Panini Grill Sandwich

One new hot item that is making a lot of commotion in the kitchen is the panini grill that makes great panini grill sandwiches. The grill is similar to the ones you use to make a waffle but the panini grill creates thin-toasted sandwiches that have a distinctive crispy flavor.

Italians usually prefer their panini grill sandwich with two slices of bread, a slice of prosciutto, thin slices of mozzarella and tomato, and fresh basil leaves. Then they brush the sandwich with olive oil and put it on a hinged grill. Since the cover of the panini grill is heavy, it presses the panino while creating a crispy sandwich.

You can make your own panini sandwich with a few basic tips and ideas.

If you want a panini for a light breakfast, try using a sweet bread and add cinnamon, honey, and butter. You can also use cream cheese and strawberry jam for a great panini treat. Don’t be afraid to use chicken and eggs in your panino for extra protein and nutrients to start your day.

For those vegetarian who wants to try panini, add thin slices of mozzarella and tomatoes with basil to ciabatta bread. Spread some olive oil and vinegar over the ingrediens. You can also try lightly grilling some veggies of your preference such as red pepper, onions, and mushrooms and adding them to your panino. Spread the outside with olive oil before grilling for extra flavor and crispiness.
