A nice way of doing this is to use ordinary white bread (cut a slice from a "sandwich" loaf or a farmhouse loaf), toast it, then cover with slices of cheddar ("rind" pointing outwards wherever possible), and toast it 'till it's all meltes and has browny sports all over the surface. Stilton's very nice toasted, extremely tasty, strangely runny. Most cheeses "toast", even Edam or similar, which need slow toasting, else they'll burn. They also smell as though one's socks have burst into flame, but taste delicious.
What's your favourite cheese on toast, & method?

What's your favourite cheese on toast, & method? Thick sliced bread, a very mild chedder topped with mozzarella cheese and crushed garlic. Toasted cheese sandwiches with raw onion. :-4 They must be done slowley under a meduim grill to get the 'string effect' when you bite into them.

a nice strong cheddar on proper bread, none of that while sliced rubbish made by mothers pride and their ilk.
Not quite cheese on toast but I also like a nice brie and cranberry pannini

I like to drizzle worcester sauce over my cheese on toast
Or sometimes I like to have beans on toast and then grate cheese over that and put under the grill
It has to be a good mature cheddar. You know the one that makes your jaw hurt and tastes strangely fruity

Lightly toast one side of a slice of granary bread
Fully toast the other side
Drizzle the lightly toasted side with Lea & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce then cover with a mix of gratered mature cheddar and very finely chopped onion
Grill slowly until just starting to bubble.
Allow to cool slightly

I take rye bread, thin slices of cheddar, thin cut dill pickle and tomato slices with ham, butter the outside slices of the rye bread and then fry in a pan until golden brown.
