BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME
IMPORTANT:
Before using, operate the appliance without bread in order to burn off residues on the
Cooking Plates. To avoid burns, care should be taken when handling the Sandwich Maker. The sides
of the Cooking Plates are exposed and may be hot.
1. Carefully unpack Sandwich Maker and remove all packaging material.
2. Wipe all surfaces with a slightly damp, soft cloth. Never immerse in water.
3. To burn off residues on the Cooking Plates, it will be necessary to operate the unit for a few
minutes before initial use. Do not add bread or oil during this time.
4. Set the appliance on a dry, clean and flat countertop surface, where it can be easily plugged into
a 120V AC electrical outlet.
5. Open the Sandwich Maker. You will notice smoke and a slight odor while residues burn off.
6. Allow the Sandwich Maker to operate until smoke and odor dissipate; then unplug Sandwich
Maker and allow it to cool. Be careful, the Cooking Plates will be hot!
NOTE:
Some odor may still be detected during initial use; this is normal and should disappear after
one or two uses.
RECIPES
FLAVORED BUTTERS
Add interest to your toasted sandwiches by spreading the outside of the bread with flavored but-
ters. They can be used in preparing any of the following recipes, instead of plain butter. The follow-
ing recipes make a 4 oz. serving. To store, simply cover and refrigerate.
Garlic Butter
4 oz. butter or margarine, softened
1 clove garlic, crushed
salt and pepper
Place all ingredients in a bowl and stir until well combined.
Herb Butter
4 oz. butter or margarine, softened
1 teaspoon chopped parsley
1 teaspoon chopped chives
1/2 teaspoon fresh chopped rosemary (optional)
salt and pepper
Place all ingredients in a bowl and stir until well combined.
Cheese Butter
NOTE: Use this as a filling only! Adds a wonderful flavor to vegetables and gives a fresh new
taste to leftovers.
4 oz. butter or margarine, softened
2 oz. grated cheddar cheese
pinch of dried mustard
Place all ingredients in a bowl and stir until well combined.
HOT ‘N’ HERBY FILLINGS
Fresh green herbs, washed and chopped, by themselves or with other flavor combinations, make
delicious fillings for toasted sandwiches. Combine them with cottage cheese, farmers cheese, cream
cheese, mayonnaise or regular or flavored butters. Spread the filling onto the bread of your choice.
Remember: butter the outsides of the bread first before placing into preheated Sandwich Maker.
