Prosciutto Taleggio And Radicchio Panini Food

PROSCIUTTO AND MOZZARELLA PANINI

Steps:

• Whisk the olive oil, vinegar, oregano, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl to blend.
• Arrange the slices of bread on a flat work surface and spread the vinaigrette on one side of each slice. Divide the mozzarella equally among 4 of the bread slices. Top with the prosciutto and roasted red peppers, then place the remaining 4 slices of bread on top, vinaigrette-side down, to form 4 sandwiches.
• Heat a grill pan over medium heat. Add the sandwiches and cook, pressing them occasionally with a large spatula or the bottom of a small heavy saucepan, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has melted, about 4 minutes per side.

PROSCIUTTO, TALEGGIO AND RADICCHIO PANINI

Steps:

• Heat a panini pan and press over medium heat. To assemble: Spread one slice of the bread with half the fig preserves and top with half of the slices of cheese and 2 to 3 slices of prosciutto. Spread half the radicchio over the prosciutto and top with the bread. Press down and brush the outside of the bread with the oil. Slice in half. Press in the panini pan until the bread is brown and the cheese is melted. Repeat with the other roll.

SAUTEED MUSHROOM, PROSCIUTTO, AND TALEGGIO PANINI

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add shallot, and cook until soft and translucent, about 2 minutes. Raise heat to medium-high; add mushrooms. Cook, stirring occasionally, until they are soft, golden brown, and most of the juices have evaporated, about 8 minutes. Add thyme or oregano, and season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat.
• Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Heat a griddle or large cast-iron skillet over medium-low heat. Slice bread in half horizontally. Layer each of the bottom halves with mushroom mixture, prosciutto, and cheese. Cover with remaining top bread halves.
• Brush outer sides of bread with oil, spreading it to the edges. Place two sandwiches in skillet or on griddle, and weight with a sandwich press or the bottom of another skillet. Cook until golden brown on first side, 3 to 4 minutes; turn, and continue cooking until other side is golden and the cheese has completely melted, 3 to 4 minutes more. Transfer to a baking sheet, and keep warm in the oven while making remaining sandwiches. Serve immediately.
