Le Creuset Enameled Cast-Iron Panini Press Skillet Grill Set, Cherry



One of my favorite cooking items
I love this Le Creuset cast iron Panini Press and Grill/Griddle pan set. It is awesome, in fact I have two sets (one in the summer cottage). I probably don't prep it in the standard way. I first heat the griddle pan (we have gas) on one burner and heat the Lid/Press on another burner. When they are both hot, I spray the grill pan with Pam, and add whatever it is I'm going to grill. Then spray the Lid/Press and place it on top of the cooking food. If I am going to season the chicken or steaks, I cook one side first, then season the second side. This makes the BEST grilled chicken, great for salads, sandwiches or pre-cooking for a casserole dish. The chicken/beef is always tender - always. Just don't overcook!

My daughter has this same Le Creuset grill in two sizes and her favorite dish is red & green peppers, onions, mushrooms etc. These are wonderful on steaks or hamburgers.

I always let the Grill pan and Lid/Press cool, then add warm water and everything just...

Master Craftsmanship
I bought this after seeing my niece use this to make panini's. I was told you could use it on a glass top, but I since have seen conflicting reports regarding this. I am very careful when using it on my glass cooktop. I love it, though. It's really worth the money. Looks like a work of art (in my opinion). Can't get a gas stove where I live (it's easier to use with gas), but well worth the effort.

Love It!
I love this pan! I think calling it a "panini press" is limiting. I use it to cook sandwiches, but also vegetables, grilling ciabatta bread, veggie burgers, etc. It just seems to make everything more delicious. I use it all the time.
