Notes

  • Choose Quality Ingredients: For the best-tasting sandwich, select high-quality Mozzarella, fresh burrata cheese, and flavorful pistachio pesto. Fresh, locally sourced ingredients can significantly impact flavor.
  • Slice Ingredients Thinly: Whether it’s the Mortadella, cheese, or bread, aim to slice your ingredients thinly and evenly. Thin slices ensure that each component is well-distributed throughout the sandwich, creating a balanced flavor profile in every bite.
