Found this in a magazine article about the Spanish cheese, Manchego and am posting for ZWT. I loved this new cheese, BF wasn't so sure but he isn't the cheese freak that I am. I don't have a panini press so I use my cast iron grill pan which works great.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the flavor of your panini. Choose a good quality ham, manchego cheese, and bread. Use fresh ingredients whenever possible.
  • Don't overcrowd the panini. When assembling your panini, be sure not to overcrowd it. Too many ingredients will make it difficult to grill and the panini will be less enjoyable to eat.
  • Grill the panini until golden brown. When grilling your panini, cook it until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly. This will ensure that the panini is cooked through and has a delicious crispy exterior.
  • Serve the panini with a dipping sauce. A dipping sauce can add extra flavor and richness to your panini. Try serving it with a simple olive oil and balsamic vinegar dipping sauce or a more complex sauce such as a creamy pesto sauce.
