Specific Use Cases:

5.1. Making Sandwiches (with Sandwich Plates)

Use the sandwich plates for toasted sandwiches. Lightly butter the outer sides of your bread for a crispier result. Place the sandwich on the lower plate, close the lid, and cook for approximately 3-5 minutes, or until golden brown.
