Adding Mustard To Grilled Cheese Is A Chef's Kiss Vibe
By SARAH MARTINEZ
Grainy Dijon mustard may not be the first condiment you think of when it comes to grilled cheese, but there’s a reason why it offers the perfect complement to the rich sandwich.
Dijon mustard has a strong, horseradish-like bite that compliments rich, greasy foods, which works since perfecting the grilled cheese is all about the right balance of flavors.
Just as people enjoy balancing a heavy grilled cheese with acidic tomato soup or tomato slices, mustard also helps to add a wonderfully acidic and spicy taste.
Thinly sliced apples are another popular filling for a grilled cheese, and mustard helps balance that sweetness. When it comes to grilled cheese, the possibilities are endless!
