Step up your grilled cheese game with Aldi

Just in time for National Grilled Cheese Day

National Grilled Cheese Day is Saturday April 12th. If you’re looking for ways to step up your grilled cheese-making ability, Aldi is here to help.

Kim Brazington, a certified cheese professional with Aldi, joined “Live In The D” to talk about the different options of cheese you can use to gourmet-up your sandwich.

One of the options is Aldi’s Aged Reserved White Cheddar. “Cheddar is a great cheese to use because it melts so well,” said Brazington. “Smoked Gouda also melts really well. We put that with some pickled jalapenos, so it’s going to give it a nice kick.”

Brazington says a third option could be Aldi’s Happy Farms Pepper Jack cheese, which also gives the sandwich a little spice.

Another thing to consider is what type of bread you’re using for your grilled cheese sandwich, like sourdough or a 12-grain bread.

“Those are great breads to use in a grilled cheese because it really allows the flavor of the cheese to shine through.”
