Ingredients

  • 1 Fino bread*
  • Fresh tomato, Sliced
  • Feta cheese or Istanbulli** or Rumi*** cheese

Instructions

  • Cut the Fino open and fill it with the cheese of your choice from the above selection. Put the slices of tomato on top of it and close the bread and serve

And here you go! Very simple. It is the perfect midday snack. Something we crave and ask ourselves the moment the combination hit out tastebuds why we don’t consume it more often. Can also be dinner or breakfast. It is directly connected to our childhood memory. It is refreshing but also plays a huge part to warm us in winter. I don’t know how… it’s magic.

* Thin, soft and long Egyptian baguette-shaped bread roll with a mild taste that doesn’t have an open structure or thick crust. Skinny in width with 20 centimeters in length. If it’s not available, you can use any soft baguette-shaped bread. The one in the picture is not the original shape of Fino but has the same taste.

**white cheese made from cow or buffalo milk, similar to feta cheese but has a robust, very salty chili pepper taste into it.

***A hard, bacterially ripened variety of cheese. It belongs to the same family as Pecorino Romano and Manchego. It is salty, with a crumbly texture, and is sold at different stages of aging. With varying degrees of saltiness depending on the age. Usually, in local stores, you can find three ages, old, medium, and new. The older, the saltier, the better for this recipe. But you can go for the second stage if you don’t want much salt. Peppercorns may be added to Rumi cheese, and you can choose this type.
