These triangular sandwiches are eaten all over the Veneto region as an afternoon snack or as cicchetti (the Venetian version of tapas) with a glass of prosecco. The thin crustless sandwiches filled with colourful creamy fillings are made on a dense soft white bread; sliced potato bread is a good Canadian substitute.
