Category: Appetizers
Servings: 1
Ingredients:
| Ingredient | Quantity |
|---|---|
| La Bottega di Olivia&Marino | 10 pieces |
| Songino (lamb’s lettuce) | 10g |
| Salami | 1 slice |
| Speck (smoked ham) | 1 slice |
| Prosciutto Cotto (cooked ham) | 1 slice |
| Extra virgin olive oil | to taste |
| Salt | to taste |
| Fontina cheese | 1 slice |
Instructions:
-
Begin by thoroughly washing the songino (lamb’s lettuce). Once clean, place it in a bowl and drizzle it with extra virgin olive oil and a pinch of salt to taste. Toss it gently to coat.
-
Take a slice of Milano salami and fold it in half to form a delicate rose shape. Carefully curl the edges to create a spiral, placing the rose on a platter.
-
Now, take a slice of speck and roll it up on itself, forming a tight roll. This will add a smokey flavor and visual contrast to your dish.
-
Next, prepare the olive skewers. On a square serving plate, lay two pieces of olive skewers vertically, parallel to each other. Then, add two more skewers horizontally at each end to form a square shape.
-
Repeat the same process to create a second square layer, which you’ll place on top of the first. Finish the box with two more vertical skewers, forming a sturdy “box” shape for your olives and other ingredients.
-
Now, carefully fill the olive box with the prepared songino. Place the salami roses and slices of cheese—Fontina in this case—alongside, arranging them beautifully to create a delightful presentation.
-
The Olive Skewers with Cold Cuts and Cheese are now ready to serve! This dish is perfect as a savory appetizer that brings together bold flavors and textures, beautifully arranged for your guests to enjoy.
Enjoy your savory creation!
