Chef notes
- Use very thinly sliced salami so the slices are flexible and easy to fold into roses and bows. - Choose firm cherry tomatoes and fresh parsley for the best color and presentation. - Pat the mozzarella balls and olives dry before arranging them to prevent excess moisture on the platter. - For a beautiful centerpiece, build the platter from the center outward, keeping each ring as even as possible. - Fold the salami slices gently and secure the decorative shapes with small appetizer picks. - Assemble the platter shortly before serving and keep it refrigerated until ready to serve. - For an extra elegant finish, add a light sprinkle of freshly cracked black pepper and Italian herbs over the mozzarella. - Use a large white round platter to make the colorful ingredients and salami roses stand out.
