Nothing beats a classic three-cheese toastie—it’s one of the world’s greatest sandwiches. Oozing with a melange of gooey cheese, it’s usually a combo of hard and soft cheeses like cheddar, gouda, and mozzarella.
Though there are plenty of riffs on the triple cheese idea, we’ve just heard about a cheese toastie to rule all cheese toasties. In honour of National Cheese Day this Friday 4 June, a bunch of Aussie restaurants have banded together to serve the cheesiest toastie ever: an actual 40-cheese toastie.
What cheeses are involved in the mix you ask? Here is the full list of 40:
- Mozz Buffalo Sori
- Fetta Lemnos
- Haloumi Floridia
- Mozz Scamorza Bianca
- Egmont Shred Mainland
- Mozz Scamorza Smoked
- Tasty Shred Fred Walker
- Provolone Mild Brazzal
- Cheddar Black Jack
- Pecorino Romano Zanet
- Ashgrove Tassie Trio
- Colby
- Vega wine-infused cheese
- Gouda cumin wedge
- Zanetti Pecorino Romano
- Parmigiano Reggiano
- Cheddar Smoked
- Saganaki
- Havarti
- Blue Stilton
- Asiago D.O.P
- Camembert
- Natural Swiss cheese
- Sartori balsamic
- Sartori espresso
- Pecorino Romano
- Truffelino
- Red Leicester
- Rubicon Lancashire
- Double Gloucester
- Gourmet Mozzarella
- Jarlsberg
- Fiordimaso
- Pickled Onion cheddar
- Gouda nutty and robust
- Comté
- Emmental
- Manchego
- Roncal
- Burrata
This insane creation will be available from this Friday via Deliveroo for two weeks from six cafes in NSW, including Butter Parramatta and Chatswood, South Dowling Sandwiches, Custom Cafe, Paper Plane Cafe, and De’assis Cafe.
The sando will set you back a cruisey $12, but the best part is that $5 from each toastie will go direct to Eat Up, a sandwich-based charity that aims to support hungry children.
“We have some of the biggest cheese fans here at Butter," says Butter executive chef, Julian Cincotta. "So when we were tasked with the challenge of creating a '40-Cheese Toastie', and all to help our mates over at Eat Up, we knew we had to step up to the grater! The end result… well you’re just going to have to get in and order before they all run out!!”
