Notes
Fresh Ingredients: Choose fresh mushrooms and spinach for the best flavour and texture.
Cheese Selection: Pick a well-melting cheese, like mozzarella, cheddar, or a combination of these. This ensures a gooey, creamy texture in the sandwich.
Rest Before Cutting: After taking the sandwich out of the sandwich maker, let it rest for a minute to rest. This slightly settles the cheese, which makes it easier to cut without anything spilling out.
Salt: Be careful when adding salt because tomato ketchup and spreadable butter both contain salt.
