Bread Choice
Pão de forma (sandwich bread) is most common, but crustier breads can also be used for a different texture. Fresh, soft bread is key.
Cheese Selection
Queijo prato (a mild, melting cheese) is the traditional choice, but mozzarella or other melting cheeses can be substituted.
Grilling Technique
Grill or pan-fry the sandwich over medium heat, pressing down gently to ensure even toasting and melting of the cheese. A panini press is also a common and effective method.
Butter/Margarine
Spreading a thin layer of butter or margarine on the outside of the bread before grilling enhances browning and flavor.
