| Sandwich di parmigiana/Parmigiana Sandwich |
I've never been a big eater. Greedy, yes, but then my stomach fills in half
a second, while my eyes, taste buds and brain would still like to enjoy the
food.
Often I make a sandwich for lunch and in the summer time it becomes a real opportunity: a healthy and fresh lunch that you can easily eat anywhere, even on a beautiful lawn!
There is no limit to our imagination when we talk about sandwiches, but this time I wanted to bite a concentration of Mediterranean flavours: a sort of Parmesan that preserve the freshness of each ingredient and a couple of slices of sweet Parma ham. Of course, the trick lies in the quality and freshness of the ingredients!

Non sono mai stata una
mangiona. Golosa sì, ma poi il mio stomaco si riempie in mezzo secondo, mentre
occhi, papille e cervello vorrebbero ancora godere del cibo.
Spesso a pranzo mi
preparo un sandwich e in estate diventa una vera opportunità: un pranzo sano e
fresco che si può consumare facilmente ovunque, anche su un bel prato! Non c'è limite alla nostra fantasia quando si tratta di sandwich, ma questa volta desideravo mordere un concentrato di mediterraneità: una sorta di parmigiana che conservasse la freschezza di ciascun ingrediente con l'aggiunta di un paio di fette di prosciutto di Parma dolcissimo. Ovviamente il trucco sta nella qualità e freschezza degli ingredienti!
