Hijack THIS!

Cheetos are among the most effective rewards to motivate a 5 & 3 year old to do most anything.

Speaking of cheese. We got one of those sandwich makers the other day. Well, not really the other day. A few weeks ago to be more precise. The white plastic things with lights on the top that you plug into the mains. Inside there are two non-stick hot-plates which are joined together by a hinge. When it is open the top plate is in the air and the bottom resting on the work surface. You grease these with butter then plug it in to heat up. When one of the lights has gone out (the other stays on to tell you it is plugged in) you place one or two (depending on how hungry you are) slices of buttered bread on the bottom hot-plate. Butter side down. You place your filling on top of the bread and push it down slightly. Then on top of that you place another slice of bread, butter side up. So when shut the butter side of all bread is touching the hot-plates. Be careful when shutting it though, as steam can come out and burn your hands. You leave it for a while then check to see if it is cooked enough for you. When it is you open it up and unplug it. I recommend lifting the sandwiches and turning them slightly so hardly any of the sandwiches is touching the hot surfaces. That way it doesn't go soggy whilst it is cooling down. If you put it on a plate state away you'll be in Mushy City. I've been there, and believe me, it's not nice. I've been using cheddar a lot in my sandwiches. If you leave it in there long enough the cheese vanishes leaving a nutty taste on the bread. I leave my sandwich in there until it is a really dark brown as well. It is so much nicer than when it is golden. Lately though the bread has been sticking. I don't know why. I'll have to investigate. Right after I figure out where all the cheese goes. It is a right pain in the bum to clean though. Why aren't non-stick surfaces really non-stick? Surely that is false advertisement. That may be the reason why the last sandwich maker we had was never used and got thrown away. I'm addicted to it now.
