Step 4: Turn the Temperature Control Knob to 350°f. The Ready
light will illuminate as soon as the grill is preheated.
Step 5: Using the handle, open the grill lid until it rests at the top
position (at about 90 degrees). Insert the panini. The grill will accommodate
one or two panini. Pull the handle down firmly sandwiching the panini
between the grill grates. Grill for 2 to 5 minutes or until golden brown.
Tips:
• Use good quality bread, sliced somewhat thicker than you might slice it
for a cold sandwich.
• Brush bread slices (on sides that will touch the hot grill grates) with
olive oil.
• Use any combination of ingredients for the filling, but don't make the
sandwich overly complex. Three to four ingredients is ideal for letting
individual flavors shine through.
• Try to select one ingredient that will help bind the sandwich together.
Cheese is a good choice because as it melts, it gets sticky. Garlic
mayonnaise, olive tapenade, or even barbecue sauce can achieve a
similar effect.
• Do not overstuff the panini or the exterior will cook before the interior has
a chance to do so.
• Preheat your removable plate grill at 350°F. The Ready light will
illuminate when the grill is preheated and ready for operation. Sprinkle a
few drops of water on the surface of the grill plates. If the water sputters
and dances, it is hot enough to begin grilling your sandwich.
• Place the sandwich in the removable plate grill and close the lid. Grill for
2 to 5 minutes or until golden brown.
Great panini combinations:
• Grilled chicken, gruyere, tomato and basil
• Grilled eggplant, fresh mozzarella and olive tapenade
• Feta cheese, spinach, pine nuts and roasted garlic
• Smoked salmon, vegetable cream cheese and fresh dill
• Sliced beef, cheddar cheese, corn relish and barbecue sauce
