Dill Weed Grilled Cheese – Paired with Beer

March 25, 2017 By Jittery Cook 10 Comments

Raise your hand if a grilled cheese sandwich is one of your favourite comfort foods. It isn’t exactly news that we collectively crave grilled cheese.  But here’s a newsmaker: the wild and crazy Grilled Cheese & Beer, Recipes for the Finer Things in Life from beer brewer Kevin Vanblarcum and chef James Edward “Eddie” Davis.

Grilled Cheese & Beer  gives you 64 grilled cheese recipes, each with an ideal beer pairing. It’s party fare, date night fare and grown kids family fare. There’s a beer guide, there’s a cheese guide, and there’s an awful lot of funny puns — more than enough to keep you amused as you decide where to start. I started with simple, with ingredients I love, and was thrilled with each bite — and each swig.

Dill Weed Grilled Cheese

Dill Weed Grilled Cheese

  • 2 slices whole grain bread
  • sliced dill Havarti cheese
  • handful of dandelion greens, thick part of spine removed
  • 1 t honey or maple syrup
  • a little butter

Butter the outside of the bread, place, buttered side down, in a pan and cover with Havarti.

In another pan, steam the dandelion greens. Chop greens or leave them whole.

When the cheese is melted and the bread is golden, layer the dandelion and honey over the cheese, close the sandwich and slice on the diagonal. Serve the Dill Weed Grilled Cheese with a session IPA or Pale Ale.

      My hand is staying up, just in case anyone passes by with a half a grilled cheese sandwich.
      Actually, I’m going to need both hands to work my way through the grilled cheese cookbook, not to mention the hand I’ll need for a nice cold beer.

    HA! such fun to watch the episodes of STUDENT BODIES….a flash to the past.
    Loved that you posted. Grilled dill cheese sounds fabulous, then I read down and saw the apple version too.

    As a practicing author, I have always adopted an instinctive logic it felt natural to center on the
    subject -> develop with ideas/answers -put it on paper.
    But, nothing could save me was writing regarding thermodynamics, by way of example,
    that, as you can imagine, is not my primary field of expertise.
    Anyhow, I took some Excellent tips from your writing style, thanks to this:

    I truly enjoyed that one, since it’s filled with fascinating facts
    and it’s a kind of easygoing article. I spent only a few
    minutes reading, and due to well-structured text,
    so I understand it entirely. Thanks!

    The report is bright and clear, without the additional useless details
    or else. The speech is both brilliant and vibrant, so the longer I read,
    the longer I do enjoy it!

    I’ve been hunting for a post similar to this for quite a long moment.
    I was looking for someone who’d be able to clearly navigate me on this issue
    and was lucky enough to find you. Thanks a
    lot for the detailed explanation, you drew attention to a very common issue!
    Though I share your view for the large part,
    I believe that some factors are worth having a more comprehensive look
    to understand what’s going on.
