What is melted cheese? These days, it's not just about fondue, we also enjoy melted cheese in a sandwich, thanks to the rise in popularity of the American tuna melt with tuna and cheddar. Our chef has created a vegan version of it with an oven-fresh pavé, vegan cheese and Korean kimchi.

Mise-en-place

< Max 24 hours in advance >

Defrost and bake the Pavé Garde Chasse as indicated on the packet. Take two slices.

Preparation

Top one of the two slices of bread first with the (drained!) kimchi and then with the grated cheese. Place the other slice of bread on top and brush with the cheese sauce.
Place the sandwich under the grill until the cheese turns golden brown.
Serve immediately!

Tips from the chef

Tip 1

"This is a basic melted cheese recipe. You can come up with your own flavour combinations with additional (vegan) ingredients such as tomato, spinach, onion, spring onion and so on... Don't make your sandwich too thick, though, or it will fall apart."

Tip 2

"Want to add more veggies? That's a great idea, but you don't necessarily have to put them in your sandwich. You could serve this melted cheese with a fresh green salad."

Tip 3

"For this sandwich, I used the lighter Pavé Garde Chasse, but you can also use the darker Pavé Garde Forestier instead. The bread has a more intense flavour and the same thick crust."

Did you know?

The Pavés Garde (Chasse, Forestier and Messier) are available as pre-sliced toast bread and rustic bread. Opt for the pre-sliced variety if you want to prioritise convenience and speed. Choose the unsliced version if you want the freedom to determine the thickness of your slices. Whichever shape you choose, our pavés are always baked on stone to ensure a thick crispy crust.
