We know the Kookery usually leans sweet. The world of desserts simply tends to be more kookily innovative. Sometimes, though, even in the middle of a hot summer, something a little warm, wacky, and savory hits the Internet--and the spot.
TasteSpotting's Kimchi Ramen Grilled Cheese Sandwich combines the proud traditions of grilled cheesery and weird, shrink-wrapped Japanese yakisoba sandwiches into one compressed noodle kooktastrophe. And, come to think of it, the fizzy, bitter spice of kimchi is just the thing to lift a stick-to-your-ribs grilled cheese into summer mode. Bonus: For the cold pizza lovers out there, we think this sandwich would taste pretty amazing after a few hours hanging out in the fridge.

BA Test Kitchen Says: Hey, this is "The Year of Asian Hipster Cuisine," after all. As long as you don't call it fusion, you can toss some kimchi ramen into pretty much anything.
