Cut four generous slices of sourdough bread and spread some salted butter on both sides.
Place a skillet over medium-high heat and toast bread on both sides until golden.
While the bread toasts, mix half a cup of crumbled feta cheese with half a cup of anthotyro and one-third cup of grated kefalotyri.
Heat the oven to 390°F / 200°C
Remove toasted bread from the skillet. Spread half of the mixture over one slice, Top with the other, press it down a little, and wrap tightly in parchment paper. Place it in the preheated oven and bake for fifteen to twenty minutes.
Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, add the honey and the leaves from one or two sprigs of fresh thyme. Warm it up in low heat and let it infuse with the herbs while waiting for your grilled cheese to be ready.
Remove the parcel from the oven, discard the parchment paper and place grilled cheese sandwiches on a cutting board. Cut in half and serve on plates with a drizzle of thyme honey on top and more thyme leaves.
Enjoy!

Feta cheese. Each feta has different salt content. If your prepackaged feta is too salty, immerse it in a bowl of fresh water for a day, and the salt will be significantly reduced.
Anthotyros cheese. A good substitute is whole milk ricotta cheese.
Kefalotyri cheese. Use grated pecorino romano or parmesan cheese instead.
