The #1 Dormmate
I don't know about you but my dormitory experience was absolutely awful. I lived in a little allergen-infested cubbyhole with a girl that spent almost every night instant messaging until three in the morning. This wouldn't have been that bad, but you see, she always kept the volume turned all the way up. Do you remember that little ba-ding noise that happened EVERY SINGLE TIME you sent or received a message? Well yeah, it sort of drove me crazy. Oh and not to mention, she had a huge obsession with Sponge Bob. Our tiny cage, i mean, dorm room had it all: a Sponge Bob comforter, Sponge Bob pillows, Sponge Bob posters, the whole package. She had it and I was not having it.
She was a great girl though. Really.
Anyway, beyond being stuck with an 18-year-old female version of the 8-year-old boy I used to babysit, I was also without a kitchen for the first time in my life. This was a hard adjustment for me. I didn't get a meal plan because I thought the cafeteria was gross so I was forced to adapt. For the first few months I lived off of Pabst Blue Ribbon, copious amounts of cereal (Smacks and Lucky Charms if you can even consider those sugar concoctions cereal) and far too many peanut butter and jellies sandwiches (aka Pea-nutter-jel-andwiches). This was definitely a fun and exciting time in my life. Living on my own, having no curfew, and doing whatever the eff I wanted was wonderful. But my palette and reputation were suffering; one can only go through the TacoBell drive-thru so much before they start to know you by name. That was, until one day, I discovered this beautiful gem.
GRILLED CHEESE - IRON STYLE
Here's some simple ingredients that changed my dorm life and probably my slammin' teenage figure.
Ingredients: - 1 iron - about a 1 square foot of tin foil - 2 pats of butter - 2 slices of hearty whole wheat (mine was seeded) - a little under 4 tbsp of shredded serious cheeses - 1 tbsp grated Comte - 1 tbsp grated Gruyere - 1 tbsp grated Ossau Iraty - .5 tbsp crumbled Stilton (or some yummy blue) To begin, Plug in your iron and put it in a safe spot. I know you probably don't have a lot of room, but this is very important, burns are the worst. If it has a steaming option, turn it off and set it to the highest heat setting (which is usually labeled cotton). From here, lay out your tin foil and butter one piece of bread. Flip it so the butter is face down.
Now pile on your cheeses! I know I definitely didn't have enough money to buy fancy cheeses like these while I was enrolled in college (and to be honest, I still don't have enough money!) and I'm not even sure if they had these delicacies available in Tallahassee (besides Sweet Grass Dairy which I didn't even know about until I was a senior..sad face). I should have totally thought about this before I did this post... BUT OH WELL. I think it would be just as good with a Kraft single, some provolone and swiss, and maybe even a slice of muenster if you're extra fancy or go to an ivy league school or something like that.
Now simply place the other piece of bread on top and butter it!
Now fold up the tin foil to create a little alien spaceship home for your sandwich. These silver packets can function as really fun and playful weapons to use when your suite-mates* are getting out of hand. You can chuck it at them in anger without hurting them and as soon as they realize what hit them in the back of the head - you're forgiven because of the warm gooey cheesy mess that's about to grace their state college oh-so-refined palette.
*Why do they even call them suite-mates? There is nothing sweet about it.
Now when your is iron piping hot go ahead and place it on top and apply some pressure. After about five minutes, carefully (it's freaking burning hot) check to see if the bread is starting to crisp up. It took me about 5-6 minutes for each side. I've heard you can also do this without the tinfoil, but at the time when I learned this method I didn't want to risk having any my beautiful Forever 21 garments spotted with butter stains. But to be completely honest, this was probably the most action my iron got during those days. And to be even more honest, I couldn't even tell you the last time I ironed anything. I really love the wrinkle release spray stuff. It saves my life or at least my appearance.
After it's all cooked up, go ahead and gently open up your packet. I think it's best to take out the grilled cheese right away because it gets kind of soggy if it stays all cooped up.
Now this method isn't only for dorm room residents. It also works really well in hotels, apartments with gross kitchens, bus stations, train terminals, dive bars and so on. As long as you have a plug, you can bring your sandwich pre-wrapped and cook it anywhere. Well almost anywhere, I'm sure the cashiers at Forever 21 might have a problem with it. Stay tuned for next week, where I present another new and exciting way to cook up a yummy grilled cheese sandwich! xoxo, GCS

Alright I'm gonna make this quick, I've got a crowded train to catch and a sixer of bud to slam. I felt bad that I left my vegetarian buds out with my previous 4th of July post, especially since I just wrote about the plethora of opportunities for vegetarian BBQ. Because of this, I decided to get real and make something that's veg-head friendly. For this grilled cheese, I combine grilled corn on the cob, manchego cheese, and pickled jalapenos. I grill it between two hearty slices of Texas toast that are smeared in smokey chile butter. And for the zinger (literally), fresh lime juice is squeezed on top for the perfect little splash of citrus. And errr, I know how what my state of mind is going to be this weekend (or lack thereof) so I'll try to make this as drunk-friendly as possible, just in case, ya know...
So liquid diets are cool and all but waking up with the worst hangover of your life sucks, so it's probably a good idea to eat.
Ingredients -2 slices of Texas toast -1 cup of shredded manchego -1 lime wedge -1 tbs of pickled jalapenos -1 ear of roasted corn -1 tbs of smoked chile butter (combine 2 pats of unsalted butter, a pinch garlic salt, 1 tsp smoked paprika, & 1 heaping tsp chile powder) Alright everyone, to begin, get a grater out and carefully grate up a cup of manchego. I know this can be tricky and it's super important that you don't get your fingers too close to the metal. It can get pretty gnarly considering how thin your blood will be at this point. If there's any kids in the room or sober people, forcibly give them this responsibility. Once it's grated, you can step back in and fumble some cheese onto the bread. Use half, or as much as you can pile on without it getting ridiculous.
Now THIS is probably the most dangerous part. Abandon ship. Give this to job to someone else. Seriously. Hand them a corn cob and shrug your shoulders. I found it helps if you make a whiny noise combined with a sad frightened face to let them realize how much of a bad idea it would be for you to use a knife right now. After they help you out, stack it on. Kiss them on the face.
Now this next part - you can totes do it yourself. Just scoop out a spoonful of pickled jalapenos, let the excess juice drip off and put a few on. If you're a bad ass you should probably use real jalapenos but I'm too much of a wuss, especially when I'm drinking and people are already probably annoyed with me.
With the remainder of the cheese, carefully plop it on and press down.
Now take that second piece of bread and put it on top. Then smear some of that yummy smoked chile butter on top.
Alright time for the kids to take over again. Have them crank up the heat to medium and gently place the sandwich in - butter side down. Don't get too close to the flames, although you probably won't care because your sense of feel has diminished, you'll regret the burn in the morning. Hangover and burnt hands? No bueno.
And because you'll probably have no concept of time, just keep checking the belly of the sandwich with a spatula. Once it's crusty and golden and the cheese has started to melt, flip it. Repeat.
When it's done take it out of the pan, let it sit for another minute so the butter absorbs and the cheese thickens, then squeeze a lime wedge on top and chow down. You should probably give the person who made this for you a bite too. They'll appreciate it.
Wipe your mouth. Blast some Tennis and some Harlem. Do some cannon balls. DON'T FORGET TO REAPPLY SUNSCREEN. Have fun! xoxo, GCS
