Spread a thin, even layer of mayonnaise on the outer side of each slice (the side that will touch the skillet). Don’t worry—the mayo won’t make your bread soggy; it’ll caramelize into a crispy crust!
Step 2: Assemble Your Sandwich
Place your cheese (and any optional add-ins) between the slices of bread, with the mayo-coated sides facing outward.
Step 3: Cook the Sandwich
Heat a skillet over medium-low heat (low and slow ensures melty cheese and a perfectly browned crust).
Place the sandwich in the skillet, mayo-side down. Cook for 2–4 minutes , or until the bottom is golden brown and crispy.
Spread another thin layer of mayo on the top slice if desired, then flip the sandwich and cook the other side for another 2–4 minutes , until golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Step 4: Serve & Enjoy
Slice the sandwich in half (if desired) and serve warm. Pair with tomato soup, pickles, or chips for a classic comfort meal.
Why This Hack Works
Even Browning : Mayo contains oil, eggs, and vinegar, which break down and caramelize evenly under heat, creating a flawless crust.
Tangy Flavor : The subtle acidity in mayo adds depth and complements the richness of the cheese.
No Burning : Mayo has a higher smoke point than butter, so it browns beautifully without scorching.
Variations to Try
Spicy Kick : Mix sriracha or hot sauce into the mayo for a spicy twist.
