panini sandwiches + leftovers

Sunday, November 6, 2011

left-o-ver - 1.  Usually, leftover.  food remaining at the end of the meal, especially when saved for a later use.  2.  anything left or remaining from a larger amount; remainder.

We love leftovers and generally make things that will eventually be used again in another dish.  One way we use leftovers is for panini sandwiches.  Almost anything goes…

It started with leftover biga or bread starter.  Since that is a 24 hour process I did not want it to go to waste…so what else is a girl to do?  Make more bread of course.  
We had a little very thinly sliced prosciutto, one apple and some cheddar.
A drizzle of olive oil on the top slice and thinly sliced apples on top of the prosciutto and cheese.
I’m not one to like a lot of kitchen gadgets, but a panini press is one thing I could not live without.  Thanks to my dear friend Eileen who was responsible for getting me a job at William Sonoma it is just one of the many items I purchased while working there.  The one I have is made by Breville and it’s worth every penny.
