The main reason for posting this recipe is that I want to share this cooking method for Panini with you. This easy trick will give you a perfect Panini as an end result and you don’t have to have a special grill…..just a brick wrapped in aluminum foil!!! Use this or your own favorite Panini recipe, mix and match ingredients or use whatever you have at hand.

SERVES 1 -2 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1
    You will also need: 1 brick wrapped in aluminum foil.
  2. 2
    Mix together the mayonnaise, mustard and herbs.
  3. 3
    Spread on one side of the bread slices.
  4. 4
    Build your sandwich in this order: Gruyere, turkey, tomato, salami and end with the mozzarella.
  5. 5
    Heat one tablespoon of oil, medium heat, in a frying pan that is large enough to hold the bread, add the bread to the pan and place the brick on top.
  6. 6
    Fry for 3 to 5 minutes, make sure the heat is not too high, you don’t want to burn the bread.
  7. 7
    Remove the brick and bread from the pan, and add the other tablespoon of oil.
  8. 8
    Return the bread to the pan to brown the other side, place the brick on top again and continue to fry until browned to your liking.

I picked this recipe for Pick A Chef Spring 2009. I have a panini grill so I didn't try the brick method. Otherwise I followed the recipe exactly. Be sure to have napkins on hand - this sandwich definitely has the ooze factor - the cheese was meltyand gooey and the tomatoes were juicy. Next time, I will probably leave off the gruyere - I thought it had just a little too much gooey cheese, although that's a personal taste. Thanks for posting a very good sandwich, Pets!
