The salami sandwich is a life partner we rely on in moments of uncertainty: take a picnic and he is there, climb the peaks of Mont Blanc and he is there waiting for you in your backpack, stay for lunch on the beach and he is ready to comfort you with his greasy embrace.
But how do you make the perfect salami sandwich?
It is not enough to say salami and bread, yes, ok, if you are in a hurry it’s fine, but today we sat down and thought about the recipe to make the salami sandwich unique and unrepeatable.
First of all salami, we chose Felino salami for an ancient love, but do not set yourself limits, we have infinite types of pork salami available. Slice finocchiona, the wonderful smoked salami from Trentino-Alto Adige (Kaminwurzen), or even the spicy Calabrian salami.
But then you need an acid shoulder to dampen and attenuate the fat in the salami and so we chose the sauerkraut, the sour sauerkraut eaten in Germany and South Tyrol. A sandwich that brings Italy and Germany together under the same bread, extraordinary!
A salad leaf refreshes and is not denied to anyone, for what concerns the cheese you can choose between North and South with Bra or Caciocavallo Silano Dop.
