I have brown bread (not quite defrosted, but let's not do that again), cheddar cheese and a fridge and cupboard full of a wide range of condiments and other stuff. Oh, and a grill.

So, suggestions for cheese-on-toast-derived culinary amazingness please.

spread a little tomato puree on the bread first.

when it's done, a dash or 5 of henderson's relish.

Keep it simple, 2 options:

1. Generous splash of Worcester sauce on top pre- grilling.

2. Marmite spread on toast before cheese going on top.

Lee and Perrins Worcestershire Table Sauce over the top of the cheese and put it under the grill again for a short time. It's brilliant.

Lots of black pepper

Here's some I prepared earlier...

Tip - toast the bread, butter the toast, add cheese, cook slowly. Pesto or Sweet Chilli on top, maybe Reggae Reggae.

Nice mature cheddar toasted to golden perfection on thick sliced home made bread, no extras or fripperies, sometimes less is more..
That's all you need, everything else is a distraction from the cheesy goodness..
unless you're the sort of pervert that puts sauce on bacon as well...

don't grill it.

butter the underside of the bread, put your chosen topping on top (cheese and homemade chutney works for me) and cook it on a wire rack in the oven for 15 minutes.

2. Marmite spread on toast before cheese going on top.

This [b]IS[/b] the best cheese on toast. FACT!

Saw a thing on telly once where they did a blind taste test, something to do with the extra taste sense we have, Umami, they gave people normal cheese on toast then cheese on toast with marmite under the cheese. Everybody liked the marmite one, even people that didn't like marmite!!

So, I've cooked, consumed and cogitated and the result is:

[i]Slice 1) Hot garlic pickle under cheese[/i]

Luverly jubbly, really, really nice.

[i]Slice 2) Tomato and brown sauce under cheese[/i]

Satisfying in a simple way. The addition of a bit of onion would have perfected it I think.

Anchovies and or pesto and or peppers

[b]What are you thinking man?!!!!![/b] Anchovies have no place on any lunch menu, or any menu at all, come to that. But to defile cheese on toast in such a manner should be a criminal offence! And Pesto? BLEURGHHHHH!!!!

I think back2basics has the winner

Damn this thread. I've rushed home from work foaming at the mouth as a result of this thread.

Cheese is in the process of being grated and I am going to be eating my body weight in cheese and what ever else I fancy spreading on toast underneath now!

Marmite and pesto is definitely a go-er, will see what else I have knocking around.

on a slight tangent my favourite melted cheese toasted snack type thing is cheese stuffed crumpets with butter and marmite on;

slice into the side of a crumpet with a sharp knife

fill the pocket with thin slices of strong cheese

toast either in a toaster or under the grill (if under the grill definitely toast the bottoms first or the cheese will try and escape when you turn them over)

spread with butter and marmite

absolutely brilliant post ride snack with a huge cup of tea

why would chops a perfectly good crumpet in half?
Shirely the 'hole :mrgreen: point is for the cheese to melt into the crumpet.

it's not chopping it in half just make it into a pocket - just so much nicer with the butter and marmite on it and cheese in the middle

as with most things in life don't knock it until you've tried it 😉

Mayonnaise underneath and chilli flakes on top. The mayo cooks and turns yummy.
