Six Degrees of Grilled Cheese

Reduced-price sourdough boule at Co-op. Muenster cheese. Some of that sketchy margarine from the back of the fridge. Voila! Grilled cheese sandwiches, one of which I will take for provisions - with orange segments - to the museum tomorrow. Hooray! Muenster melts extremely well, I might add. Could have used a tomato in there, but can't have everything. Will take a pic next time.

Also, I found a TastingTable article pertaining to "sandwich scene-stealers" - ways to perk up your sandwich. The first method was using pickled fruit in concert with something rich, fatty, or meaty. The pickled figs sound particularly good to me. Like maybe on grilled cheese, omg.

The other sandwich supplement was bacon jam. Yes, bacon jam - simmered down into something spreadable including balsamic vinegar and onions. Perhaps the opposite of pickled figs. The author of the article recommends it on french toast, elvis peanut-butter-banana sandwiches, or even grilled cheese grilled cheese grilled cheese.
