Typically this type of dish is served as an antipasto which is the starter for a meal. We also like it served as a main with a variety of other dishes and salads. Best to get the salami freshly sliced from a Deli. As to what type of salami, we have not named any one in particular as it really is to taste. If buying bocconcini loosely, make sure you get the liquid to cover to preserve them.

- 4 bocconcini – each sliced into 4
