Presto Panini! Panino (the singular of "panini") means "small bread" in Italian and is generally eaten as a snack in Italy. Let our Panini Pointers help you prepare the perfect panini every time.

Panini Pointers
Follow these tips and ideas for great panini!
Layer the cheese so it's directly against the top and bottom bread slices. This places it closest to the heat source for maximum melting.
Once the sandwich is assembled, press it down with your palm before placing it on the hot grill or skillet so it doesn't slide apart.
If you don't have an electric panini or sandwich grill, follow the skillet cooking directions in the recipes. Or, use a ridged grill pan and place a heavy skillet on top of the sandwich to press it down as it cooks.
Panini are best when served hot off the grill. Use a large serrated knife to easily cut them in half.
Get creative with panini fillings. Design your own by using leftover slices of cooked meats, cheeses and vegetables you have on hand.
For best results, do not overstuff the bread slices or the extra filling will be forced out during pressing.
Host a panini party! Set out a variety of cooked meats, cheeses, vegetables (raw and roasted), spreads and Nature's Own or Cobblestone Mill Breads. Let guests assemble and grill their own panini.
Cut panini into quarters and serve as mini sandwich appetizers or snacks.
