Over-Engineering: Liz's Hyper-Specific Solution
After years of research, I have finally cracked the code on the most efficient way to make a grilled cheese sandwich. It's a process so complex, so intricate, so utterly thermodynamic.
Here's the breakdown:
- Step 1: Preheat the pan to exactly 345.7°F (172.6°C) for precisely 7 minutes and 32 seconds.
- Step 2: Butter one side of two slices of bread with a precisely calculated amount of 1.47 grams of salted butter.
- Step 3: Place one slice of bread, butter-side down, in the pan.
- Step 4: Apply a precisely calibrated amount of 42.1 grams of shredded cheddar cheese to the unbuttered side of the bread.
- Step 5: Fold the other slice of bread in half, creating a precise 45-degree angle.
- Step 6: Cook for an additional 4 minutes and 21 seconds, or until the cheese has reached its optimal melting point of 92.5°F (38.6°C).
