    You would never have been able to afford to eat this during rationing, that’s an entire family’s cheese allowance for a week.

    Come on now, OP. What ever other criticism you may level at that sandwich, you can’t say that cheese and raw onion is lacking in flavour.

      You do have a point. It certainly would make the eyes water. Really great to eat before a date so she knows you take gourmet food seriously.

        You two should get together.

        Try lightly toasting the sandwich too.

      You should try a Hemingway sandwich. It’s peanut butter and a slice of onion on bread. It is surprisingly delicious, savory, sweet, nutty…

    Just gotta grill that shit and everyone will be drooling for it

    source
    • TexasDrunk@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      I would assume that the texture of the onion is part of the appeal. So if you grill it you’ve got to either toast the bread or add a few chips to get that crunch.

      source
      • jaybone@lemmy.zip ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

        If you toast it in an oven or grill it in a pan just slightly, the onion will still be crunchy and so will the bread. You’re not caramelizing the onions.

    Cheese and onion is a pretty strong flavor.

        It’s actually a tradition in between Northern Illinois and Southern Wisconsin to have onion and cheese sandwiches, Limburger cheese is made in Monroe and is quite possibly the best pairing to raw onions, so I wholeheartedly believe it’s now almost entirely exclusive to the American pallete nowadays, and this post is the anomaly.

    9/10 for ingredients

    2/10 for prep/cooking

    Cut that onion in half to make 2 disks, then quarter those, add just enough water to steam, cover and cook until soft or the water steams away, add butter and sautee until the onions are medium brown. Cube the cheese and add to the onions, stir until melted, add a pinch of flour, maybe a crushed and minced clove of garlic and cook for another minute, salt and pepper to taste. Butter and toast the inside of the roll spread the cheese and onion mixture.

    Consider taking an antacid if you can’t handle garlic and onion.

    • humorlessrepost@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      if you can’t handle garlic and onion.

      At that point I’d consider violating the terms of service.

      source
      • rumba@lemmy.zip ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

        True, if you already had half an onion on bread, you probably understood the assignment. Arguably, you might break up more of the cell walls in the prep work, but the cooking probably would have tamed it all a bit.

        source
  • RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    At least caramelize the onions and melt the cheese first.

      Onion on a grilled cheese? Yes, please. And, some green olives, too.

      source
    • Nalivai@lemmy.world ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      If the ingredients are good, you don’t actually need to do that. Good cheese has nice taste that will go away if you melt it. Same as onions actually. Same with bread.

    Guys i don’t say that I want to eat it but i am saying that i also yearn to eat this thing

    source
    • PolarKraken@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      On the most shallow and vague level, me too. I wouldn’t say it looks inviting, but maybe compelling somehow. I also unironically like brutalist architecture, so this feels like it’s cousin.

      I am reasonably certain any yearning would fade mid-way through my first bite, tho, as gigantic armies of raw onion just route and slay whatever other piddling forces of flavor they can find. Cheese? Bread? Erased, never heard of em.

      Not for you?!

      It actually doesn’t sound half bad, but for breakfast? I couldn’t.

      • Techlos@lemmy.dbzer0.com ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

        Beans, toast, wilted spinach, fried tomato, sauteed mushrooms and onion, all sprinkled with thyme and served with a big cup of coffee.

        Not something I’d eat every day, but if I’m doing stage setup for a festival with back to back shifts? That brekkie will keep you going a good 10 hours.

    • Buffy@libretechni.ca ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      I don’t even like beans, but if I did this sounds like a way better texture than just beans by themselves. I don’t understand why people who enjoy them act like putting it on toast is weird.

  • Bubbaonthebeach@lemmy.ca ⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    A good bun. A tasty onion. Flavourful cheese. What’s not to like? If it was an American factory bread-like bun with American Cheese, the onion might still make it edible.

    Grill the onion and melt the cheese

      This. That’d be a fantastic sandwich if you melted that cheese, toasted the bun, and sauteed or grilled the onion.
