I Made Gordon Ramsay's 'Ultimate' Grilled Cheese Sandwich

The sandwich calls for two types of cheese and kimchi.

I purchased the ingredients for $26.45 from my local grocery store, Foodtown. Victoria Montalti/Insider

Ramsay's recipe calls for Romano cheese with Pepperberry, Asiago cheese, thick slices of country bread, and kimchi. Some standard butter, olive oil, and salt are also in the mix. I went to my local grocery store, Foodtown, to see if I could find the slightly upscale ingredients.

I had to purchase a few alternatives. Since Foodtown only had soft, pre-sliced country bread, I opted for the next best thing: a freshly baked loaf of ciabatta bread that looked the most similar to the shape and hard crust of Ramsay's. 

While I think a cheese shop would've had the exact blocks of Romano and Asiago cheese that Ramsay used in his tutorial, I picked up pre-packaged ones. The recipe suggests that if you can't find Romano with Pepperberry, to add pink peppercorns instead. I found a peppercorn medley grinder that included the pink variety.

The ingredients came to $26.45. This was definitely going to be a "fancy" grilled cheese.
