How to Make Pilgrim Panini Dip Sandwich

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup beef broth, 1/2 cup cranberry sauce, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce, 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves, and 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust to your spice preference).
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
  3. Reduce heat to low, and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the sauce has reduced by about half and slightly thickened, stirring occasionally.
  4. While the dip simmers, prepare your sandwiches: layer sliced turkey and provolone cheese on your favorite bread (ciabatta or sourdough recommended).
  5. Grill the sandwiches in a panini press or on a skillet over medium heat until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted and gooey (about 3-5 minutes per side).
  6. Serve the warm dip in small bowls or ramekins. Place the panini sandwiches on plates and let your guests dip away! Enjoy!
