Notes

Use quality ingredients.
Assemble your sandwich while the piadina is warm for the best texture and flavor. If it has cooled, briefly reheat it in a dry skillet or oven to refresh its softness.
Serve your sandwich immediately after assembling it to keep the ingredients crisp and the cheese creamy.
Feel free to add other ingredients like roasted peppers, olives, or a spread of pesto to customize the sandwich to your taste.
