How to Make Cheese on Toast

Ingredients

Tools

Toaster Grill (or oven on grill setting) Baking tray or oven-safe plate

Steps

  1. 1

    Bread goes in the toaster

    Put 2 slices of bread into the toaster. Push the lever down. Wait for the toast to pop up.

  2. 2

    Take the toast OUT of the toaster

    Important: the toast comes out of the toaster. You do NOT put cheese in the toaster. Move the toast to a baking tray.

  3. 3

    Cheese goes ON the toast

    Lay the cheese on top of the toast. Cover the whole slice so it melts evenly.

  4. 4

    Under the grill

    Put the tray under the grill on medium. Stay there. Don't go anywhere. It takes about 2–3 minutes.

  5. 5

    Take it out at golden

    When the cheese is bubbling and golden brown — take it out. Wait 30 seconds before biting. Molten cheese burns.

What Could Go Wrong

  • Never put cheese inside the toaster. It will melt onto the elements and could catch fire.
  • Use an oven glove. The tray is hot. Hot tray + skin = bad day.
  • Stay with the grill. 2 minutes is perfect. 5 minutes is a fire.
