Requiring a Special Machine
We Americans grew up with microwaves and microwave ovens, but the Brits have a nifty tool in their kitchens called a toastie machine. And they’re used to make the perfect British version of a grilled cheese sandwich by sealing the edges, creating a breaded pocket filled with gooey cheesy goodness.
We already know when it comes to British meals that just like batter, the more carbs, the better. That’s why the only way to make a toastie perfectly is to butter both sides so that it sizzles in the machine. These sandwiches kick the American grilled cheese to the curb.
