Deep-fried mozzarella sandwiches (mozzarella in carrozza)
Sandwiches
A popular street food or antipasto from Naples and Rome that dates back to the 1800s, mozzarella in carrozza literally means "mozzarella in carriage," referring to the resemblance that the string of melted cheese has to the reins of a horse and carriage. <br /> <br />While it's commonly made with soft white bread, which is somewhat lighter and you can squash together to seal the edges better (just be careful that it doesn't get too soft once dipped in the egg mixture), it's tastier with a delicious sourdough bread or a rustic country-style, wood-fired loaf. You can actually use pretty much any bread you like for this as long as the crusts are cut off and the bread is good and compact. <br /> <br />This is recipe is adapted from Roman cookbook author Ada Boni.
