If using oil, apply with a paper towel or pastry
brush. You may find it helpful to repeat this
process before each use of the Sandwich Grill.

TIPS AND HINTS FOR
USING YOUR CUISINART®
SANDWICH GRILL
Preheat Cuisinart? Sandwich Grill completely before
using. For quick-to-assemble sandwiches and pas
tries, preheat the Sandwich Grill while preparing the
food to be grilled.
Close the lid of the Sandwich Grill while preheating.
When preparing more than one batch of sandwiches,
keep lid closed to maintain even heat.
You may use a variety of breads with excellent results
In the Cuisinart® Sandwich Grill, from whole wheat to
cinnamon-raisin for sweeter sandwiches. Breads that
are a “standard” thickness (approximately inch) are
best.
For best results, we recommend that the bread be as
close as possible to the size of the sandwich plate
(5 X 41i inches). Breads may be trimmed prior to
cooking to fit as needed. Bread selections may be
hand sliced from whole loaves. (Use the scraps to
make fresh bread crumbs or In sweet or savory bread
puddings. Visit
Butter, margarine, or olive oil are recommended for
coating the outside of bread when making sand
wiches. “Light” versions of margarines are not rec
ommended, as they do not withstand heat (check
manufacturer's labels for cooking recommendations
for best results).
Have butter or margarine at room temperature
when spreading on bread, or melt and apply with a
pastry brush.
For best results, moist ingredients such as sliced
tomatoes or fruits, pickles, etc., should be blotted or
patted dry with a paper towel. Sauces, such as tomato
sauce or salsa, can be drained for a short time in a
strainer lined with a coffee filter to remove excess
liquid.
Use well-drained leftover cooked vegetables or
thawed, well-drained frozen vegetables as additions to
your sandwiches and omelet.
Firm-texture breads will yield a crispier sandwich than
breads with a softer texture.
Use a heatproof rubber spatula or wooden utensil
to lift sandwich/pastry/omelet from the Cuisinart'
Sandwich Grill. Avoid using metal utensils, which may
scratch the nonstick coating of the Sandwich Grill.
www.cuisinart.com for recipes).
For best results, allow hot sandwiches to rest for 2-3
minutes before cutting and serving. The fillings will be
very hot, and will run less if allowed to cool slightly.
Unplug the Sandwich Grill and allow unit to cool
completely with lid open before cleaning. When cool,
brush excess crumbs from Sandwich Grill with a soft
pastry brush, then gently wipe clean with a dampened
soft cloth such as one made of microfiber.
SUGGESTED SANDWICHES
Sandwich fillings can be as iimitless as your personal taste and imagination. You may create your own versions of
traditional favorites (childhood or diner comfort foods) or combine favorite ingredients to make your own classics.
To assemble sandwiches, lightly coat one side of each slice of bread (or the outside of a roll, pita loaf or English muf
fin) with butter, margarine or olive oil. Lay 2 slices of bread, coated side down, on work surface. Assemble sandwiches
in layers and top with remaining bread, coated side up. Place on preheated Sandwich Grill. Use firm pressure to close
lid; lock and cook. Green indicator light will go off and red light will come on (this may not happen immediately).
When green indicator light comes on again, sandwich is cooked.
Add 15-30 seconds additional cooking time If a toastier sandwich Is preferred. Remove sandwiches using a heatproof
plastic spatula. Let sandwiches rest for 2-3 minutes, then cut and sen/e.
