National Panini Month

August is National Panini Month in the United States.

The name panini refers to a type of toasted sandwich that originated in Italy, which in the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom is used to refer to a specific type of pressed and toasted sandwich. The name itself maens "small bread, bread roll."

This type of sandwich is made using bread such as baguette, ciabatta and michetta. This bread is sliced open and filled, then toasted, and pressed flat, in a panini press.

These sandwiches can be made with a wide variety of fillings, and can be bought pre-made in stores and sandwich shops. They can also be made at home, if you have either a proper panini press, or some other device that will achieves the same effect (a George Foreman Grill can do the trick).
