Focaccia Sandwiches
In a hurry for dinner before my cake decorating class, I ran into Earthfare for inspiration. I came home with gorgeous facaccia rolls and immediately got to work. Focaccia is related to pizza dough, but not considered to be the same. It is quite popular in Italy and is usually seasoned with olive oil and sometimes herbs, and may be topped with onion and cheese. I found one recipe which prompted me to create the other two. Duplication might be the biggest form of flattery, but when are we ever satisfied? Here’s to two quick sandwiches that can only be described with full mouths.
Turkey Facaccia
Facaccia Rolls
Deli Turkey
Provolone
Dijon Mustard
Baby Arugula Greens (Handful)
SLICE the facaccia roll
ASSEMBLE turkey on one half and provolone on the other
TOAST until the cheese has melted completely and has begun to sink into the holes
REMOVE from heat and SPREAD Dijon onto the turkey side. (The oil from the cheese will make spreading difficult)
LOAD with baby arugula, Salt & Pepper
SLICE.
Facaccia Caprese
Facaccia Rolls
Fresh tomatoes, sliced
Fresh mozzarella cheese, sliced
Basil leaves
Tbsp of good pesto (Sold by the jar)
Tbsp Mayonnaise
SLICE the facaccia roll
ASSEMBLE the tomatos on the bottom half
MIX a Tbsp Mayonnaise and a Tbsp Pesto and apply the top half.
PLACE mozzarella slices and basil leaves in the middle, Salt & Pepper.
SLICE.
