Sandes de Presunto, a classic Portuguese ham sandwich, is a simple yet flavorful dish that highlights traditional Iberian ingredients. Typically made with crusty white bread, such as papo seco or a baguette-style roll, it is generously layered with presunto—a dry-cured ham similar to prosciutto. The ham provides a rich, savory flavor and is often complemented by butter, olive oil, or a light smear of mustard. While delicious, Sandes de Presunto should be enjoyed in moderation due to its high sodium content from the cured ham and refined carbohydrates in the bread. On the positive side, presunto delivers protein and essential nutrients like iron and B vitamins. Pairing it with a fresh salad or incorporating whole-grain bread can boost its nutritional profile. This sandwich is an iconic example of Portuguese culinary simplicity, perfect for a quick snack or light meal.
