PREMIÈRE MOISSON
Première Moisson Country-Style Panini Bread
What it is
This is a rustic, country-style bread specifically shaped for making paninis. It has a hearty texture and a slightly chewy crust, designed to hold up well when pressed and grilled. The bread is baked to a golden brown, offering a satisfying bite that complements a variety of fillings. Its substantial structure makes it ideal for sandwiches that require a robust bread base.
How people cook with it
This bread is perfect for creating delicious hot sandwiches. It grills beautifully, creating a warm and satisfying meal.
- Grilled cheese sandwiches
- Pressed Italian subs
- Breakfast panini melts
- Hot turkey and swiss
To prepare a panini, slice the bread horizontally. Layer your desired fillings, such as meats, cheeses, vegetables, and spreads, onto the bottom half. Place the top half of the bread over the fillings. You can then grill the assembled sandwich in a panini press until the bread is golden brown and toasted, and the cheese is melted. Alternatively, use a skillet with a weight on top to achieve a similar pressed effect. Ensure the heat is moderate to allow the inside to warm through without burning the exterior.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to a standard baguette or ciabatta, this bread is typically denser and has a more uniform shape, making it easier to press evenly. Its crust is often slightly softer than a traditional baguette, which prevents it from becoming too hard when grilled, while still providing a pleasant chewiness.
Who it is for
Home cooks and sandwich enthusiasts looking for a bread that excels in hot pressed sandwiches will appreciate this product.
How to keep the rest
To keep the remaining bread fresh, store it in a cool, dry place, ideally in a bread box or a loosely tied plastic bag. Avoid refrigerating, as this can dry out the bread. For longer storage, you can freeze the bread, wrapped tightly in plastic wrap and then in a freezer bag, for up to three months.
