"When you are on the road, it can be exhausting to need to figure out your meals all the time. Depending on where you are staying, the options can be pretty slim, and no matter what's on offer, it is going to cost you more than a home-cooked meal. Fortunately, if you get a bit creative, there are actually quite a few meals that you can cook in a hotel room with just the meager supplies on hand."
"It makes perfect sense that you could use a clothing iron to make a grilled cheese, as it is really not so different from a hot griddle or skillet, just one that you can hold in your hand. Although, there is a trick to doing it right. The real genius of this grilled cheese sandwich hack comes from utilizing not just the iron but also a layer of aluminum foil."
Travelers can cook simple meals in hotel rooms using minimal supplies. A grilled cheese sandwich can be fried using a clothes iron as a handheld griddle. Covering the ironing board with a layer of aluminum foil prevents butter or mayonnaise from making a mess and protects the room. Butter or mayonnaise on the bread creates crispness and richness, but direct contact with the ironing board risks staining. The iron method follows the same basic steps as stovetop grilling: assemble cheese between bread, apply oil or spread, and brown both sides with heat. Preheat the iron to maximum before cooking.
