Frequently Asked Questions About Sourdough cheese and pepper paste toast
What is sourdough cheese and pepper paste toast?
Sourdough cheese and pepper paste toast is a toasted sandwich made with sourdough bread, cheese and a spread of pepper paste. The tangy bread and savoury paste give it a more pronounced flavour than a basic cheese toastie.
How do you make sourdough cheese and pepper paste toast?
Spread a thin layer of pepper paste on sourdough bread, add cheese, top with another slice and toast until the bread is crisp and the cheese melts. Avoid overfilling it, which can make the sandwich difficult to toast evenly.
What cheese works best in sourdough cheese and pepper paste toast?
A good-melting cheese works best in sourdough cheese and pepper paste toast. In the Turkish version, kaşar is the usual choice; mild cheddar or another semi-hard melting cheese can work when kaşar is unavailable.
Is sourdough cheese and pepper paste toast spicy?
It can be spicy, but it does not have to be. The heat comes from the pepper paste, so sweet pepper paste makes a milder toast, while hot paste gives it a noticeable kick.
Can you make sourdough cheese and pepper paste toast without a sandwich press?
Yes, you can make sourdough cheese and pepper paste toast in a skillet. Cook it over medium-low heat and press it gently with a spatula, turning once so the bread browns before the cheese overcooks.
How do you keep sourdough cheese and pepper paste toast from getting soggy?
Use only a thin layer of pepper paste and toast the sandwich in a preheated press or pan. Too much paste adds moisture, while a cold cooking surface can leave the bread soft before the cheese melts.
Can you use a different bread for sourdough cheese and pepper paste toast?
Yes, country-style bread or sturdy sandwich bread can replace sourdough. Sourdough is especially suited to the filling because its tangy flavour complements the savoury pepper paste and cheese.
What can you serve with sourdough cheese and pepper paste toast?
Serve sourdough cheese and pepper paste toast with a simple salad, sliced tomatoes or cucumber. These fresh sides balance the rich, salty filling without competing with the pepper paste.
How should you store leftover sourdough cheese and pepper paste toast?
Refrigerate leftover sourdough cheese and pepper paste toast in a sealed container and eat it soon. Reheat it in a skillet or sandwich press to bring back some crispness; a microwave tends to soften the bread.
Can you prepare sourdough cheese and pepper paste toast ahead of time?
You can assemble sourdough cheese and pepper paste toast ahead, but it is best toasted just before serving. If the filled bread sits too long, moisture from the paste can soften the sourdough.
