Cheese Selection
While many cheeses can be used, Queijo Prato (a mild, semi-hard cheese) is the most traditional choice. Mozzarella is also a popular alternative due to its excellent melting properties.
Bread Choice
French bread or 'pão de forma' (sandwich bread) are commonly used. Thinner slices will toast more evenly and allow the cheese to melt faster.
Toasting Technique
Using a sandwich press or 'torradeira' ensures even toasting and melts the cheese effectively. Alternatively, a skillet can be used with gentle pressure applied to the sandwich while cooking.
Butter/Margarine
Spreading a thin layer of butter or margarine on the outside of the bread before toasting helps to create a golden-brown and crispy crust.
