His videos are also recorded and cut that way, so I think the editor that does it also exaggeres on this behavior. I think it's about intentionally trying to emulate "chaos in restaurant kitchen" kind of cooking. After all, Gordon as media person is a character, the man Gordon in reality is, must have some same qualities, but he's not this character as he's on camera. It's the same with most celebrities, many develop a character unintentionally. And sometimes it's intentional exaggering behavior to produce something that sells. No human is immune to this, and every individual has multiple roles in their lives, where they behave differently depending on surroundings, social setting, work expectations etc...

I think Gordon obviously botched his grilled cheese in the video with the high heat and thick ass bread... BUT the idea of cheese and kimchi is something that is quite common in the Korean cooking sphere and is commonly seen in Korean comfort food actually. The spicy, acidic kimchi lends itself quite well to something greasy like cheese. Love the video as always, James. Wishing you all the best.

@ChefJamesMakinson 3 месяца назад

What I find I like most about Chef James...zero pretentiosness. There was a cooking show around when I was a kid called "The Frugal Gourmet." In this case frugal did not mean inexpensive. His show would go something like this "Go get yourself a nicely dressed and prepared pheasant." Chef James' approach "I'm using a pheasant, but if you can't get that grab a nice size chicken or duck." It's refreshing that I don't feel I have to scour the universe for rare ingredients, like Kraft American singles.

@TrappedinSLC 3 месяца назад

We RV and the sheer variety in terms of cheeses stocked at *Walmart* in different areas of the country is fascinating. You'd think they'd all be quite similar, right? But no. Not at all. There was one Walmart we went to where you legitimately couldn't even get a half-decent cheddar. It was American slices or the "cheddar" equivalent or nothing. That was weird.

@jishani1 3 месяца назад

@@chrissolace that's not entirely true. Yes, there are lots of varieties of pre-shredded cheeses on the market, they're more expensive than just buying the blocks of cheese and shredding them yourself. Walmart has blocks of cheese, they make their great value branded ones, and then there's generally cabot, sargento and cracker barrel as well in the same section as the shredded cheese. They have more specialty cheeses up by the front in the produce section. Any grocery store with a deli counter is more than willing to cut you a slab of cheese off one of their blocks or sell you an unopened one as well. Every step of processing that goes into food increases the cost. Compare chicken breasts and chicken breast tenderloins. Same cut of chicken, one has been cut into strips, almost $1 per pound difference in price. Same with the shredded cheese. It's more expensive to buy the bagged stuff than to buy the blocks.. it's just a lot more convenient and not prohibitively more expensive so people do.

Highly recommend chopping and pre frying your kimchi before you put it in the grilled cheese. Will intensify the flavor, remove a lot of the water, help the cheese melt. I would also dice up a sweet onion and fry that with it. It will be a completely different sandwich (one you might actually be excited to eat)

@jonathont7866 3 месяца назад

Koreans have a whole thing called 'korean street toast' which is basically elaborate toasted sandwiches that are a hugely popular breakfast - kimchi and cheese is actually common there. I'd use different cheese though. At home a favourite toastie is white bread, mayo on the outside; with either canned tuna or poached chicken, kimchi, sliced red onion and raclette (sometimes I go for sharp provolone instead). It's really delicious, and putting kimchi in the sandwich makes you feel super virtuous. Kimchi is really good when you cook it, I love putting it in an omelette as well

On the topic of putting butter on bread: In Swedish, a sandwich is called "smörgås" (butter goose) and of course typically has butter spread on it. The "butter goose" was originally a lump of butter that floated to the surface as you churned milk, which was often picked out and eaten as a treat with bread.

@EnglishVirgo 3 месяца назад

I didnt grow up with cheese toasties, we had cheese on toast, so pretty much open faced. My dad made them. I don't know exactly what he did to them or what was in the cheese mix, but I still have fond memories of that thick piece of white toast with a thick, golden, bubbling layer of cheese. I know that it had finely chopped onion in it too, but no idea on what else was in there, but I know that there was something. It was rich and tasty and I both wanted to eat one after another for the whole day, but also couldn't because it was rich. That it is one of my best memories of my childhood tells you how gorgeous it was. I would ask him to make some nowadays, but I can't eat bread, butter, onions or cheese now, so it would mess me up, but it was really good.

@adelaideharper9201 3 месяца назад

Fun fact: Kraft cheese is cheddar scraps, melted down, and whisked with sodium citrate to give it that texture, make it hold together while melting, et cetera! They also add food starches and a few other things but sodium citrate on cheddar gets a similar product. The protein in the mayonnaise from the egg encourages browning! I prefer the flavor of butter for pure cheese sandwiches but for a tuna melt... I love your videos and admire your bravery for taking on the Gordon sandwich.

I like a sourdough with big bubbles in it. You don't have to make a silly crown, the cheese will just ooze down and touch the pan, giving it some delightful crusty spots.

@VoIcanoman 3 месяца назад

6:38 I think the reason the mayonnaise works is more to do with the egg yolks it contains (as opposed to the oil). The amino acids in the egg react with the sugars in the bread and do a nice little Maillard dance together. The oil obviously helps with heat transfer, and using a tight crumbed bread as suggested makes the surface-area-to-volume ratio quite a bit higher, enabling maximum crisp.

@TrappedinSLC 3 месяца назад

It's sort of a 'cheat's' French toast/eggy bread concept. It doesn't soak into the bread fully so you don't get the custardy insides but you get the same sort of crust on the outside.

@DiamondCake2 3 месяца назад

Nice theory but commercial mayo contains barely any egg yolk, it’s packed with thickeners, flavourings and even sometimes water.

@VoIcanoman 3 месяца назад

@@DiamondCake2 Says on the package that it contains 8.9% egg by weight (free range, apparently, although I have my doubts about that particular claim). That's actually a slightly higher egg content than a lot of homemade recipes, which generally use the ratio of one egg yolk per cup of oil.

I'm a huge fan of the cheapest Jorge Forman grill you can find(basically a 15$ panini press) for making grilled cheese sandwiches. My two favorites are 1) you skipped but a pan bimbo with fake cheese is amazing and 2)brown wheat bread, aged cheddar, and a dash of sweet hot mustard(microwave 15-30 seconds first to ensure full meltyness) mayo spread on the outer bread because butter will be difficult to spread after the microwave.

I think that frank's grater method is probably safer for a lot of people, especially if they don't use a grater very frequently, and also allows a more relaxed hold on the item since you can push with your palm opposed to having to grip it. While not quite the crown that Jamie had, my town has a 50s style diner that serves cheeseburgers and cheesefurters with a "skirt" of like 4 pieces of cheese(picture it like the windows logo) that they fry up on the flattop. Most people i know then fold them into the bun and you get a nice stack of the fried cheese, would recommend. Who would have thought that actually melting the cheese in your grilled cheese would improve it, for gordon's.

Chef, I think the Epicurious and the Smashed Brioche were by far the best of the grilled cheese sandwiches you prepared and sampled. Jamie with his chutney preference on everything is hilarious.

As a celiac, I cant actually eat grilled cheese but I love making them for my people. my favorite is using fresh Black Russian bread, Mozzarella and jalapeno Havarti with a slice of sweet onion between the cheese in the middle. butter the pan well, put the sandwich in the pan on medium low and put a lid on the pan. check often and when the bread sounds scratchy in the pan, flip it and repeat. once the cheese is melted, remove the lid and keep flipping as needed to caramelize the bread. let it sit on the board for a moment to settle then slice and serve.

This was good content, @ChefJamesMakinson. When I was lacto-ovo vegetarian, I learned a LOT of variations, including sometimes adding in veggie ham or veggie turkey. Dining out, a go-to at places with few options for me was one of two things: Either grilled peanut butter, lettuce, and cheese (the lettuce added after it's cooked, or a grilled cheese done "all the way." Around East Tennesse, that means with mayo, lettuce and tomato added. It's not health food, as you said, but it was fairly quick and easy, and wait-staff didn't usually look at me like I had grown a second head, as they would with the peanut butter. As for that, I have no idea why people freak out about it, as peanut butter in cheese crackers is a snack food most Americans have had, and liked. This is that, but hot, less salty, more greasy, but with lettuce, for the texture and moisture. My go-to breakfast sandwich was egg and cheese, which can also be done grilled for lunch or dinner. For field trip lunches, mom used to do it fried, yolk still runny, sealed in by the cheese slice. People also do them with tuna salad, ham salad, etc., and those are called a "[whatever the meat is] melt." I am sure you know that! lol You just got me thinking. P..S. Being Vegan is hard, because dairy cheese is truly addictive, and currently, the already pricey Vegan cheezes tend to suck very badly, while the artisanal ones are far too expensive for me to even try. Anyway, thanks for doing this. I like to do these using mayo on the outside for my husband, sometimes adding in Kroger bac'n buds (which are Vegan). Quick, easy, and adds protein. Be well.

Kimchi Grilled Cheese sandwiches are pretty typical here in the US. They're on quite a few menus and there are tons of recipes online for them. All I mean is it's not that odd in the US. There's even a recipe for one on Maangchi's website. _The_ go-to lady for Korean cookery.

I remember looking for cheeses a few months back when I wanted to make some burgers. Did manage to find processes cheese slices like kraft for a decent price, with cheddar and all that.

@BeesAndSunshine 2 месяца назад

Kimchi, or anything pickled really, pairs great with cheese. I always include something pickled on nachos. I don't think I'd put it directly on the sandwich and cook it with the cheese though, because cooking the kimchi will make it mellow and you'll be adding a lot of moisture and volume to the sandwich. Kimchi on the side would be great, and could replace ketchup or tomato soup as an acidic element. Alternatively you could use kimchijeon instead of bread or just make kimchijeon with shredded cheese in the batter.

Grilled cheese with kimchi AND carmelized onions are amazing. Started making them when my daughter was on a kimchi kick a couple years ago and theyre still my favorite. The sweetness from carmelized onions really balance the kimchi well and ties it all together.

Havarti cheese also goes amazingly well with fried chicken. I would highly recommend it on a chicken sandwich if you are planning to have something like that.

@Geredis089 3 месяца назад

I have to admit, Gordon is absolutely on to something, and I tend to do a mix of all of these styles. A nice country bread, buttered on the outside, a touch of mayo on the inside, with some shredded cheeses of your choice, with shredded kimchi, cooked in such a way that you do get all that crispy overflow as well, makes for an amazing sandwich. I'll also not infrequently add a little bit of sriracha, sambal, or another hot sauce on the outside as well. Sometimes for flavor, but quite frequently as a marker so I can tell them apart when I'm cooking several with different fillings and such.

The Gorden Ramsey Grilled Cheese reminds me of a Ruben Sandwich. They use the German style pickled cabbage (sauerkraut) rather than kimchi; a pickled meat, pastrami, is also added .. sometimes substituted with corned beef if it's not available. I've used Kimchi in place of sauerkraut a few times when I've made rubens myself. It works... because there is also typically a nice spicy mustered added to the sandwich as well. So when the cheese is melted correctly, like in an oven or dutch oven, it was probably pretty good. But, Gorden's air b&b was probably out of propane. For some reason he improvised and failed, and they published it.

Grilled cheese without bread here in Greece is called Saganaki but it's made using a hard cheese not melting cheese and cooked until the outer layer has enough of the Maillard reaction, then served as a side dish usually diced with as finger food.

@StrikerEureka85 3 месяца назад

first, the whole "lathering the sandwich with mayo" thing works great and it's a trick that i learned from another youtube channel called "not another cooking show". great channel, i might add. he makes mostly italian recipes. would be great if you tried to recreate one of his recipes. second, there's Bimbo bread in Spain????? interesting.

@BN99239 2 месяца назад

Mayo is also eggs, so eggs will brown and become yellow/golden brown. A lot of mayo also has some form of acidity to it as well, so it could add another layer of flavor or cut down on the fatty, heavy cheese.

@grasstoucher8503 11 дней назад

American cheese snob here. The reason the Kraft substitute 'cheese' didn't work is because that stuff is loaded with chemical emulsifiers to keep the fats bound to the water. With other cheeses you can see how the oil separates quickly when crispified. Cheddar or parmesan would have worked better for that purpose because they melt well, but still release the fat. Kraft is good if you want something that's solid at room temp but takes almost no heat to liquify.

I refuse to accept that the first one is a grilled cheese sandwich, not because it’s not a sandwich, I can accept that. I reject the idea that American plastic slices are a real cheese.

@Skenjin 3 месяца назад

I like mixing three cheeses. A flavorful hard cheese, and two nice and melty cheeses. When grated together it should still melt well while being flavorful. (I cant have tomato soup anymore, so have to make the grilled cheese pack more umph).

Normal white bread, slightly toast the inside mainly to warm it up. Buttered outside, after the inside is warmed(no more than hints of brown or the crispness inside iwll be too much for me), go butter side down, cheese on top, cover, let the cheese start to melt, then flip it together, all on a nice cast iron griddle. Works super well.

Chef James, You remind Me of My Best Friend from high school. James was always experimenting in the kitchen! He had this insanely good way to cook a hamburger on the stove. He took worchestershire sauce, A1 sauce, and cayenne pepper sauce to marinade while the patty was cooking! I still use it to this day. Uncle Roger would say that there is Nothing more White Bread than Jamie Oliver! Keep up the great work! 😊😊

I never made kimchi sandviches so...exspensive, and mostly use thin slices of cheese, also use my garlic butter on bread for more taste huh. But honestly since i opened this kimchi+cheese combo for myself years ago, I just love it.

@MarcIverson 3 месяца назад

Re bread-less grilled cheese, every try a chaffle? It's a waffle made of cheese, basically, and an egg. A half cup of grated cheese per egg, mixed well, made in a waffle maker(though you could cook it in a pan too). You can use a chaffle as bread, and there are even stuffed waffle/chafffle makers. They can taste too eggy, but adding things like coconut flour, psyllium husks, etc. can take the eggy taste out almost entirely.

If you don't have a non-stick pan at hand, a small cut of baking paper should work. I usually put these under the meat and cheese when I'm making burgers, so the next patty doesn't pick up any burnt cheese. Also, who the fork puts ketchup on a bare wooden board? It seems Jamie read a page or two in Adam's book of board seasoning. Yummy!

Koreans love to have kimchi with cheese, since both are fermented foods. BUT not raw kimchi, it must be stir-fried. For example, putting cheese on the kimchi fried rice is one of the best kimchi and cheese combinations.

@riftdancer1349 14 дней назад

If you ever want to make American cheese, NileBlue has a tutorial on the process. All you need is cheddar cheese, water, butter, sodium citrate dihydrate and sodium hexametaphosphate. You melt it all in a pot together, then pour it out onto a flat surface or a mold to cool.

I've never tried to make that 100% cheese grilled cheese sandwich, but if I wanted to, I'd use young Gouda. Gouda sweats out its fat pretty easily, and I'm familiar with the texture of fried cheese you see in that first video, because I get the same kind of thing when I'm frying eggs with Gouda on top, and some of the melted cheese runs off the egg and comes into direct contact with the pan. It's delicious, actually, so I like to make sure to put some cheese near the edge of the egg to make sure I get some of that crispy stuff.

My Oma was also a fan of buttering her bread for sandwiches. Actually she'd go so far as to cut thin slices off and add them as toppings. It does seem to be a European thing. Considering how difficult it was for you to source you may find it fun to make your own American cheese for future videos. It is simply an emulsion of mild cheddar and sodium citrate. Which can be purchased online or made with citric acid and sodium bicarbonate. Gavin Webber, certified cheese monarch, has a good video on it. Of course you don't need to stop at mild cheddar as pretty much any cheese can be "Americanized." Although doing so to that nice manchego would probably get your neighbors to drive you out of town. Doing it to parmesan reggiano, which would be difficult since it's aged, might cause enough death, destruction, and mayhem among Italians to make you a threat equal to Mt. Vesuvius.

Make sure both sides are toasted real good then put on a plate and cool and eat.
