What kind of meats to use?

How to make a salami rose
How to make a salami rose using a champagne flute. Start by folding your salami in half over the lip of the cup. You are going to continue to do this with 6-7 pieces overlapping each piece. When your ready flip your cup upside down onto your board and lift the glass. You’ll have perfect roses as easy as that.
Tip: don’t handle the meat too much the more your hands warm it up the harder it is to work with. Place your roses into the fridge after making them.
You can also make a larger version with a wine glass. When making it with a wine glass repeat 3 times for 3 layers of salami. I prefer to use champagne flutes.
Creating these meat roses is an easy way to impress your guests but also add a little fun to your cheese plates. If you are looking to elevate your charcuterie plates try serving them on a cutting board and add some grapes, strawberries and dried fruits.
