INGREDIENTS USED IN CARAMELISED CHEESE TOAST

Let’s take a closer look at the key players that will bring this masterpiece to life. Each ingredient serves a distinct purpose, contributing to the harmonious blend of flavours and textures that make caramelised cheese toast

• BREAD

  Start with your favourite type of bread. Whether you prefer classic white bread, whole wheat, sourdough, or a hearty artisanal loaf, choose what suits your taste. I have used classic white bread to make caramelised cheese toast. The bread undergoes a transformative process during toasting, achieving a delightful contrast between a crispy exterior and a soft, tender interior.

• CHEESE SLICES

  Cheese is the star of the show, providing a melty, gooey layer that complements the sweet caramelization. At the heart of this dish lies the cheese. It’s the star of the show, the ingredient that elevates simple toast to a gourmet experience. Always opt for a cheese that melts beautifully and has a rich, creamy flavour. I have used cheese slices. You can even choose Cheddar or mozzarella cheese.

• BUTTER

  Butter serves a dual purpose in caramelised cheese toast. It not only adds a rich, buttery flavour but also helps achieve that crispy, golden exterior. Choose unsalted butter to have better control over the saltiness of your creation. The butter not only aids in caramelization but also contributes to the overall decadence of the toast, ensuring a sumptuous and indulgent experience

• BROWN SUGAR

  Sugar is the magical ingredient that transforms your toast from ordinary to extraordinary. It’s what gives the top layer that enticing caramelised sweetness and the beautiful golden hue that’s impossible to resist. You can use normal castor sugar as well but I would recommend to use brown sugar for that extra caramelised flavour.

TIPS FOR MAKING CARAMELISED CHEESE TOAST

Making caramelised cheese toast is a simple and gratifying process, but a few pointers can help you perfect it:

• Butter Both Sides: Butter both sides of each bread slice. This ensures a golden, crispy exterior on both sides of your caramelised cheese toast.
• Low and Slow: Cook your caramelised cheese toast on low to medium heat. This slow-cooking process allows the cheese to melt gradually while the sugar caramelises without burning.
• Perfectly Melted Cheese: To achieve that gooey, melted cheese centre, make sure to let your cheese slices come to room temperature before assembling the sandwich. This helps the cheese melt evenly.

Caramelised cheese toast is a delightful fusion of sweet and savoury that’s quick and easy to make. With just a handful of ingredients and a few handy tips, you can create a mouth-watering treat that’s sure to please your taste buds. So, gather your ingredients and get your pan sizzling.
