What's Inside

• Italian Salami Chub - 8 oz
  Dry-cured and gently spiced. Slice it thin.
• Peppered Salami Chub - 8 oz
  Dry-cured with a black pepper coating.
• Pecorino Romano by Locatelli - 7 oz
  Sheep's milk cheese, aged hard, sharp and salty. Locatelli is the reference Pecorino Romano. Shave it into slivers rather than cubing it.
• Parmigiano Reggiano DOP Wedge - 7 oz
  The protected-origin original, aged hard and crystalline. Break it into shards.
• Fennel Taralli by Mitica - 8.8 oz
  Small crunchy rings baked in Puglia with fennel seed. 
• Bruschetta Crackers - 4.2 oz
  Oven-baked toasts.
• Taggiasca Olives in Extra Virgin Olive Oil by ROI - 6.3 oz
  The small sweet Ligurian olive, packed in olive oil. Buttery and mild.
• Quartered Artichokes in Extra Virgin Olive Oil by Frantoi Cutrera - 9.87 oz
  Trimmed and preserved in oil. Tender and faintly bitter.
• Sundried Tomato Pesto by ROI - 6.3 oz
  Sundried tomatoes worked with olive oil into a dense, concentrated spread. Sweet and savory at once.
• Onion Jam by Frantoi Cutrera - 7 oz
  Sicilian onions cooked slowly down to a sweet, dark preserve. The classic partner for hard cheese, and the thing on the board people ask about.
• Balsamic Vinegar Crema Glaze by Giusti
  Thickened balsamic from the oldest balsamic house in Modena, founded in 1605. Thicker than vinegar, so it sits where you put it, over the Parmigiano, or across the artichokes.

Questions

Does anything need refrigerating?
The salami and both cheeses are cured and can safely remain unrefrigerated for a few days during transit or gifting. Once the box arrives, we recommend placing the cheeses in the refrigerator for best quality. Refrigerate the salami after opening; everything else can be stored in the cupboard.

How many people does it serve?
Eleven items build a board for six to eight as an appetizer. With bread and fruit added it stretches further, and the spreads and glaze keep long after the board is cleared.

What wine should I open?
Something red and uncomplicated. A Chianti or a Montepulciano d'Abruzzo handles the salami and the aged cheese without competing. If you'd rather drink white, a Vermentino works against the olives and artichokes.

What's the difference between Pecorino and Parmigiano?
Pecorino Romano is sheep's milk, sharper and saltier. Parmigiano Reggiano is cow's milk,  nuttier, with the crystalline crunch that comes from long ageing. Having both on one board is the point: they taste different enough that people notice.
