Things To Grab
- Platter
- Small glass or champagne flute
- Cheese slicer
Directions
Using a small glass or champagne flute, fold 9 or 10 hard salami slices in half over the entire rim of the glass, one slice at a time and slightly overlapping each slice. With one hand holding the salami in place on the glass, turn the glass upside down with the other hand and carefully remove the glass. Place the salami rose on cutting board. Repeat making another salami rose until the remaining 9 or 10 hard salami slices.
For melon-and-prosciutto roll-ups, place the cantaloupe half on a cutting board with cut-side down. Using a cheese sliver, cut 4 long paper-thin slices or cantaloupe. Sandwich each thin slice of cantaloupe between 2 slices of prosciutto and roll up into a pinwheel. Skewer each with a wooden pick and basil leaf for garnish.
Fold each mortadella slice in fourths. Arrange folded mortadella slices on lettuce. Add soppressata salami slices, salami roses, melon roll-ups, artichokes, mushrooms, Pepperazzi peppers, olives, red pepper strips, grape tomatoes, mozzarella pearls, and focaccia. Sprinkle with thyme and oregano. Garnish with additional salt, black pepper, and olive oil, if desired. Drizzle with balsamic glaze.
