Hi eezablade, I also love burnt cheese, the crispier the better. I have just done shephards pie and all the cheese on top was crunchy, my favourite meal that is!
Much as I like the burnt parts the best I have to tell you that apparently the burnt parts of food such as cheese and also onions (another of my burnt favorites) contain something called acrylamides which are said to be carcinogens when tested on animals. You know, it seems to be that there is nothing left worth eating that is not bad for you in some way!!
