Why wouldn't I fry a grilled cheese in olive oil instead of butter?

>americans

Anyone know what 3 cheeses are being used in this grilled cheese? I wanna try to replicate it.

cheddar, parmesan and american

or maybe two types of cheddar and the parmesan

Fry it in bacon grease. Fucking olive oil is disgusting.

why do you need to fry a cheese toastie? just put it on the press

id say cheddar, swiis and gruyre

>grilled cheese
>it's fried

explain this

there is no holes though for the swiss

I figure orange was cheddar for sure, lighter orange/yellow maybe a mild cheddar? Not really sure. But the other is parmesan for certain the one that looks like dead skin pulled off your big toe after hiking in wet boots.

Americans named it

the lack of oil/grease makes it grilled in a frying pan. We all know frying involves oil and there is none in a grilled cheese. Grilling is a form of cooking that involves dry heat applied to the surface of food, commonly from above or below.

It's usually grilled on, you guessed it, a grille!

Americans r dum amirite?

Mayo or Bacon Grease
butter is last resort

Frying involves either oil or fat. Butter is a fat.

>grille
Like, on a radiator?

If you marinate or cover something in butter/oil/fat/grease, and apply dry heat, it is still grilling.

Buttered bread on my GRILLED cheese erry day bro.

would not eat anything that guy touched. His hands look gross with those stupid tattoos.

That is what I was saying, though. It's grilling because it's not deep frying basically.

Because you have to hold it to eat it, and trying to wash olive oil off your hands takes forever.

>fried eggs aren't fried because they're not deep fried

Is everything made on a frying pan or griddle with only a little fat or oil grilling?

>grilled eggs

in frying, direct dry heat warms the oil and cooks the food with the hot oil. In grilled cheese, the butter does not do that. The dry heat from the frying pan directly browns the bread. Are you a fucking retard or something?

what the fuck kind of asshole would make a grilled cheese and act like its the fucking second coming of christ? why is he putting in so much effort?

because it was for his kid and he wanted to impress her so he looks like a great dad and one ups her moms cooking.

he's an asshole

if that is all he has to go off of to try to prove it, yeah. You're correct.

It's similar to the one time you get to see your kid and buy them everything they want, let them dye their hair the way they want and no rules apply when they are with you so you seem cool. Bad for kid, good for your image for a short time until they realize it.

>the butter does not do that

Uh, yes it does. On a microlevel, the butter is also browning and frying the bread with maillard reactions all up in there. That's why its so damn tasty.

This is the best YouTube video I've ever seen.

You're thinking, OP. That's good, nothing wrong with questioning conventional methods.

You also learn a lot.

Like how butter is a lot less expensive.

Like how olive oil sold in grocery stores is always fucked with.

Grilling a grilled cheese sandwich? Preposterous!

This isn't real. Is it?

Because that would make it a toasted cheese

>the butter does not do that

alright

You fucking pleb, the point of this scene in the movie is to demonstrate that he has such great passion for the art of cooking that even when its something as basic as cooking a grilled cheese for his kid at home, he still takes great care and pride in his work. Sorry there wasn't any narration to clearly explain it to you, you uncultured swine.

just because you were raised on cold white bread and bologna doesnt mean you need to sperg out and be shitty about a man making a good grilled cheese you bitter assface

are you trolling? he is making grilled cheese but he is doing it like he's plating at a michelin star restaurant. they way he hunches over it and twirls the bread around is just ridiculous, it doesn't make it a better sandwich

It's a film. They do unusual things because it looks cool sometimes.

This thread made me make a melt.

>cheese
>2 slices of nacon
>fried egg
>pickled jalapeños

Shit was good but my farts right now are killer

My question is why does this trigger you so badly

Has Chef been chewing your ass about plating?

I think it's BS too but the tops pay for that shit. Just say Oui chef and get back to work

I've honestly never made a toasted sandwich before and I just made one the exact way he does in this film and it was very nice. Different cheese tho.

Also like how Olive Oil has a pretty low smoke point

...

Racism isn't fucking funny. Back to /b/

Spanglish sandwich was better.

It's higher than butter, tho.

>frying
>cheese
>in butter
God I fucking hate Americans. I mean, I like you, but fuck all of you.

Mayo is the patrician method of grilling cheese.

I've done this before.

It's pretty good. I don't understand why it's not more popular.

>Orange
>Assumes it's American Cheese
Eurocucks realize a lot of our cheeses are dyed orange with anatto and that orange coloring doesn't automatically mean it's artificial cheese product, right? I'm not defending our cheese as good quality or anything, but orange=/= American Cheese. American Cheese is usually bright yellow, btw

You know what I use to make a grilled cheese and it turns out fucking fantastic? Just a little bit of conola oil non-stick spray- it's fucking amazing. I ate a grilled cheese using butter and realized how disgustingly greasy it is, but just little bit of conola oil spray leaves it tasting great without all that fucking grease.

>handling oiled food on a steel surface bare hand

Nigga you fucking crazy, i tried to toast aome box bread with oil and i burnt my fucking fingers, oil tends to get hotter than butter before vaporizing, this is why bread must be grilled or toasted with butter

It's not mayo
It's either room temp butter or at the very least margarine
Mayo doesn't have that texture nor would you keep it on a dish like that
You'd keep butter or margarine on a dish like that because it can often comes in solid blocks/sticks

pussy

Yeah, it's not like Europe has anything similar to that.

i like grilled cheese, but instead of cheese, i put peanut butter in there, and then honey or maple syrup on the outside and it caramelizes

i dont do it on the good pans, but it makes a delicious substitute

do people not use a press for grilled cheese?

>fry a grilled cheese

All cheese made in the USA is shit.
All of it.

It might have to do with being a yurop but all cheddar makes me barf. It feels so dense and has an overwhelming taste of dairy fat.

i prefer mine in olive oil, i think they go fine together

Being a career cook/chef pretty much means you're at least mildly autistic anyways so it's pretty accurate.

olive oil has a strong inherent flavour and can be sour for an oil, it is not compatible with any fried meal, but if you like olive oil, nothing speaks against it.

Do we?
We fry a lot of shit in fat, but usually nothing that is already 50% fat.

>Not knowing the croque-monsieur and its variants
>1973

Chef hands bro, chef hands.>what the fuck kind of asshole would make a grilled cheese and act like its the fucking second coming of christ? why is he putting in so much effort?
How is this different than a normal grilled cheese? Bread, cheese, fry.

because butter is better

>Thinking ham is raw bacon

>a slice of cheese on bread
>Americans give the bongs shit about their chip butty.

Yeah, what are you gonna do about it, faggot? I'd clatter that head of the pavement

It quite literaly is, numb-nuts. A parma/serrano ham is a raw, fatty bit of pig that has been lightly dried. Unlike bacon that is a fatty bit of pig that's been salt cured, smoked and fried. Not saying it isn't delicious as fuck though senpai.

No one puts potatoes between bread

Everyone puts cheese between bread

ew

>bacon is fried

Do whatever the fuck you want retard. What a stupid thread.

I've never tried it. Buttery bread is what makes a grilled cheese. Not saying it'd be bad, though, I'll make an attempt at some point.

was just about to say the same exact thing

Goddammit user, I'm at least 2000 miles away from any kind of decent king cake. Don't do this.

That grilled cheese has better cinematography than any I've ever made.

All these plebs who don't coat the outside with flour to give it a nice crisp crust

WE FUCKING LEARNED IT FROM YOU. Do you think that cultural traditions like cooking just fall from the sky?

>burnt butter

for some reason that made me laugh

its a fucking movie, theres nothing special over making grilled cheese, thats why hes acting it out like that, so it looks special.

You can eat ham raw but you can't eat bacon raw

I did this... I vomited, please don't repeat my mistakes.

EVOO will burn at flashpoint
