3. Two Pans
If you are cooking your grilled cheese on the stove, chances are that you are going to simply use a skillet and then cook the sandwiches together. However, if you truly want to make the best-grilled cheese sandwiches possible, it is a good idea to bring out a second pan to make your grilled cheese sandwich.
Using a second pan for your grilled cheese sandwich will help the cheese melt better. To use the second pan you will first place your sandwich in the first pan. You will then use the second pan to press down the sandwich. When it is ready, you will flip the sandwich over and grill the other side.
Pressing the sandwich down with the second pan will help to ensure that your cheese melts as much as possible. It also helps the bread to get the toastiness that you are looking for in the perfect grilled cheese sandwich.
