Whether you're making a pressed panini sandwich, an oven-baked casserole, or even a cheeseburger, the key to all these recipes is having a good melting cheese. But not all cheeses are made for melting! The biggest factors to consider are moisture content, fat, age, and acidity. The best cheeses for melting are those with "more moisture and lower melting points," according to the folks at Cabot Creamery, a Vermont-based cheese company. And though most cheese will get somewhat melty when heated, if you're looking for that optimal molten quality, you'll want to choose a cheese that's high in both fat and moisture. On the other hand, cheeses with high acidity like feta or aged cheeses like parmesan aren't always the best for melting.
