Preparation

Step 1

Makes one 18 x 13-inch grilled cheese, enough for 8 to 10 sandwiches (or more, depending on size)

Preheat your oven to 375°F. Slice the focaccia so that you have two equal slabs.

Sprinkle your preferred grated cheese for as little or as much coverage as you'd like between the slices of focaccia.

Weigh the whole thing down with a heavy-bottomed pan—that's right, put a pan right on top of the focaccia—and bake at 375°F for about 8 minutes.

Slice into 9 large sandwiches, or as small as you'd like to serve at a party.
