Description

Master the art of folding cured meats to create a stunning charcuterie board that impresses guests and enhances your culinary presentation.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 slices salami
  • 6 slices prosciutto
  • 12 slices capicola

Instructions

  1. To create salami roses, lay slices of Genoa salami over the edge of a shot glass, allowing the edges to drape down.
  2. For prosciutto ribbons, lay slices flat, fold halfway, pinch the edge, and zigzag fold to add dimension.
  3. For capicola, fold pieces in half and roll into triangles for an interesting design.
  4. To make salami chains, fold each hard salami slice in half, pair two together, and create a chain.

Notes

Opt for high-quality meats, chill before serving, and practice folding techniques for a smooth assembly.
