Derived from the French word for cooked meat, charcuterie is a platter of fine cooked and dry-cured meats with various garnishes that's served as an appetizer. This platter serves up a variety of colors, flavors and textures. Ingredients:
1 small head green leaf lettuce |
1/3 pound thinly sliced prosciutto |
1/3 pound thinly sliced soppressatta (dried italian salami) |
1/3 pound thinly sliced turkey |
6 ounces cheese (such as provolone, asiago, or parmesan) |
1/4 cup jarred cocktail onions |
1 cup gherkins or cornichons |
4 tablespoons dijon mustard |
1 12-ounce jar marinated artichoke hearts, drained |
1 large baguette, sliced into rounds |
Directions:
1. Arrange the lettuce, prosciutto, soppressatta, turkey, cheese, onions, gherkins, and mustard on a platter. Serve with the artichoke hearts and baguette slices. Tip: Take the cold cuts out of the refrigerator about 20 minutes before placing them on the platter. At room temperature, they'll be tastier, more tender, and less likely to tear. |
