A walk around Ischia

The "Zingara", the famous sandwich of the nightlife in Ischia

Two large slices of bread (strictly cooked with wood or pellets) which are enclosed, once mayonnaise spread inside, on a horizontal layered filling of raw ham, fiordilatte cheese, salad tomatoes (the size of fried green ones .. at the train stop , trivial quote for cinephiles) and, then ...

Then? Placing the creation on the red-hot grill, it is necessary to carefully crush it, turning the two faces upside down a couple of times, so that the heat does its part to the middle, and the superficial singes of the crumb, which must not reach the too crunchy border of the bruschetta ... impregnate with liquids, fats and perfumes… Finally, the two slices swollen with delicacy are cut transversely in half, and goes with "bottomless" beer.
