Ingredients
- - 8 slices of sourdough loaf bread
- - Gippsland Jersey Butter, room temperature
- - 200G MARCEL PETITE COMTÉ
- - 200G SWISS GRUYERE
- - 2 SHALLOTS, FINELY DICED
- - 100ML WHITE WINE

Steps
- Grate both cheeses with a box grater and mix them in a bowl with the shallots and garlic
- Butter one side of each slice of bread and place four slices on your bench, buttered side down.
- Distribute the cheese mixture over the four slices, then place the remaining four slices on top, buttered side up.
- Heat your sandwich press and use baking paper on both sides to ensure it won't burn. Cook for 5 minutes or until the cheese has melted through and the bread has turned golden brown. Once finished, remove and brush the tops lightly with wine. Finish with a sprinkling of sea salt.
