig Jam. Also covered are some tasty party-time tidbits like Crostini alla Carnevale. With an array of quick-to-make mustards, and tips on choosing the perfect bread for each sandwich, this cookbook gives you all of the sizzle—and all of the cheese!
