It was unexpectedly delicious! I mean I was sure that it will be good but not sooo good!🤤🤤 Quite difficult to flip it on the pan so that the sandwich stay in one piece but really worth the effort!
This was a huge hit and so fast and easy to put together! Definitely repeating this one!
Surprisingly very yummy! I was scared cause of the weird combination of ingredients. And also I usually don't like pears. But in this constellation it is coming together nicely! 😍
Truly delicious, perfect forma quick lunch!
This is top tier sandwich filling 🤤 I was a bit dubious about adding pear, but it works so well! It feels like a proper treat of a sandwich too, but super easy to put together. I've had this for so many breakfasts in a row, that I have ran out of kimchi 😂
Yet another combination of ingredients I would have never thought of that was absolutely delicious! A new staple in our house 🙂
Wow I'm blown away by how good this. I'll be eating this alot. My new favorite sandwich.
Amazing❤️
Another winner! I had a bad experience with kimchi in college so I only made this for my husband. He loved it so much he convinced me to try and wow. I never thought I’d say it, but I might actually like kimchi. We opted for the miso paste in the butter and subbed apple for pear and it was fantastic. My husband literally licked his plate, which I’ve never seen him do before, alarming, but cute and very easy to interpret…
I really liked how easy this was to make, I had store bought kimchi. I liked the sandwich, but I feel like it just wasn't for me or hubs. Maybe it was the saltines of the miso butter. We admittedly don't do a ton of salt in every day cooking so I think that was the biggest flavor obstacle for us. I liked the spiciness of the kimchi. Kiddo didn't love but they're 6 lol and the spice was probably a bit much
This is an amazing quick recipe that is so so tasty! I made it on homemade sourdough and it was heavenly
"This is the best grilled cheese I've ever had" -- the husband
...enough said.
My family and I loved how the flavors all combined and created a delicious sandwich.
Best flavour combo! I would call it my favourite sandwich if it weren't that hard to flip it over without breaking apart. I would highly appreciate some tips on that🙃
This was just fabulous! 💕
LOVED this. Improvised with some shredded fresh apple but I’ll try pear as soon as I can. This one will be on repeat!
Delicious! Tip *cook the kimchi and cheese in a little vegan butter together in a frying pan before putting on the sandwich. I added a fried egg cause I eat eggs. Perfect! Loved the miso/butter idea.
So good 😊
I made it several times both with pear and crunchy apple, it works amazingly. Lovely recipe and perfect to satisfy hankering for grilled cheese
Uncommon but enjoyable flavor mix, easy for the evening, careful with the heat.
Only slightly OBSESSED with this flavour combination 🤭 Love how the sweetness of the pear combines with the tangy-ness of the kimchi! Yummmm 😋
It was a fun and fast warm lunch to have! Next time, I'll try medium heat as the bread burnt in two minutes with the miso butter on the outside. Still very tasty! We flipped the sandwiches with a plate and then slid them back onto the pan with a spatula. And don't skip adding pear/apple to it. So good!
Just made this along with some miso soup - perfect dinner after coming home on a snowy day! Quick, warm, delightful!
This is so so good. Pear is a must! Adds sweetness and crispiness to the sandwich. Thank you for the great recipe 👍🏻
I wouldn't have thought of adding pear, but it tastes great! Love this recipe!
My first recipe since signing up for the app! 😌
I really enjoyed this sandwich! 😋The pear added a very nice subtle sweetness that was very welcome and complementary with the store-bought spicy kimchi I used. I sliced the pears too thin so I think thicker slices would have been better to add some textural variety to the sandwich. Also known as follow the pictured instructions next time, Emil. 🤦🏽♂️ The griddled bread definitely contributed beautiful crunch though.
Anyway, I highly recommend this sandwich! Keep the pears sliced as shown in the app, use a robust, thick bread and toast that bad boy on the pan nice and crispy and add extra spice if you enjoy heat! You’ll be in for a treat.
Super yummy! The first time I made this, it burned and was a nightmare. The second time I put the miso butter on the inside (because the flavor is amazing), lowered the heat considerably, and sprayed olive oil on the outside. It is still a nightmare to flip, but worth all the bits falling out. Next time will do the halves separately in the pan. If you have a panini maker or grill, this would be easier. If not embrace the mess and enjoy!
Absolutely delicious! Switched the pear for apple and it made for a yummy crunch
Yum!!! Super yummy and so easy. I happened to have all the ingredients on hand and glad I gave it a try.
This was incredible! Amazing combination of flavors and I will definitely have this on my rotation going forward.
This is beyond amazing! Kimchi and pear - what an awesome combination!
So yummy 😋
We adjusted this and used grated carrot lightly tossed in a bit of honey in place of the pears (we didn’t have pears) and that worked really well too to still get that sweetness and crunch into the sandwich.
The Wohle Family Loved it… even my little picky eater
I make a version of this at home, adding the pear is next level. Thank you for your amazing recipes I am a huge fan from New Zealand
Amazing!!
Easy and delicious, the adventurous combination of flavours works great. This will be my go-to sandwich!
OMG! This is my favorite sandwich ever. How come I didn’t try it before! This is going to be my sandwich to go this summer ☀️
Admittedly, I wasn’t so sure how this was gonna taste. I mean, kimchi, cheese and pears are a wild combo.
But it really really is delicious! The different tastes contrast each other perfectly. Will definitely make that again!
I’ve also tried it with an apple - just as delicious. :)
This was so delicious! I had to swap pear for apple based on what I had at home, and it tasted great + gave the sandwich a freshness + crunch! Will def be trying this again 🍏
A new way to enjoy kimchi - it was delicious! Super simple and quick recipe when you do not have much time to cook.
Delicious! The pear was a great addition, though I couldn’t really taste the miso
Love it! Easy and yummy!
This was really unique and yummy. I learned the hard way that it’s important to read the ingredients of the Kimchi as many have fish or shrimp in them. So, I ended up making it with sauerkraut and some sriracha instead. Still really good that way. Also discovered that pear slices dipped in the leftover miso butter is delicious!!
