PROSCIUTTO AND MELON ROLLS

Prosciutto and melon rolls are a fresh and easy-to-make appetizer, perfect as an alternative for lunch or dinner with a creamy cheese filling. The raw prosciutto rolls are also perfect to serve as an accompaniment to a summer aperitif, perhaps on the terrace or in the garden, or even better by the pool. If you want to serve them as finger food, I recommend cutting each roll in half for a perfect bite, eliminating the need to cut the roll later. You could serve them using appetizer bowls and bamboo skewers. Let’s see how to make prosciutto and melon rolls and if you try them, let me know. Barbara
