Mediterranean Vegetables Tramezzini
In a bowl, mix the extra virgin olive oil, soft cream cheese, thinly chopped sundried tomatoes, minced garlic, fresh basil leaves and salt until you obtain a uniform cream. Taste and season with salt if required.
On a slice of bread, spread some of the flavored cream cheese and top with plenty of roasted Mediterranean vegetables. Top the sandwich with the second slice and cut into the desired shape using a sharp knife.
Do the same for the other 4 sandwiches.
Prosciutto and Parmesan
Spread a thin layer mayonnaise across a bread slice and top with two slices of prosciutto, some arugula, and Parmesan flakes.
Sprinkle some black pepper or olive oil if desired.
Starting from one side, roll the bread to create a roll and safely hold in place using toothpicks.
Slice the roll into inch thick portions and serve.
Do the same for the other 9 slices.
Tuna and Capers
Peel and thinly chop the fresh onion.
In a bowl, add the drained tuna, mayonnaise, capers, onions, and a little bit of salt. Should you wish, you can add some red pepper flakes or cracked black pepper too.
Mix well until you reach the desired consistency.
Spread some of the tuna filling onto a slice of bread and top with thin slices of tomato.
Close the sandwich using another slice of bread, then cut into two triangles if using square slices, or four, if using Italian tramezzini slices.
Do the same for the other four sandwiches.
How to store tramezzini?
- In the fridge: You can store tramezzini on a platter, tightly sealed with cling film; you can also store them in an airtight container for up to two days in the fridge. Before serving, allow them to sit at room temperature for 15-20 minutes.
- In the freezer: Stuffed tramezzini are not suitable for freezing.
