Easy Marinated Cheese Appetizer with Salami & Pickles
Ingredients
  • Havarti Cheese (6 oz)
  • Choose a high-quality Havarti cheese, such as Roth Original, known for its creamy, mild flavor. Dice it into bite-sized cubes (around ½-inch) to ensure every bite includes a smooth, rich texture. Havarti melts slightly as it marinates, absorbing flavors well.
  • Sun-Dried Tomatoes (½ cup)
  • Use oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes for the best texture and flavor. Their slightly sweet, tangy taste adds depth to the dish. If they are too large, chop them into smaller pieces to distribute throughout the appetizer.
  • Salami (1 cup)
  • Cornichons (½ cup)
  • Cornichons are small, tangy pickles with a crisp bite that balances the rich, savory ingredients. If cornichons are unavailable, you can substitute with small, tart pickles and dice them similarly.
  • Castelvetrano Olives (½ cup)
  • Known for their mild, buttery taste, Castelvetrano olives add a mellow, briny element that doesn’t overpower the other flavors. You can find them pitted; if not, remove the pits and chop them into bite-sized pieces. Substitute with green or mild black olives if desired.
  • Fresh Basil (2 tbsp)
  • Fresh basil brings a light sweetness and herbal aroma that brightens the entire dish. Chop roughly, leaving some larger pieces for a beautiful presentation and balanced flavor.
  • Garlic Vinaigrette (1 cup)
  • Garlic Expressions is recommended for its garlicky, tangy profile, but any high-quality Italian-style vinaigrette works well. The vinaigrette acts as a marinade, coating each ingredient with flavor. Ensure it has a garlicky and slightly acidic taste to balance the richness of the cheese and salami.
