Cheese, Please!…Old Quebec Vintage Cheddar

July 21st, 2008 · 3 Comments · Cheese Please!

It was fantastic on burgers (see Burger Mini-Panini Slider Bonanza!) and added a great punch of flavor to fish patties (see Crispy Fish Panini) - it’s about time I give Old Québec Vintage Cheddar its proper due in a Cheese, Please! post.

Burger Mini-Panini Slider Bonanza!

July 7th, 2008 · 17 Comments · Beef Panini Recipes, Cheese Please!

If you come to dinner at my house, there’s a really good chance you’ll encounter a “dress-your-own” component in at least one of the courses.  The main reason is that I firmly believe that dinner guests are entitled to be served something they’d like to eat!  How many times have you been invited to someone’s [...]

Red Dragon, Roast Beef & Arugula Panini Recipe

June 30th, 2008 · 14 Comments · Beef Panini Recipes, Cheese Please!

Red Dragon, with its robust cheddar, mustard and ale flavors, would make a fantastic grilled cheese sandwich on its own (read my “review” of this great cheese!).  In fact, I broiled a few open-faced ones for breakfast last week!  But since the point of my Cheese, Please! series is not only to find great cheeses [...]

Emmental, Honey & Ham Panini Recipe

June 24th, 2008 · 14 Comments · Cheese Please!, Pork Panini Recipes

I may have a new favorite sandwich.  Now, I have enjoyed all of the panini on my blog or I wouldn’t have written them up (trust me, there a number that will never be repeated!), but today’s Emmental, Honey & Ham Panini was especially tasty.  Can’t-put-it-down good.  And it all hinged on the terrific flavor [...]

Cheese, Please!…Emmental

June 23rd, 2008 · 4 Comments · Cheese Please!

In my recent Panini Happy reader survey, I asked what your favorite sandwich ingredients were.  Would you believe how many of you responded, “Cheese, cheese and more cheese!”?  Wow! Well, I love cheese too.  Although sandwiches don’t have to contain cheese to be deemed “panini”, you’ve probably noticed that pretty much all of mine do.
