Ingredients:

Serving

1 lb prosciutto (1 lb sliced is '37 slices)
1/2 lb provolone cheese (sliced ' 1/2 thick )
2 lbs cherry peppers (' 2 pt or 49 peppers)
1/2 gallon white vinegar
1 quart extra virgin olive oil
1 quart canola oil
1 small onion, thinly sliced
rosemary
bay leaf
dill weed
basil
chopped garlic
parmesan cheese

Directions:

Wash cherry peppers and place whole, stems intact, in 1 gallon jar.
Fill jar with white vinegar.
Let stand at least one week.
I've let them soak as long as 3 weeks.
You may need to add more vinegar to keep the jar full as the peppers soak it in.
The peppers will float, make sure to keep them covered.
After soaking for at least a week, pour out vinegar and rinse peppers in cool water.
Remove stems and seeds.
Expect to lose 3 or 4 peppers during soaking.
Cut provolone to the appropriate size to fill the peppers.
(~1/2 cube) Cut the Proscuitto slices in half.
Wrap the provolone with a 1/2 slice of Proscuitto (or 2 for larger peppers) and stuff into pepper.
Add some Olive Oil to the jar.
Add Onion, Rosemary, 2 or 3 Bay Leaves, Dill Weed, Basil and chopped Garlic to oil.
Place the peppers in the jar and fill the jar with 50% Olive Oil and 50% Canola Oil.
Top off the jar with a sprikle coating of Parmesan cheese.
Let soak a minimum of one week.
I let them soak and store them at room temperature.
You may want to refrigerate for longer shelf life.
(I've had shelf life in excess of one month) ENJOY!
