Ingredients

• 1 3/4 sticks unsalted butter, at room temperature
• Eight 1-inch-thick slices of Pullman bread (or any high-quality white bread)
• 12 ounces of premium Brie cheese, thinly sliced with a serrated knife
• 2 green tomatoes, sliced 1/4-inch thick
• 8 ounces of soft goat cheese, such as Bucheron, cut into 8 slices
• Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
• 2 teaspoons Giorgio White Truffle Oil (Shop Here)

Directions

1. Prepare the Bread and Butter

Start by spreading room-temperature unsalted butter on one side of each slice of Pullman bread. If you don’t have Pullman bread, any high-quality sourdough or rustic country bread will work beautifully. The butter ensures a perfectly golden, crisp crust when grilled.

2. Assemble the Sandwiches

Flip over 4 of the bread slices, butter-side down. Layer each with:

• 3 to 4 slices of Brie, ensuring even coverage for a rich, melty bite.
• 2 slices of green tomato, adding a fresh, tangy contrast to the creamy cheese.
• 2 slices of soft goat cheese, giving the sandwich a tangy, slightly earthy depth.

Next, drizzle each sandwich with Giorgio White Truffle Oil to infuse the sandwich with the unmistakable aroma and umami of white truffle. Sprinkle with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper for balance and enhanced flavor.

Place the remaining buttered bread slices on top, with the buttered side facing outward.

3. Grill the Sandwiches to Golden Perfection

Heat a cast-iron griddle or cast-iron pan over medium heat. Place the sandwiches in the pan and cook for about 3 to 4 minutes, or until the bottom is beautifully golden brown and crispy.

Carefully flip each sandwich over and continue cooking for another 3 to 4 minutes, pressing down gently with a spatula to ensure even toasting. The Brie should be fully melted, enveloping the goat cheese and green tomato in creamy, cheesy perfection.

4. Serve and Enjoy

Once both sides are golden brown, remove the sandwiches from the pan and let them rest for a minute before slicing. This allows the cheese to set slightly, making for a cleaner cut.

Slice the sandwiches diagonally and serve immediately while the cheese is still warm and gooey. Drizzle a little extra Giorgio White Truffle Oil over the top for an added touch of luxury.

Why This Recipe Works

The Magic of White Truffle Oil

White truffle oil is the secret ingredient that takes this grilled cheese from delicious to unforgettable. The earthy, garlicky undertones of Giorgio White Truffle Oil enhance the richness of the cheese while adding an aromatic depth that lingers with every bite. Unlike synthetic truffle oils, Giorgio’s truffle oil is made with real white truffle essence, delivering authentic gourmet flavor.

A Perfect Balance of Flavors

• Brie cheese is luxuriously creamy and slightly nutty, melting beautifully to create the perfect grilled cheese texture.
• Goat cheese adds tanginess and complexity, preventing the sandwich from being overly rich.
• Green tomatoes bring a fresh acidity that balances out the heaviness of the cheese.
• Pullman bread (or sourdough) crisps up beautifully, providing crunch and structure while holding in all the gooey goodness.

A Restaurant-Worthy Experience at Home

This recipe delivers gourmet flavors with minimal effort. Whether you’re making it for a cozy night in, impressing guests at a brunch gathering, or treating yourself to a decadent snack, this truffle-infused grilled cheese is sure to satisfy.

Pairing Suggestions

To make this meal even more delightful, pair it with:

🥣 A bowl of tomato soup – The acidity and warmth of tomato soup make it the ultimate grilled cheese companion.

🥗 A fresh arugula salad – The peppery bite of arugula, dressed with lemon and olive oil, complements the creamy richness of the sandwich.

🍷 A glass of Chardonnay or Pinot Noir – The buttery notes of Chardonnay or the light fruitiness of Pinot Noir perfectly balance the earthy truffle and creamy cheese.

Tips for the Best Grilled Cheese with Truffle Oil

✔ Use high-quality cheeses. The better the cheese, the better the sandwich. Look for creamy Brie and fresh, soft goat cheese for the best results.

✔ Don’t skip the truffle oil! White truffle oil enhances every bite. Find Giorgio White Truffle Oil here: Giorgio Truffle Shop.

✔ Control the heat. Cooking over medium heat ensures the bread crisps up while the cheese melts perfectly. High heat can burn the bread before the cheese is fully melted.

✔ Let the sandwich rest before cutting. Giving the sandwich a minute to cool after grilling prevents the cheese from oozing out too quickly when slicing.

✔ Experiment with add-ins. Try adding prosciutto, caramelized onions, or honey for an extra layer of flavor.
