Tramezzino ai Tre Sapori (Three-Flavored Sandwich)

Category: Appetizer
Serves: 1
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Chill Time: 2-3 hours (or 30 minutes in freezer)

Ingredients:

Ingredient Quantity
Smoked Salmon 100g
Cow’s Milk Ricotta 150g
Tomato Paste 2 tbsp
Salt to taste
Cream Cheese 250g
Fresh Parsley 2 tbsp
Fresh Thyme 2 tbsp
Chives 2 tbsp
Cow’s Milk Ricotta 200g
Pesto alla Genovese 180g
White Bread (Sandwich) 6 slices
Whole Wheat Bread 6 slices

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Creams:

    • In a blender, combine the smoked salmon with ricotta and tomato paste. Blend until smooth and well mixed to form the first creamy layer.
    • For the herb mousse, finely chop the parsley, thyme, and chives. Add them to a bowl with the cream cheese and mix until everything is well incorporated. This will create your second creamy layer.
    • For the final layer, mix the cow’s milk ricotta with pesto alla Genovese until smooth and combined.
  2. Assemble the Sandwich Layers:

    • Begin by trimming the crusts off both the white bread and whole wheat bread slices. Use a spatula to level the edges for a neat presentation.
    • Spread the herb cream mixture over a slice of white bread, smoothing it evenly. Place a slice of whole wheat bread on top.
    • Next, spread the smoked salmon and ricotta mixture onto the whole wheat bread and top with another slice of white bread.
    • Finally, spread the pesto ricotta mixture on top of the white bread slice and cover with the remaining whole wheat bread.
  3. Final Touches:

    • Once all the layers are assembled, cover the sandwich tightly with plastic wrap.
    • Refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours in the coldest part of your fridge, or for a quicker chill, place it in the freezer for 30 minutes.
  4. Serve:

    • After chilling, remove the sandwich from the fridge or freezer. Unwrap the plastic and slice it into neat portions. For an elegant touch, cut the sandwich into thin strips to reveal the colorful layers inside.

Serve this delightful three-flavored sandwich as a savory appetizer for your next gathering or as a refreshing snack! Enjoy the unique combination of smoky salmon, creamy herb cheese, and the rich pesto that will tantalize your taste buds.
