Speck Alto Adige PGI & Asiago PDO Panino

We have updated the everyday “Ham & Cheese” sandwich here with a true Italian twist from the Speck Alto Adige & Asiago to the Panini Grill.

Yield: 1 sandwich

  • 1/2 cup fresh Arugula
  • 1/4 cup thinly sliced Radicchio
  • 1 Tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1-2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
  • 1 Italian roll or 6" piece of Focaccia or Ciabatta
  • 3 ounces sliced Speck Alto Adige PGI
  • 1 ounce sliced Asiago Fresco PDO
  • 1 small tomato

Place Arugula & Radicchio is small bowl. Drizzle with Extra Virgin Olive Oil & Vinegar and mix well. Set aside.

Slice the roll (or bread) and layer with the Speck Alto Adige, Asiago, Tomato & the Arugula & Radicchio salad. Top with the remaining half of the roll (or bread) and place in preheated Panini Press until golden on the outside.

Chef's Tip:

If you do not have a Panini press, any grill or sauté pan will work. Place the sandwich in the sauté pan and “press” it with another pan on top.
