Kimchi Grilled "Cheese"
"cheddar", jalapeño, sesame butter
Your childhood grilled cheese sandwiches are getting adventurous. Kimchi is a spicy, tangy fermented cabbage from Korea, commonly eaten as banchan, or a side dish. We encrust the bread in sesame seeds for extra crunch and a touch of nuttiness.

INSTRUCTIONS
Spread butter on each sourdough slice and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Arrange 2 sourdough slices, butter side down, in large nonstick skillet. Sprinkle just ¼ the cheddar on each slice and add as much jalapeño and kimchi as you’d like. Top with remaining cheddar and close sandwiches with remaining sourdough slices, butter side up.
Cook sandwiches over medium-high heat until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Cut sandwiches in half and serve with extra kimchi. (TIP: If bread is getting too dark but cheese hasn’t melted yet, lower heat.)
