Have you ever eaten a specific food, tried a combination of unusual ingredients, enjoyed a meal from your childhood, and thought everything was great but something was missing?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I came up with the conclusion that the act of eating is something so sacred, an experience so full, something so emotional that it can<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2019<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">t be able to leave something out of consideration of his total being. It needs a perfect set to be enjoyed, a background to complement the flavor that the tongue conveys to the brain.\u00a0All this frenzied raving to tell you that from today I will match (only for you) not the wine (I would but I can\u2019t do it\u2026 Don\u2019t worried about it, work in progress) but rather a special song to the recipe of any dish that I will propose you. Trust that will make a real difference.\u00a0Like all the best discoveries that have changed the world, even this one comes from a balanced mix of randomness, a sweet kiss of the three Fates, and peculiar and delicate astral conjunctions.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While I was tasting a bite of this savory pie, Sara put on a disc (oh yes we have the turntable instead of the I-pad) and<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2026<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> whoa. Music was matching perfectly the flavor of the food, amplifying the taste in one Edenic ear-mouth harmony.\u00a0Once you try it, you can\u2019t go back ever again. I leave you with a question: do you think it would be useful for me to share these thoughts with a good psychologist?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Matching soundtrack: <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Edith Piaf <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2013 <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">La vie en rose<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Level of difficulty:<\/strong> Oh, this is elementary, my dear Watson!<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h5>INGREDIENTS (serves 4, or many if you serve as a starter)<\/h5>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5 slices of Carasau bread (it<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2019<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">s a typical bread from Sardinia &#8211; since I highly doubt that you can find it outside Italy, as an alternative you can use <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201c<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">roasted<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201d <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">pita bread or look for what English call <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2018<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">carta di musica<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2019<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.)<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">250 gr. of soft cheese<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">250 gr. of Philadelphia cheese or cream cheese<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">100 gr. of Speck (it<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2019<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">s another typical food from Northern Italy- it<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2019<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">s a smoked ham that has been seasoned, cured and air dried) <\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2 leeks<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An half red onion<\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Olive oil, salt, black pepper, rosemary to taste <\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/test.theeatculture.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Torta-salata-pane-carasau_6.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11647\" src=\"http:\/\/test.theeatculture.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Torta-salata-pane-carasau_6.jpg\" alt=\"Torta salata pane carasau_6\" width=\"850\" height=\"710\" srcset=\"https:\/\/test.theeatculture.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Torta-salata-pane-carasau_6.jpg 850w, https:\/\/test.theeatculture.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Torta-salata-pane-carasau_6-300x250.jpg 300w, https:\/\/test.theeatculture.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Torta-salata-pane-carasau_6-330x275.jpg 330w, https:\/\/test.theeatculture.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Torta-salata-pane-carasau_6-690x576.jpg 690w, https:\/\/test.theeatculture.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Torta-salata-pane-carasau_6-694x580.jpg 694w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>PROCESS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We start from the leek: we cut it into slices and put it to simmer with a little salt and pepper in a nonstick skillet with two rounds of extra virgin olive oil.

Now we can start with the actual composition of the dish.\u00a0Spread the Philadelphia and add few spoons of soft cheese (tip: keep it out of the fridge a few hours before using it, so it will be softened and easy to work over the bread to avoid the breakdown).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/test.theeatculture.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Torta-salata-pane-carasau_5.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11649\" src=\"http:\/\/test.theeatculture.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Torta-salata-pane-carasau_5.jpg\" alt=\"Torta salata pane carasau_5\" width=\"850\" height=\"636\" srcset=\"https:\/\/test.theeatculture.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Torta-salata-pane-carasau_5.jpg 850w, https:\/\/test.theeatculture.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Torta-salata-pane-carasau_5-300x224.jpg 300w, https:\/\/test.theeatculture.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Torta-salata-pane-carasau_5-330x246.jpg 330w, https:\/\/test.theeatculture.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Torta-salata-pane-carasau_5-690x516.jpg 690w, https:\/\/test.theeatculture.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Torta-salata-pane-carasau_5-775x580.jpg 775w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Over the layer of cheese put\u00a0the stewed leeks.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/test.theeatculture.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Torta-salata-pane-carasau_4.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11651\" src=\"http:\/\/test.theeatculture.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Torta-salata-pane-carasau_4.jpg\" alt=\"Torta salata pane carasau_4\" width=\"850\" height=\"584\" srcset=\"https:\/\/test.theeatculture.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Torta-salata-pane-carasau_4.jpg 850w, https:\/\/test.theeatculture.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Torta-salata-pane-carasau_4-300x206.jpg 300w, https:\/\/test.theeatculture.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Torta-salata-pane-carasau_4-330x226.jpg 330w, https:\/\/test.theeatculture.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Torta-salata-pane-carasau_4-690x474.jpg 690w, https:\/\/test.theeatculture.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/Torta-salata-pane-carasau_4-844x580.jpg 844w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 850px) 100vw, 850px\" \/><\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lastly, add the speck (or use bacon as an alternative). \u00a0<\/span><\/strong>Therefore put over the bread, and so on &#8230;
