Goat Goddess Griled Cheese

By CheeseDiva

Ingredients

• Goat Goddess Grilled Cheese Sandwich
• A compound cheese mix can be seasoned, shaped into a log and sliced off when you’re ready to make the grilled cheese sandwich. This mix is inspired by the bright citrus and herbal flavors of fresh goat cheese and by Green Goddess dressing.
• Makes: 6 sandwiches
• 6 ounces Vermont Creamery Chèvre - room yemp.
• 6 ounces rindless Cypress Grove Midnight Moon grate cold
• 4 ounces Capriole Mont St. Francis, grate cold.
• 1 Tab. each: cilantro, parsley, dill
• 1/2 tsp. lemon zest

Preparation

Step 1

Combine grated cheeses and room-temperature chèvre with 1 tablespoon each chopped cilantro, parsley and dill, ½ teaspoon lemon zest and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Shape ingredients into a log about 8 inches long and 4 inches in diameter. Wrap mixture tightly in plastic wrap and chill 2 hours. // When you’re ready to make the sandwich, heat a cast iron pan over medium heat. Meanwhile, slather one side of 12 slices of hearty sourdough bread with butter. Place a 1-inch-thick slice of cheese mix on the unbuttered side of one piece of bread, and top with another slice of bread, buttered side up. Once pan is very hot, place 1 sandwich in it, cook until nicely golden brown, then flip and cook reverse side. Repeat with remaining sandwiches.
