Summer dinner with friends? The foolproof trick to make perfect, super-fresh salmon piadina rolls in just 10 minutes!
There always comes a time when the heat takes away any desire to turn on the stove, yet your appetite craves a delicious and impressive dish. This is where salmon piadina rolls come in, the perfect way to spice up an aperitif or last-minute dinner.
- Piadina 2
- Spreadable cheese 180 gr
- Smoked salmon 150g
- 1 bunch fresh rocket
- Chives
- Baby
- Grated lemon zest
- In a small bowl, combine the cream cheese, chives, a pinch of pepper, and grated lemon zest. Mix well with a spoon until smooth and creamy.
- Heat the piadina in a pan for just a few seconds per side: this will make it elastic and prevent it from tearing when you roll it up. Spread the cream cheese evenly over the surface, making sure to leave a few millimeters of free edge to prevent the filling from leaking out. Arrange the smoked salmon slices on top of the creamy layer and garnish with a generous handful of fresh arugula, previously washed and dried to perfection.
- Roll the piadina up starting from the bottom, tightening the seal tightly to avoid leaving any unwanted air pockets inside. Wrap the resulting cylinder tightly in plastic wrap and let it rest in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This crucial step helps compact the filling and will allow you to obtain a clean, precise cut. Once the resting time is up, remove the plastic wrap and cut the roll into rounds about 2-3 cm thick. Your delicious rolls are ready to serve!
This is a clever and quick recipe that transforms a classic piadina into a fresh, colorful, and extremely elegant finger food.
To make this soft salmon and cream cheese piadina roll, you'll only need a few minutes and quality ingredients. A touch of chives and a squeeze of lemon zest will give the filling the perfect aromatic boost.
The secret to keeping the dough from breaking while you're folding it? Warm it slightly in the pan to make it elastic. Also, remember that to get clean slices, a good chilling in the refrigerator, wrapped in plastic wrap, is absolutely essential.
