fillings) and personal preference. If you’re unsure,
its best to check
and let cook more if necessary.

Use a non-metallic utensil to retrieve the sandwich (e.g. a wooden
or silicone spatula). Do not use sharp utensils such as knives or forks
to grab your toasted sandwich.

Once you’re done toasting up your sandwiches, be sure to unplug
the unit and let it cool completely before cleaning.
Making your sandwich exceptional:
•
Bread matters. Using sandwich or artisanal bread will work best
in this sandwich maker. Feel free to mix it up with focaccia,
sourdough, or whole-wheat when making grilled sandwiches,
just remember that the higher the sugar content (i.e. raisin
breads, sweet breads, etc.), the faster the browning.
•
Not all cheeses are equal. First, think of optimizing meltiness for
the most satisfying stretch factor
—
cheeses like cheddar,
American, provolone, mozzarella are all examples of what will
help your grilled sandwich shine.
•
Don’t be afraid to experiment with different fillings or methods
when making sandwiches. A grilled PB&J may be just what
satisfies your craving, but you can switch it up with different nut
butters and different jelly flavors.
•
Spread all the way. Whether its mayo, jelly, or an interesting
combination of the two, its best to create a light, even spread
to the edges of the bread for the best results.
•
Consider the balance, regarding
both the bread you’re using
and how the cheese and other fillings will counterbalance in
flavor. You can opt for a sharper cheddar and a milder bread
or use a milder cheese for more flavorful breads like sourdough.
•
Try to not add too many wet ingredients like tomato or fresh fruit
as they may produce a soggy sandwich. If you want to use
moist fillings, try opting for a denser bread that won’t absorb a
s
much liquid.
•
When grilling sandwiches with jelly and/or cheeses, be careful
as you bite down as the fillings may remain hot longer than the
bread.
•
Since the plates are nonstick, you do not need to use butter or
oil on the outside of the plates. A light spread of mayo, oil, or
butter will help produce a golden-brown grilled sandwich.
