If you think Panini is just another grilled sandwich, try it once and you will realize the difference. A Panini is a special type of Italian grilled sandwich, which is never made with regular sliced bread.
Although traditionally breads like baguette, ciabatta or michetta are used, you can make do with hot dog rolls if you are in no mood to go hunting for these exotic breads.
The bread is brushed with butter, layered with cheese and packed with different combinations of cheeses, veggies and other ingredients before being grilled.
The Mushroom, Cheese and Spring Onions Panini is a winning version, which combines the unique texture of mushroom and the crunch of spring onions with the gooeyness of molten cheese. This recipe is sure to be loved by all, provided you serve it immediately after grilling.
