The Sanduíche de Mortadela offers a savory and rich flavor profile, characterized by the distinct taste of mortadella, often complemented by mustard and bread.
The dominant flavor is the savory, slightly spiced taste of mortadella, a large Italian sausage made with finely ground pork, studded with small cubes of pork fat and often flavored with peppercorns, pistachios, or myrtle berries. The bread provides a neutral base, while mustard adds a tangy and slightly spicy kick, balancing the richness of the mortadella. The bread absorbs the fats and oils from the meat, adding another layer of satisfaction to the dish. Some variations may include other condiments like mayonnaise or cheese.
