For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a smear of pesto or a drizzle of balsamic glaze before pressing. If you don't have a panini press, you can achieve a similar effect by cooking the sandwich in a skillet over medium heat, pressing down with a spatula. Feel free to experiment with different cheeses and cured meats to customize your 'Toast Farcito' to your liking.
