Prosciutto is easily one of the best foods to ever be invented by us mortals.
If it were up to me, the uber-delicious slice of aged and cured ham would have godly status! That’s just how delicious the thin, buttery slices of prosciutto are!
Prosciutto is also one of those that’s a complete hit at parties, thanks to its ability to pair so amazingly well with a wide array of foods, both sweet and savory.
You can pair prosciutto with different kinds of fruits, cheese, and meat, and it will taste equally divine with all of them.
What’s more, prosciutto can be served hot and cold, which opens up a world of endless recipes for you to try.
