Before Using:

Cooking Features:

Remove all packaging materials and any

promotional labels or stickers from your grill.
Be sure all parts (listed under Features) of your new

appliance have been included before discarding

any packaging materials. you may want to keep the

box and packing materials for use at a later date.
Before using your VillaWare® Panini Grill for the

first time, remove any dust from shipping by wiping

the base, cover and controls with a damp cloth.

Thoroughly clean cooking plates, and drip tray.

Contact Grill

Use the VillaWare Panini Grill as a contact grill to

cook burgers, boneless pieces of meat and thin cuts

of meat and vegetables.
The Contact Grill function works best when you want

to cook something in a short amount of time or

when you are looking for a healthy method of grilling.

When cooking on the contact grill, food will cook

quickly because you are grilling both sides of the food

item at the same time.

Rest the cover evenly on top of the food until it

has reached the desired cooked temperature. The

Panini Grill was designed with a unique handle and

hinge that allows the cover to adjust to the

thickness of the food – easily grill anything from a

thinly-sliced potato to a thick sirloin steak with

even results. The ribs on the grill plates combined

with the grease spout at the center of the plate

allow the grease to drip from the meat and drain

off the plates.

Note:

When cooking more than one food item at a

time, it is important that the thickness of food items is

consistent so the cover will close evenly on the food.

Panini Press:

Use the VillaWare® Panini Grill as a Panini Press

to grill sandwiches, breads and quesadillas.
The word “Panini” is an Italian term for grilled

sandwich. Panini can include any combination of

ingredients such as vegetables, meat and cheese

layered between two pieces of fresh baked bread.

The sandwich is then pressed between two grill or

griddle plates to toast the bread and warm the

sandwich. We recommend using fresh baked bread

to produce the best tasting Panini.
The Panini Grill was designed with a unique handle

and hinge that allows the cover to adjust to the

thickness of the sandwich you are preparing, and

to rest there evenly. Light pressure can be applied

to the handle to press and heat the sandwich to

your liking.

Note:

When cooking more than one Panini, it

is important that the thickness of each sandwich

is consistent so the cover will close evenly on

the Panini.

open Grill:

Use the VillaWare® Panini Grill as an Open Grill to

cook burgers, steak, poultry (we do not recommend

cooking bone-in chicken, since it does not cook

evenly on an open grill), fish and vegetables.
“Open Grill” refers to using the Panini Grill with the

cover laying flat, creating a double, flat cooking

surface. In this position, the foods you are grilling will

have to be turned over for cooking.
