- 1 small scallion, thinly sliced
- 1 1/2 tablespoons freshly grated white horseradish (or drained jarred horseradish)
- 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- Salt
- Eight 3/4-inch-thick slices of peasant bread
- Extra-virgin olive oil, for brushing
- 1/2 pound thinly sliced mortadella
- 1/2 pound Robiola Bosina cheese, cut into 4 equal slices with the rind, or fresh ricotta
- In a small bowl, combine the yogurt with the scallion, horseradish and mustard.
- Season with salt.
- Heat a panini press or griddle.
- Brush both sides of each bread slice with oil.
- Arrange 4 bread slices on a work surface and spread with the horseradish yogurt.
- Layer the mortadella and Robiola on top and close the sandwiches with the remaining 4 bread slices.
- Set them on the preheated press or griddle.
