A sweet and savory take on a grilled cheese! Made with crispy bacon, sweet blackberry jam and our award-winning Vintage Lot 18, a Gouda aged for 18 months with notes of toasted walnuts and a slight crystalline texture.
INGREDIENTS
Serving: 2
Cook Time: 12 minutes
- ¼ cup blackberry jam
- ¼ cup unsalted butter
- 4 slices sourdough bread
- 6 slices thick-cut bacon, cooked
- ½ cup packed baby arugula
- 6 ounce wedge of Artikaas Vintage Lot 18 cheese, shredded
HOW TO MAKE IT:
- Spread jam evenly on one side of each slice of bread. Spread butter evenly over the opposite side of each bread slice.
- Top 2 slices of bread, jam-side-up, with 3 slices of bacon and arugula. Top evenly with roughly 1/2 cup Artikaas Vintage Lot 18 and remaining bread slices, jam-side-down.
- Press roughly 1/4 cup of cheese into the buttered sides of each sandwich.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Working with 1 sandwich at a time, cook until bread is toasted and cheese is crispy and golden-brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining sandwich. Cut and enjoy!
