The Back to School

…because we’re back at school.

In the spirit of fall, witness the butternut squash, chives, rosemary, Jarlesburg and sourdough creation of glory. 

2/2 people agree!
Friend 1: “This is the best grilled cheese I’ve ever had.”
Friend 2: “This is good. It tastes like soup.” 

Honestly, as sourdough is the perfect grilling bread, there really wasn’t a part of this sandwich I would change. We baked the butternut squash first and then just added small bites to the sliced cheese, chopped chives and rosemary. I’d never had Jarlesburg before, but it was a great light swiss that complimented the sweetness of the squash perfectly (note: I want to vomit at the pretentiousness of that statement, but it’s TRUE.) Grilled in butter and not mayo, it’s a simple, sweater-weather-and-changing-leaves-ready meal.

Love and sandwiches that taste like soup,
B&A

P.S. If you take nothing else from this, just rosemary all of the things.

Challah at this 3,000 calorie gem.

Two reasons for this:

1. As a vegetarian, dessert is the best thing ever times a million because my ordering possibilities are limitless. 
2. Challah bread is like a braided, buttery cloud upon which I hope all of heaven sits.

This is a grilled cheese that pushes the accepted, limited definition as a meeting of all things great: mascarpone, Nutella and strawberries on french toast. 

French toast is one of the easiest breakfast bloaters to make and is a brunching favorite of mine. The quick and dirty proportion I favor for the dipping, eggy mixture thing is 4 eggs, 2/3 cup of milk, generous cinnamon sprinklings, magic. Just make sure you let the challah slurp it all up because it’s a super dense bread that can take it. That sentence sort of disturbs me, but whatever. 

In keeping with the rules, I grilled the sandwich after assembled, but that made the Nutella and mascarpone REALLY melty. Don’t say I told you this, but I think you could skip that part.

So, in all, things this sandwich is not:

• A good date food
  Unless licking Nutella off each others’ faces is something you and your significant other are into (and in that case, I can’t say I blame you).
• A complete meal
  I paired mine with Morning Star sausage because I am obviously so health conscious and needed my protein.
• A grilled cheese
  Surprise! This is blasphemous, but I think this just would’ve been better with the mascarpone and Nutella as a spread only. Essentially, if you take nothing else away from this post, may you always make your french toast challah because it really doesn’t matter what you put on it - shit is delicious regardless.

Mazel tov,
