Ham and Cheese Panini

Panini, meaning ‘little breads’ in Italian, have been a staple of Italian cafes for generations, but the pressed, grilled sandwich format became a major American trend in the 1990s and 2000s as panini presses became popular kitchen appliances. Ham and cheese remains one of the most classic and beloved combinations.

Pressed, crispy, and filled with melty cheese

Ham and Swiss cheese are pressed between crusty bread with a swipe of Dijon mustard, grilled until crispy and the cheese melts.
