Summertime between breads: 5 easy and fresh snacks for this season

It may take a while to arrive, due to the heat, but sooner or later hunger interrupts a summer read. And the walk home from the beach feels long, endless, with that hole in your stomach that expands, and expands, to the point of despair. The easiest thing is to grab a good loaf of bread, tear it ferociously, and nibble at it until you feel relief. But the next easiest thing, and much better, is to hold it for a few minutes and stuff it like in the recipes we suggest below. Although, yes, you can always nibble on a piece of bread.

A Catalan goat cheese, Sarró, is the star of this playful sandwich , which, in addition to abundant thinly sliced cured meat, is topped with pistachios, honey, and lots of basil.

This light recipe by Manel García and Hanna Buschmann of Addicted to Hummus is as packed with plant-based protein, healthy fats, and fiber as it is with acidity, sweetness, and crunch. It also includes pickles and avocado.
Pickles again, of course: they're synonymous with freshness in any sandwich. In this case , a very New York recipe, with pastrami that you can make at home (or buy ready-made), mustard, and whole-wheat bread (or whatever bread you prefer).

The key to this recipe is to briefly marinate thin slices of roast turkey in a highly umami blend of the unpronounceable Worcestershire sauce with mustard and capers. It goes well with mató and preserved white asparagus.

This preparation , although less fresh, is perhaps the simplest and quickest. If you can't find them, you can replace the llonguet with another bread roll and the Mahón with a semi-cured cow's cheese that melts well. Add honey to taste.
