Grilled cheese-n-jam
 
Food Network had a show---I think it was "Ham on the Road"---in which
the host held a grilled-cheese-jam lottery. Three bingo cages, each
with ping-pong balls on which were written a type of bread, a type of
cheese, and a type of jam. Participants pulled one of each from the
cages, host made a sandwich, buttered both sides, grilled.

Never tried jam on a grilled-cheese before but I think I might be
hooked after only two tries. Sharp cheddar plus black raspberry on
whole-wheat, and mozzarella plus strawberry on white. The sweet jam
nicely complements the rich and slightly-salty cheese.

[Up to this point, I'd always thought that the real purpose of a
grilled cheese was to soak up tomato soup....]

Anyone have favorites in this category? I was thinking of munster and
pineapple on sourdough.

Best -- Terry

A nice whole grain, seedy bread with either Stilton or Cheshire with
black currant preserves.
