    * 2 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
    * 4 ounces mixed mushrooms, brushed clean and sliced (mixed wild and cultivated mushrooms)
    * 2 tablespoons finely chopped shallots
    * 2 tablespoons cognac
    * 1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon
    * salt
    * fresh ground black pepper
    * 4 slices crusty country bread (each slice 1/2 inch thick)
    * 3 ounces very thinly sliced Fontina cheese
    * 1 cup baby spinach leaves



    1. 1 In a saucepan, melt 1 1/2 tablespoons butter over med-high heat; add in mushrooms and shallots; saute until mushrooms are softened and release their juices, 3-5 minutes.
    2. 2 Continue to cook, stirring often, until most of the liquid is absorbed, 2-3 minutes longer.
    3. 3 Stir in the Cognac, chopped tarragon, and salt and pepper to taste.
    4. 4 Cook/stir, for 1 minute; let cool slightly.
    5. 5 Preheat the sandwich grill; melt the remaining 1 tablespoon butter in a small saucepan over med-high heat.
    6. 6 Place bread slices on a work surface and brush 1 side of each with the melted butter.
    7. 7 Turn and layer 1/4 of the cheese, half of the mushrooms, and half of the spinach on the unbuttered side of two of the bread slices.
    8. 8 Divide the remaining cheese on top; place the remaining 2 bread slices on top, buttered sides up, and press to pack gently.
    9. 9 Place the panini in the grill; close the top plate, and cook until the bread is golden and toasted, the spinach is wilted, and the cheese is melted, 3-5 minutes; serve immediately.
