Making Paninis - Tips from Kraft Foods
- Skip the mess and use a cutting board as
your work surface for panini creations. Any spilled ingredients easily
can be thrown away, and you can cut and serve quickly after heating.
- Italian bread and sourdough bread are
both great options for paninis. These varieties are hearty enough to
hold ingredients together while heating.
- Roasted tomatoes are a classic panini
ingredient. If you don't have the jar variety, make your own by roasting
tomatoes in the oven and adding a little balsamic dressing. Faster than
you can say "panini", you've got a classic Italian sandwich!
- Store olive oil in a plastic squirt
bottle to quickly squirt a small amount on sandwiches before placing
them in your panini maker.
- Alternating layers of meats, cheeses and
other ingredients work best in keeping heated sandwiches intact and easy
to eat. To keep too much cheese from melting out of the sandwich, slice
cheese into strips to layer between meats and veggies.
