December meme, day 4 ... two days late
Dec. 6th, 2014 02:32 pmDay 4: Favorite comfort food?
Grilled cheese, definitely. Basic (bread, plus a nice proper cheese -- cheddar, cheddar with mozzarella for stringiness, or pepper jack) is comfortiest, but added bacon never goes amiss.
(Other sorts of grilled cheese -- like the "I can hear my arteries whimpering" one my roommate made once that was cream cheese plus at least two other kinds of cheese plus bacon plus buffalo chicken, possibly plus jalapeƱos, that had to be put in the oven rather than done in a frypan because it was too stuffed to flip -- are definitely yummy but are not the same sort of comfort food.)
Second comfortiest is probably pizza, but it has to have a good crust. (And decent toppings, but those are easier to find.)
