Prosciutto ve dosya

Prosciutto e fichi is an Italian appetizer consisting of only two ingredients – figs and prosciutto crudo. The dish is especially popular in August in the region of Veneto. Good figs should be supple, jammy, and a little bit squishy, oozing their nectar from the base. One of the best varieties for this appetizer is called settembrini – green, small, soft, and extremely sweet figs that are in season in late August and early September. The figs are divided into quarters and then a few slices of prosciutto crudo are rolled and placed onto each fig. This appetizer is often served with crusty bread on the side.
