Put the shredded zucchini into a colander and toss with salt. Let stand for 20 minutes.
After 20 minutes, rinse and press out as much liquid as possible. Place in a clean tea
towel and squeeze until no more liquid is released. Put into a medium bowl with the four
cheeses and the basil. Toss gently to combine. You should have about 3 cups.
Preheat Cuisinart

Griddler

to High with the unit closed. Preheat conventional oven to
175ºF. Lightly brush one side of each slice of bread with olive oil. Place 4 slices of bread
on the work surface, oiled side down. Divide the shredded zucchini and cheese mixture
evenly among the 4 slices of bread – making as even a layer as possible. Top with the
remaining sliced bread, oiled side up.
When Griddler
®
has preheated, place two sandwiches on the bottom grill plate, evenly
spaced. Lower cover and apply light pressure to handle for about 30 seconds. Grill
panini for 3½ to 4 minutes. Remove to a rack and keep warm in preheated oven. Grill
remaining 2 sandwiches in the same way. Cut in half on the diagonal to serve.
