Flour
Paninos are made from a special flour, prepared from three ingredients & yeast. That flour comes from a "Secret recipe".
Composition
Due to their crunchy crust surface, paninos are brittle but at the same time soft in the inside. The water used for the dough is always cold.
Gourmet
Τhe different hydration of panino's dough makes it much digestible. It contains less carbohydrates, fat and salt. It is a super-organic and GOURMET product.
Aroma
Their rich aroma is achieved by proper fermentation time and the use of yeast. Yeast enables high assimilation and assists in the proofing process.

The cornerstone of the recipe is definitely the unique Panino Romano's flour (owned by Di Marco company). The flour used to achieve Panino's dough consists of three basic ingredients & yeast.
Flour should be mixed with cold water and the proportionate amount of water (hydration) can reach up to 80%, while in a common pizza it is between 50% and 60%.
The unique taste and composition of Panino Romano, among other things, is due to the top ingredient of the Mediterranean diet: olive oil! Extra virgin olive oil offers purity and adds lightness and taste to the product.
Maturation is of the essence! After a naturally-slow maturation process of 72 hours, panino makers roll out each dough by hand and give it proper shape.
Then the doughs are immediately baked in a special oven with a heavy stone base. In this simple traditional way paninos are ready within a few minutes!
As soon as they come out of the oven, doughs are immediately deeply-frozen to preserve taste and freshness. Freezing is carried out with liquid nitrogen at -70 degrees.
- Take the panino out of the freezer.
- Defrost it inside a bag at room temperature so that it will not become dehydrated.
- Alternatively, remove the panino from the freezer and place it in the refrigerator a few hours before use.
- Add the ingredients of your choice.
- Preheat oven prior to baking.
- Bake it in 250 °C for about 1-2 min in the conventional heating mode or 220 ° C in fan mode (depending on the power of your oven).
- Ready to serve.
