THE'summer brings to the table its basket full of colors, aromas and flavors: vegetables and fruit which are an explosion of vitamins and minerals, ideal for fighting the heat of this season.
And ours too Roman Pinsa joyfully embraces the ingredients of the summer season, ready to be the perfect base for delicious recipes that will accompany us at any time of the day, from snack to dinner.
SUMMER VEGETABLES FOR FLAVOURFUL AND COLOURFUL FILLINGS
Aubergines, peppers and courgettes These are vegetables that we are now used to seeing all year round on the fruit and vegetable counter, but it is in the summer that these ingredients become irresistible.
They are the protagonists of many traditional recipes but can also be the basis for more gourmet fillings: with a buffalo mozzarella or a fresher and more delicate cheese, they become excellent ingredients for tasty but light Pinse Romane, ideal for a country lunch or a snack at the seaside. If you add to these vegetables the stronger flavor of a seasoned cold cut, you get a tastier recipe, which you can enjoy for dinner with a good craft beer.
And let's not forget that summer is the time when we can finally enjoy tomato puree. San Marzano tomato which replaces the beloved preserves used during the other seasons of the year. A few leaves of fresh basil, a drop of EVO oil and you get the base for a Pinsa Romana that smells of the sea, holidays and distant memories.
And to stay on the topic of leafy vegetables, here are two ingredients that can give great satisfaction at the table: the chard and the chicory, to be sautéed in a pan with oil, garlic and chilli pepper and placed on a Pinsa Romana with sausage or bacon.
Among the ingredients to be added once cooking is finished, we cannot fail to mention the rocket, which goes well with cured meats such as bresaola or Parma ham and a sprinkling of flaked Parmigiano Reggiano.
About dairy products, summer is the best season to enjoy fresh cheeses, because sheep and cows, after grazing in spring, produce the best milk at this time of year.
FRUIT AND ROMAN PINSA: A UNION OF TASTE YOU DON'T EXPECT
Summer is the favorite time for many to enjoy a good snack or a breakfast based on fruit: cherries, figs, peaches, apricots, watermelon, melon They are thirst-quenching and juicy fruits, to be enjoyed in bites or in delicate jams.
Try combining these ingredients with a few squares of simple Pinsa Romana, as if it were a normal slice of toasted bread: add a good coffee or a fresh yogurt and you get a very filling but also light breakfast.
And you, which summer ingredient do you prefer to enjoy on Pinsa Romana?
