Pesto Cheese Panini
Introduction
A panini with a gooey cheese centre that allows you to recreate the iconic 'cheese-pull' shot is basically what Instagram was invented for.
Recommended equipment
Panini press or sandwich maker
Pro tip
Want to recreate the iconic gooey cheese pull shot above? Use firm mozzarella. You could use a more exciting cheese for the bulk of your panini, but at the very least add some mozzarella to the very centre, which you are going to pull in two.
