Notes
-
- Prosciutto: This cured pork is fully cooked, so all you have to do with it is buy it! You can find it pre-packaged in your supermarket, and also at the deli department. I usually go to the deli so I can get exactly the amount I need!
-
- Fig Jam: Sometimes this delectable jam is in with the other jams, and sometimes it is with the fancy cheeses. If you can’t find fig jam you can use apricot or peach.
-
- Greens: Any type of small greens will work – we like basil, but you can use microgreens, small arugula or frisee leaves or even mint!
