BREAD
Most types of bread can be used; white, whole
wheat, cracked wheat, whole grain, raisin
bread and so on. The Panini Press is ideal
for toasting focaccia, pita bread, baguettes
as well as rolls. Raisin bread, brioche or
other sweet breads which contain a high
sugar content will tend to brown quicker.
FILLINGS
Use canned or pre-cooked fruit as fresh fruit
may give off excessive juices when heated.
Be careful when biting into sandwiches
containing fillings such as cheese and
tomato or jam as they retain heat and can
burn if eaten too quickly.
TOASTING BREAD
The unique ribbed plate design makes the
Panini Press ideal for toasting plain breads,
and pita bread, without any fillings or spreads.
Try toasting pita bread with jams for a great
alternative to standard breads at breakfast.
REHEATING
If the sandwich is not being eaten immediately,
place it on a paper napkin to absorb
condensation. To keep for longer, place on a
rack in an oven-proof dish to keep warm in a
low oven, about 200˚F (100˚C). The sandwich
will keep hot for up to 20 minutes this way,
but will then begin to dry out.
FAT FREE SNACKS
Due to the non-stick ribbed plate design, it is
not necessary to use any butter or margarine
on the outside of your toasted snacks.
HINTS FOR BEST RESULTS
Your Panini Press features an Adjustable
Toast Height Control feature which allows
you to fix the top plate to a range of positions
above the bottom plate. This allows your
Panini Press to be used as an open toaster
ideal for toasting open sandwich style
‘melts’. It can also be used for toasting
sandwiches and snacks where you don’t
need to apply the weight of the top plate.
1. Allow the Panini Press to preheat until
the green ‘ready’ light illuminates.
2. Place sandwich to be melted on
bottom plate.
3. Move the Toast Height Control lever on
the right hand side of the Panini Press to
the desired height (see Fig 2).
4. Slowly lower the top plate until it rests on
the height control clip.
5. The top plate will radiate the desired heat
to melt ingredients such as cheese.
6. Toasting ‘melts’ should take
approximately 4-5 minutes. However
exact toasting time will be a matter of
taste. It will also depend on the height of
the top plate.
