Treat your ingredients with care...
- Sobrasada — Make sure to use high-quality sobrasada for the best flavor. If you can't find sobrasada, you can substitute it with a similar spreadable cured sausage like nduja or chorizo.
- Manchego cheese — Opt for aged Manchego cheese for a more pronounced flavor. If you can't find Manchego, you can use another semi-hard cheese with a nutty taste, such as Gouda or Cheddar.
Tips & Tricks
- For an extra kick of flavor, sprinkle some smoked paprika or chili flakes on top of the sobrasada before adding the cheese.
- If you prefer a sweeter sandwich, you can add sliced ripe tomatoes or caramelized onions as additional toppings.
- Serve the Bocadillo de Sobrasada with a side of pickles or olives to complement the flavors.
Serving advice
This Bocadillo de Sobrasada is best enjoyed fresh and warm. Serve it as a quick and satisfying lunch or cut it into smaller portions for a delightful appetizer at your next gathering. Pair it with a crisp Spanish white wine or a refreshing glass of sangria for a complete Spanish culinary experience.
Presentation advice
To enhance the presentation, you can garnish the sandwich with a sprinkle of fresh parsley or a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Serve it on a wooden cutting board or a rustic platter to showcase the traditional Spanish charm.
