i’m using a handheld over a real flame, although theres no shiny steel, ponce or artisan involved. Just a scruffy looking bloke sitting next to a fire in the woods with twigs in his beard.

Told ya…

Bought some sourdough last week to make posh cheese toasties which were reyt good. Wasn’t organic artisan baked in an oven fuelled using charcoal made from wood harvested from the lower slopes of Mt Kilimanjaro sourdough though. It was from Sainsbury’s, is that okay?

Coming back to this thread a couple of weeks ago I bought one of those new-ish design Brevilles with removable plates.
It ain’t all that so far 🙁

Just found this…another user of the sandwich iron or carp fishing pan (not sure how carp fishermen kept these to themselves)
It lived in the camper for ages, but once the secret was out it is a regular in the kitchen now straight on the gas hob, makes a cracking toasted sarnie.

cheese chorizo and chilly jam coming up!

Did anyone pick up on Binners use of the term ‘pie’, describing content not entirely surrounded by pastry.

TRAITOR TO THE PIE CAUSE!

That sounds amazing, must try one of those!

It might be nice bread but have a look at the ingredients, if it’s got yeast in it’s not sourdough and shouldn’t really be called such. Most supermarket ‘sourdough’ isn’t really.

I’d also like to put in a shout for Tallegio cheese in a toastie – so delicious and tangy and gooey when it melts. 🤤

Ridge Monkey is very good but I reckon these make slightly better toasties: https://www.castironchimineas.co.uk/PieIrons/Square%20Pie%20Iron.html

I have to say for a special occasion I’m quite intrigued by the thought of a Wigmore cheese toastie…

Just had avocado, cheese, jalapeño and sundried tomato quesadillas for lunch. Do they count as a toasty?

Unpasteurized cheddar and black pudding trumps all.

Holy thread resurrection, Batman…

Just awakening this to report that the leftovers of Saturday’s slow-cooked boeuf burgingnon with cheddar make for an awesome toastie…
