Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1 large crusty ciabatta or round Italian loaf
- 4 oz prosciutto
- 4 oz mortadella
- 4 oz Genoa salami
- 4 oz burrata cheese (or fresh mozzarella if unavailable)
- 1/4 cup basil pesto
- 1/4 cup sun-dried tomato spread or roasted red pepper spread
- 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
- Slice the bread loaf in half horizontally and drizzle the inside of both halves with olive oil.
- On the bottom half, spread the basil pesto evenly.
- Layer the prosciutto, mortadella, and Genoa salami over the pesto.
- Gently place thick slices of burrata over the meats, allowing the creamy center to remain intact.
- Spread the sun-dried tomato or roasted red pepper spread on the top half of the bread.
- Season with a pinch of salt and cracked black pepper.
- Close the sandwich and press down slightly. For best results, wrap it tightly and refrigerate for 30 minutes before slicing, or serve immediately if desired.
- Cut in halves or quarters and serve chilled or at room temperature.
Notes
- Wrap tightly in parchment and foil if packing for a picnic or lunchbox.
- Substitute burrata with fresh mozzarella or provolone for different textures.
- Sandwich can be made a few hours ahead and kept chilled to meld flavors.
