Treat your ingredients with care...
- Avocado — Choose ripe avocados for a creamy texture. To check for ripeness, gently press the avocado, and if it gives slightly, it is ready to be used.
- Prosciutto — Opt for high-quality prosciutto for the best flavor. It should be thinly sliced and have a delicate texture.
- Whole grain bread — Look for whole grain bread that is dense and hearty. It adds a nutty flavor and provides more fiber and nutrients compared to white bread.
Tips & Tricks
- For added freshness, drizzle a little lemon juice over the avocado spread before assembling the sandwich.
- If you prefer a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the avocado mash.
- Experiment with different types of whole grain bread, such as multigrain or seeded bread, to add extra texture and flavor.
- To make it a heartier meal, serve the Tramezzino Piemontese with a side of mixed greens or a bowl of tomato soup.
- Customize the sandwich by adding additional ingredients like sliced tomatoes or a dollop of pesto.
Serving advice
Serve the Tramezzino Piemontese with a Twist as a light lunch or a satisfying snack. It pairs well with a side of mixed greens or a bowl of tomato soup. Garnish with a sprig of fresh basil for an extra touch of freshness.
Presentation advice
