Un panino al prosciutto, per favore


During the weekdays, chances are that many workers don’t have the time to sit down at a restaurant and eat a traditional full course meal. The alternative is the panino (sandwich) with a choice of filling like prosciutto (ham) or mortadella.
Italy is well known for its dry-cured hams (prosciutto crudo) like the Parma and San Daniele denominations. But if you have a chance to visit a grocery early in the morning, you may be able to taste the flavor of the prosciutto cotto arrosto (oven roasted ham) while it’s still warm. Have them make for you a panino al prosciutto while the bread is still warm too. And heaven is suddenly at your reach…

    Thanks for the delicious information! We are going back to Italy for the third time next year. We can hardly wait! I will find a place to get a warm sandwich while we're there.
