The Legacy on Your Table
Prosciutto has always been valued for the delicate prancing of its salty flavors on the tongue. Aso do take a moment, while you are in the din and bustle of the market, to look at the weather beaten wooden holder in which the baroque meat wallow in the profundities of the earth. Think of how much these humble objects tell us of times past. And at home as well, the prosciutto stand keeps watch, constantly reminding us of generations gone by and traditions held dear. It says to us, “Stay awhile over supper, let’s talk a friendly lively chat and have a night together in the midst of the stuff of life.” Lovingly consider whether one of the following recipes can be at your table, making a new ritual out of an existing one. Then gather, pour drinks, pass dishes and then clear them, too.
