Man, I dunno about that one, Jim. Chef John going over the top, there. Cheese on the outside? Mind blown. I could see cheddar fighting with the tomato soup a bit in this application. The way I like to do a grilled cheese that differs slightly is toast both sides of the bread before sealing it up with two slices of American. A little more texture that way with the extra toasting. ______________________________________________ “There are plenty of good reasons for fighting, but no good reason ever to hate without reservation, to imagine that God Almighty Himself hates with you, too.” | |||

Pro tip #1: make your grilled cheese in a skillet, not in the toaster over. Pro tip #2: spread mayonnaise on the outside of the bread, the side opposite where you're putting the cheese, then heat up that coated bread. That way you'll get that nicely toasted but not overly dry outer crust. | |||

Per request, here is the recipe: 
Note: Add a couple of tablespoons of cream or whole milk to help cut the acidity and make it creamy...Really takes it to the next level! Sorry for skimping on the grilled cheese side of the house  By the time the soup was ready I didn't waste any time with pics. Follow Corsairs lead - always make your grilled cheese in the skillet, preferably cast iron. “Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.” - John Adams | |||

Re: grilled cheese. I coat the bread with olive oil. I use shredded cheese with thinly sliced apples or pears in the middle. I grill it in a skillet. | |||

Gruyere toasted cheese when you have gone to the work of making home made tomato soup. You will thank me later. Also the stick blender makes many blending jobs easier, and may I say, generally better as you can watch consistency closely.

^^^^Gruyere!!! So good melted! The second most versatile cheese after Parmigian-Reggiano. I always have a wedge of both in the fridge. | |||

I’ve gotta boost Muenster. Tastes good, melts easily, and is usually offered in rectangular blocks. The right shape for sandwiches. Here in a pumpernickel, egg, and Muenster sammich.  Serious about crackers | |||
