How to Make Traditional Antipasti Platter

  1. Gather your favorite antipasto ingredients (see suggested quantities below).
  2. Arrange cured meats (e.g., salami, prosciutto) on a large platter. Consider rolling some slices into elegant tubes for visual appeal.
  3. Arrange cheeses (e.g., mozzarella, provolone, parmesan) artfully around the meats. Vary textures and colors for a stunning presentation.
  4. Add marinated artichoke hearts, olives (various types), roasted red peppers, and sun-dried tomatoes. Scatter around the platter.
  5. Include fresh vegetables such as cherry tomatoes, cucumber slices, and bell pepper strips for a vibrant touch and contrasting flavors.
  6. Drizzle high-quality extra virgin olive oil over the platter.
  7. Gently sprinkle with freshly cracked black pepper and a pinch of sea salt (optional).
  8. Prepare small bowls of balsamic glaze and aged balsamic vinegar for dipping.
  9. Cover the platter and chill for at least 2 hours to allow flavors to meld (or prepare up to a day in advance).
  10. Bring the platter to room temperature 10-15 minutes before serving for optimal enjoyment.
