What is Robert Cooking?
Rainy day comfort food my friends!
A Rye bread and Colby Jack cheese sandwich melted in a cast iron pan.
I just have to say that this was my first grilled cheese sandwich in over 30 years!
No joke!
Shortly after joining the Army in 1986, I discovered I had somehow “become” lactose intolerant. What a shocker! Since then I have struggled with dairy being put into most foods and dishes.
I tried lactose pills, lactaid pills, lactose free dairy products, and enzyme pills. Nothing seemed to help. Not even dairy free cheeses which are plants processed to look like cheese. (They don’t taste the same!)
Well, our downtown residence happens to be on Washington Square, and in our neighborhood is an expert on cheeses, Nancy, especially Parmigiano-Reggiano from Italy. She pointed out, cheeses that undergo a natural aging process — like cheddar — contain little to no lactose.
Other aged cheeses like Colby Jack, Monterey Jack, Pepper Jack, Swiss and Parmesan also contain little or no lactose.
If I wasn’t married to Neal, I have would have to confess that I have fallen in love with Jack… (jack cheeses I mean)!
TIB!
(truth in blogging)
I only helped a little with the roasted tomato soup, Neal actually made it.
It was delicious and paired perfectly with my gooey grilled cheese sandwiches.
Well it’s raining out so, Time to Eat!
