August 14: Flatten Your Food this National Panini Month!
There is nothing like a grilled sandwich! Panini sandwiches are popular as quick and easy dinner ideas. The first U.S. reference to Panini dates to 1956 but Milanese bars served grilled sandwiches as early as the 16th century.
Panini recipes offer many options in bread, meats, vegetables, and cheese. Some recipes are very plain while others present unique food styling with bread of different textures and multi-colored vegetables. Try your Panini with ciabatta or rosemary bread. Host a Panini party with a sandwich building table so your guests can choose their fillings before giving their creation a squish. If anyone devises a winning combination-start a recipe exchange! This unique and flexible item offers many options for adventurous and picky eaters alike. Check out this work by Dishfolio food photographers and bloggers, and try new sandwich combinations. Or get extra creative and invent your own today!
