USING your panini grill
Warning
:
During cooking
,
only touch the cool
-
touch handles
.
Note
:
On first use
,
you may notice smoke
.
This is normal due to
the initial heating of the internal components
.
Wipe the non
-
stick cooking plates with a damp cloth or sponge
.
When you first plug in the panini grill
,
the red light will illuminate
to let you know the unit is on
.
Once the green light illuminates
,
the
panini grill is ready for use
.
Note that during cooking
,
the green
indicator light will cycle on and off to maintain the correct
temperature
.
For a crispy
,
golden brown panini spread a thin layer of butter or
margarine on the outward
-
facing slices
.
Lay one buttered slice facing downwards on the lower cooking
plate
.
Add your filling and cover with the second slice of bread
with the buttered side facing the upper cooking plate
.
Note
:
Although there is room for two paninis
,
you can toast only one if
needed
.
For optimal results
,
the filling should be placed well within the
slices
.
Lower the upper cooking plate carefully onto the bread until
the panini grill is tightly clamped
.
After
2-3
minutes lift the cool
-
touch handle to check whether
the panini is sufficiently brown
.
The cooking time required to
obtain crisp
,
golden brown paninis depends on the type of
bread
,
fillings
,
and your personal taste
.
Once cooked
,
use a non
-
metallic utensil to remove the panini
.
Do not use sharp or abrasive kitchen utensils to cut your
panini while it is on the non
-
stick plates
.
After use
,
unplug the panini grill from the wall outlet
,
and allow
it to cool completely before cleaning or storing
.
