PANINI HINTS FOR BEST RESULTS
It is usual to prepare Panini (s) from a hearty loaf of bread. However, Panini
(s) made from the store, sliced breads or rolls can be delicious and simple to
make. Experiments witha varietyof breads, tortillas, flatbreads, even pitas.
For health-conscious cooks, the non-stick coating of grill plates assures a
crisp and delicious toasting without the use ofoil or butter. The raised ridges
and tilted bottom plate, allow grease and other liquids to drip off into the drip
trayand away from your food.
With the Panini Grill's non-stick grill plates, it is not necessary to use butter
oroil the outside of the bread. However, spreading a small amount of butter
or olive oil is recommended to encourage evenbrowning of the bread.
NOTE: Do not use non-stick sprays as they can cause build-up on the grill
plates. Use olive oilinstead.
WARNING: Do not use non-fat spreads. They may burn and damage the
non-stick grill plates.
Always preheat the Panini Grillbefore each use.
Have all the ingredients at hand before preparing the panini.
When using soft or liquid fillings, use thicker slices of breads. Try removing
the inside of the bread to create a cup form in which filing can be added.
Most fresh fruits release juice when heated. If a recipe calls for canned fruit,
drainand dry the fruit with a clean paper towel.
Avoid using processed cheeses, as they tend to melt under high
temperatures.

9
A teaspoon of sugar sprinkled on the buttered side make the grilled panini
more crispier and adds flavor when using sweet fillings.
Whole grain and sweet breads will grill faster than white breads and should
be in the grill for less time.
After you have removed the finished panini, close the top grillplate to retain
heat while assembling of more sandwiches.
To a void food contamination, wear oven mitts and use a soft absorbent
paper towel to wipe the grillplates, and clean aftereach use.
