Excuse me as i cry finally getting to see Grandma OK again.
Really? What happened
@@taya____ its been 4 months since the last video with Grandma OK. Ive missed her lol.
Finally
Same. We Love you Grandma OK!
Geez! You scared us. A bit of an overreaction.
its crazy how a simple dish is prepared differently depending on the person !
I always cook it in the toaster oven and don't use butter. The tomato soup with basil looks so yummy.
Sometimes I just make 2 slices of regular toast in the toaster and then put 2 slices of American cheese between the toast and then microwave it for 30 seconds.
I always put the butter directly on the bread first. Never thought of putting it in the pan
True! It's gotta be Cheddar for me, richer in taste. When I saw the Mozzarella, I cried a little (just kidding).
The type of bread doesn't matter to me.
Pan fried is what I love the most, but the cheapest toast with Gouda in a Sandwich maker is basically my childhood, and nostalgia is the best MSG
So funny! Growing up we would butter both bread before they went on the the pan, so you don’t have to take it off at any point. And we used Gruyère cheese mostly, or American. Swiss and cheddar also hold up. Mozzarella feels questionable lol.
Glad to see Grandma OK's appetite is still going strong 💪👵
My face lit up when I saw Grandma, I'm so happy to see her again
It was so great seeing Grandma OK. I used to make grilled cheese sandwiches for my kids when they were little. I use cheddar cheese, but I didn't think about the mozzarella cheese. I don't like grilled cheese or tomato soup.
I made myself a grilled cheese yesterday using Mozzarella. I also sprinkled drops of Frank's Hot Sauce on the cheese. And some freshly grated Parmesan Cheese pressed into the butter on the outside.
@@kenmolinaro I found a recipe from using grilled cheese machine to use bread to make own hot pockets just like real hot pockets. Just add whatever you want in it.
I had no idea my mom didn't like grilled cheese either, but I grew up with her making it for me all the time, and even sometimes when I'm an adult!
When I said why is she making something if she doesn't even like it!? Her answer is: "Because I know you love it". - my heart.. I will never forget that moment. Or the way her grilled cheese always tastes the best.
Moms are amazing. You sound amazing too. Thank you moms ♥
I have many feelings about the best grilled cheese, but that one looked like it turned out well so I can't complain.
Savannah, if your bread breaks from spreading the butter on it, I suspect you just need to soften the butter more before spreading it on the bread.
That said, you can also try substituting mayo on the bread, it will always spread easy and it fries up into a lovely crunch too.
Smooshing it down can help with crisp. Butter the bread and dip it in parmesan for a nice touch. And ypu are absolutely right mayo is the bomb. I say its a must have on grilled cheese
I've taken to melting the butter in the pan, and then quickly dipping the bread in that butter to coat it. I don't leave it in yet to cook, but rather pull it out and do the same to the other piece. Then I assemble and cook the sandwich.
@@lesbolord8290 dam bruh love the user hope ur lesbian tho
@@Mitskibiggestfan Yes I am big gay. I love my girlfriend very much
@@lesbolord8290 ight ight
luv u grandma OK you remind me of my late grandma. She LOVES food and she's also very cheerful and innocent like u💖 Everytime i watch ur videos u always put a smile on my face (as well as my mother's we watch your videos together haha) I HOPE U GUYS CONTINUE TO MAKE VIDEOS. LUV UR VIDS💖💖💖
My mom jokingly calls me un-American because I've never liked grilled cheese nor tomato soup. I love bread, cheese, and tomatoes in plenty of other dishes though!
Grandma Ok giving the Side Eye to the other half of the sammie like 👀 You gonna finish that? 🤣 Love her 🤗
AWW hello Grandma ok.. I missed seeing you. Glad you enjoyed a grilled cheese.
I’ve been making grilled cheese sandwiches all my life, and I’ve never seen it done like that. You don’t get the full, rich, crunchy crust on the outside if you put the butter directly in the pan.
You do. And your bread doesn’t get soggy
@@codename495 The bread doesn't get soggy either way. You're putting butter on it, not soaking it in milk. And I'd have to see to believe about the crust. It certainly didn't look like it in this video.
In my household, we like to use more ingredients if we want. I personally like to combine spicy cheeses and mild cheeses, pesto, avocado, eggplant, and tomato. Some family members add chicken, sometimes bacon, sometimes ham. Really it’s a very versatile dish and I think that’s why it’s so popular here. We also dip in different types of soup if we want to. I like mixed vegetable soups, but nothing beats tomato.
Oh you should try my Breakfast grilled cheese. It is a crazy concoction no doubt. We have one of those sandwich press handheld grills for the stovetop. So fun to use. I like to put my buttered bread grill side down, add my fixins (which is American cheese, a fresh egg, already cooked bacon, fresh tomato slices, avocado slices, and a small leftover boiled potato sliced, then one more slice of cheese before smooshing it all together between the bread and grill plates). Let it cook on both sides evenly. Then flip out a nicely crispy closed sandwich. And I add a little mustard and sour kraut to the top. OMG is it so good. Haven't had it in over a year. But it is delicious. Have to eat it with a knife and fork though.
Ham and cheddar is the best way to go!
Apples work really well, for a more sweet grilled cheese. And one my family does is roast beef, green chiles, and jack cheese.
OMG IM EARLY. PLEASE tell grandma we love and miss her so so so much!! She is the best and always makes me smile. She loves food so much and I absolutely adore her fir it and she is so respectful of everyone. Best grandma ever! 🥺 😭😭❤❤ Thanks mom!
Everyone has their own way to make grilled cheese, I use mayo for a crisper toast and toast both sides. I used American cheese or a mix of provolone with mozzarella, depends what I have. I add garlic powder, black pepper, chives, and a little bit of Cajun seasoning. If I have any leftover veggies that are going to go bad like bell peppers or tomatoes, I'll stick some in there. No tomato soup for dipping, it's good on its own! 🤤
So glad to see Grandma again! 💖The grilled cheese sandwich was also good 😀
Grandma! I was getting worried - I am so glad to see you again!
So happy to see grandma is doing wonderful and Of course to see her enjoying something new. So special.
I love grilled cheese. A great tip is to apply mayonnaise to the outside of the bread and fry it in the butter. The egg content in the mayo keeps it from burning quickly and makes a super crispy exterior.
Oh my heart! 🥰 I loved this video way too much!! I missed Grandma OK. She is the most precious person. So glad to see her again. Watching her enjoy a meal is so heartwarming. Thank you for so generously sharing your Grandma with us. 💕
You gotta try this with American Cheese. It's so so good when dipped into tomato soup.
I like cheddar best for my grilled cheese, but american cheese is the classic. everyone does it a bit different hehe
@@hanjis5894 what kind of cheese is american cheese? I've never heard of it before
@@SaheeliRai It’s like a creamier sliced cheese that’s very processed. Honestly i’m not sure exactly what goes into it lol!
@@SaheeliRai It's that Mcdonalds cheese that resembles plastic.
@@hanjis5894 I agree cheddar though Colby isn’t bad if no cheddar around
yay! Grandma OK! so glad to see her again!
I love grilled cheese and tomato soup too! Grandma OK is my spirit animal ❤
So Happy to see Grandma OK again!!! It's been a while and I am so relieved she is OK and hasn't changed a bit!
Yay! Grandma OK is back.
LOVE grilled cheese 🧀
Try it with some garlic butter. It's so good.
Grandma OK! It's so lovely to see you, and hear Zoe, again!
Love this collab! Grandma OK is the best 🥰
I love the idea of having different people show your grandma how to cook things, or both of you. Sharing of cultures. I used to live in Seoul, and I remember when my friend took me to Geojedo to visit her family’s pension. I got to watch them make kimchi (and help a little) and that was some of the best kimchi I ever ate. It was the first time I realized how kimchi and side dishes varied by region. Anyway, your grandma reminds me of how kind all the elders were to me in Korea. My first night in Seoul, I was left by my school manager at a kinda sketchy love motel in Gangnam, and I was honestly pretty tired and disoriented, not to mention suffering from a language barrier. I walked down the block and went into a restaurant, only to find I couldn’t read the menu. The owners were so kind. The elderly man spoke a little English and understood it was my first day in the country, so they really welcomed me and brought out dishes they thought I would like. I had bibim bap for the first time that night and it was so good! They even refused to let me pay, though I kept trying. I went back to that restaurant at least a couple times a month during the four years I was in Seoul. I had favorite street vendors too - places where they joked around with me, trying to get me to try new things and pounded me on the back, cackling, the first time I tried soju and nearly coughed up a lung haha. Or the time I went to the New Year festival at one of the palaces and played games, and a little (but very spry) grandma jumped on a board with me and knocked me clean off lol. That kindness left me with really fond memories of my time there, and watching your videos with your grandmother reminds me a lot of those people I knew.
Interesting. I always butter both sides of the bread, and have never had any trouble.
I usually use american or cheddar, but now I definitely wanna try mozzarella.
I will watch anything with Grandma OK! She’s adorable and reminds me of my fail interactions with my grandmothers LOL. The awkward giggle when we don’t understand each other but we pretend we get the point but then we’re waiting for the other to respond but no one realized a question was asked.
If you have an air fryer, it makes the bread sooo crispy! You can also use different cheeses together or meat. I've never tried adding cooked vegetables but as long as they're drained, that could work too.
I feel like her grilled cheese is nicer than mine... the bread looks soft. I use fancy cheese though LOL
Grandma ok we’ve missed you!! 🥺🥰
Nice to see Grandma OK! ❤❤
When I make grilled cheese I put butter on the bread, then cheese in the middle. I cook it on low heat so that the cheese melts in the middle (I also sometimes cover it with a lid so that the heat stays inside the pan) Then I flip it over a few more times to get the bread extra toasty and crispy,
awww missed grandma. Good to see her doing well and still her upbeat self
Hey I'm American and I use kitchen scissors! I have at LEAST a dozen pairs of scissors for specific tasks. Haircutting, fabric, yarn, kitchen, opening boxes, crafts, wrapping paper... Lol
yeah I also thought that was a little strange. I feel like kitchen scissors are pretty common here.
@@aday4evr yeah all of my family, both sides, and all my friends and their families that I know use them. And they're not even all from the same regions in the USA lol so I just thought everyone used them, like nationally and internationally because why the heck not they're great.
It's I think it's a question of how much experience people have in the kitchen. People who know more than basic level cooking often have them
I'm so used to seeing Grandma OK being spoken to in Korean that seeing someone speak to her in English is so surreal to me lol
It's funny that I got this video, because I was just thinking about making grilled cheese sandwiches for breakfast this weekend 🤤
OMG.. I was thinking of making grilled cheese for me dinner 😂😂
Breakfast? Have you tried having a grilled cheese with a crispy fried egg and some tomato inside? With extra sharp cheddar... That's my favorite 🤫
This was cute watching them try to communicate with each other. Good to see Grandma OK again. I was worried about her!
grandma is so precious
Grandma OK I missed you. So glad to see you well. I just had some grilled cheese about 2 hours ago. With no tomato soup. But it was still good. So it nice seeing you eat it. You were very cutely hungry 🤭 thanks zoey. And lady who showed how to make the American classic grilled cheese. Hugs and positive energy. 🤗🌈🌝🍀
It's videos like this I miss my grandmas both of the have passed on you guys are blessed to have her still around
GRANDMA!!! OMG I’ve missed her 💜💜💜
Happy mother’s day to Grandma Ok!!
Yay Grandma!!! SO happy to see her again. God Bless!!
As always, I want to adopt Grandma OK. She is the best! I bet she has all kinds of amazing stories and life experiences to share.
Oh My Goodness !!! So nice to see Grandma back. Let's get this thing going again !!!!!
Love seeing Grandma OK again. I hope you are well, Zoey 💛
Yay grandma ok is back!!! She makes me so happy! Love your channel!
That grandma is absolutely precious
Awwww I am so happy to see Grandma Ok again !! Its been a while and I just missed her beautiful presence !! Zoey please make sure Grandma Ok knows what to buy to make these at home herself... Please ;)
She knows now!
So glad to see Grandma. The girl was sweet and kind. I didn't really care for how she makes her grilled cheese but to each their own! Good episode. :)
Love learning about little things that are different in different places, like using the scissors in the kitchen!
People in the US use them, too. It tends to be among people who have more experience in the kitchen, I think
i use scissors it’s so much more convenient and i’m indian
Yeh guys it was a generalised comment, I didn’t say no one else in the entire world uses scissors in the kitchen except Koreans lol. I use them too and I’m British.
As an American I've never seen them in the kitchen, I've never even seen a cooking show where they use them so this was a new thing for me.
@@Queenfairypants ik just saying :)) i agree it’s interesting, different countries have subtle differences in the simplest of things! i was just saying as an indian we use scissors as well its pretty common here lol
In my country it's not called grilled cheese but 'toasted sandwich' and we can have it with just cheese or sometimes we put other ingredients. For me I like cheese, tomato and red onion and I butter it with garlic butter. 😊
I don’t know who taught that particular American how to make a grilled cheese sandwich, but this American girl definitely butters both breads and the skillet 😂. Then I sprinkle them with garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper and turmeric if I have it. Plus, I add multiple cheeses like pepper jack, yellow cheddar, and mozzarella. Her version is a sad bland interpretation of a grilled cheese.
Update: When she said she can’t cook, it explained why she made something a 7 yr. old can make plain and complicated.
How I make mine.... and served it for years...
room temperature butter is best, if its cold it will always tear bread and toast...
I make an herbed butter with sage or chives and garlic and only use Kerrys Gold Irish butter..
I absolutely butter the bread on both sides.... and I add a little olive oil to the pan to prevent burning.. you can also spread mayo on the bread and just add herbed butter to the pan...
which is also a great taste...
For the bread I use a thick sourdough.. for the cheese i use pepper jack, gruyere and cheddar
I toast it well and serve with a tomato bisque soup.... garnished with chopped chives and a dollop of sour cream... sometimes I will drizzle it hot honey
it was a staple for years in both my catering companies...
That looked yummy. My method is to use room temperature butter and spread directly onto the white bread. The cheeses I've used are American (for the meltiness), Cheddar (for the rich flavor - though less melty), and Pepper Jack (because yum). One paper-thin slice of onion and one thin slice of ripe tomato (salt and pepper to taste). One strip of bacon crispy (60-65 seconds in microwave). One slice of cheese on each side of the sandwich. Press down firmly to melt all the ingredients together, then cut diagonally and serve with a hot tomato soup and a cold beverage. This is a sandwich with a million variations. Everyone has their own recipe, which makes it a classic. There's a grilled cheese sandwich shop across the street from me!
You guys are back !!! Yes finally!!! Grandma ok, hope you’ve been doing well and staying healthy! Much love 💖
she's so cute😭😭
Grandma Always Warms My Heart,, I Would Be Glad/Honored To Cook For Her Anytime. 🙏 ❤
Overjoyed to see grandma again!
I missed Grandma Ok so, so, much! She's my stand-in internet "Grammy" relative!
Smoked Gouda and Colby Jack together... Da bomb.
Oh this was amazing!!! Thank you thank you
We use scissors in the kitchen in the US. Almost every knife block set has scissors (shears) included and you can get them at Target, Walmart, etc. I’d say that most households have knife block sets. Right? I probably have about 4 shears in my kitchen
I think it just depends on the family, I think younger people are more likely to use scissors when cooking than old. I really only use them for cutting green onions or bacon, the rest of the time I'll use a knife.
Grilled cheese with tomato soup is a good combo. But you can also cook grilled cheese with tomato slices inside too! Super yummy! I've never tried it with mozzarella cheese though. Only cheddar. I'll have to try it! 😊
Grilled cheese with tomato (onion too) is the bomb
It's good! Mozzarella does a great cheese pull. Aestheticly delicious
I can't have a grilled cheese without tomato. A little squirt of mustard is really good too, especially if you're using a sharp cheddar.
When I was 12 and in the hospital, I couldn't eat much and the hospital food was gross, so my mom would sneak me grilled cheese and tomato sandwiches from the cafe upstairs. Heavenly.
I have found my grilled cheese sandwich people.
I always preferred mine with a bowl of chili instead of tomatoe soup.
grilled cheese is so versatile, I like mine either with tomato soup or just add kimchi inside along with the cheese, both are delicious!
I'm glad to see Grandma OK. She is beautiful as always.
Missed you grandma, wonderful to see your beautiful smile
We do use scissors in the kitchen. In America when you buy knives sets they always come with scissors (shears) It's not uncommon.
Yeah, just must people dont use them even if they are provided.
Grandma ok!!!!!! I missed you 💖💖💖
I missed her so much!!!! 🥰 give her big hugs from us in America!
americans use kitchen scissors lol. she is unusual. its even a joke here that kids always get their haircut with the kitchen scissors
SO so happy to see Grandma Ok!!!
Watching Grandma OK enjoy food makes me think everything will be OK.
I grew up with grilled cheese and snow days. My mom would make it for myself and kids when we'd come in after playing in the snow. Then hot chocolate. :D
Oooh, as far as kitchen scissors...not true! I have 3 sets of kitchen shears! My grandma taught me, lol. I have plenty of knives, but I need my scissors.
Btw, thank you for u/l a video with grandma. I missed her. I'm sure I'm not alone. And I was worried about her.
Grandma OK want’s it in her tummy now. Forget waiting for it to get done. 🤣😂🤣😂
Chihuahua cheese has the best pull. Use that with avocado inside and mayo on the outside for a crunchy outside. Dipped in tomato soup is *chef's kiss*
Gurl....I love when Grandma is so focused on the good stuff she hear NOTHING! XD So funny!!
I love the editing!!
I made grilled cheese yesterday for like the second time in my life, it was so delicious! I never tried it with tomato soup though but i always wanted to!
The language barrier is killing me. 🤣🤣🤣
Grandma OK is the most lovelievable person on earth!!
Best return of the year❤️
OMG! So happy to see Grandma ok 🥰
Welcome back halmeoni! Thanks for cooking Savannah.
Love ya all.
Love watching grandma do her thing.
The best crossover imaginable, move over MCU, you got nothing on this wholesomeness 😆
Loving This!
Glad you're still uploading.
Please...More Grandma, More Grandma! I love when she tries new food with her granddaughter.
So glad you're back grandma ❤❤❤
It's been a while, glad to see y'all are ok! 💖💖
I would love to cook for Grandma OK.
I really missed seeing Grandma OK! It’s so good to see her again with her appetite intact. We love you, Grandma OK!
I'm an American and have been using scizzors in the kitchen for at least the past 40 years of my 63 year old life. Frankly I never meet an American who does not now use scizzors in the kitchen. The American in this video is the first to not use kitchen scizzors that I've noticed. Not only are the scizzors useful in opening some of the packaging that modern food comes in, but they are also great at snipping off the ends of fresh green beans and asparagus.
Grandma OK is AWESOME!!! She's so funny! I wonder if she knows?
I wish I had a grandma like this. So adorable.
I’m so thankful 🥹 I missed grandma OK so much I was watching old videos of her 😭 #ProtectHerAtAllCost
Grandma is back!!!! Missed you!!!!
2 super easy things I'd always make for myself growing up (and still do) were grilled cheese sandwiches and quesadillas. Both can be made quickly and simply, or made a bit fancier if you feel like it. Either way, they're both pure cheesy goodness. Definitely great comfort foods!
