Antipasto, which means before the meal is a typical first course in Italy and is comprised of an array of fresh deli meats, fresh mozzarella, basil leaves, wine-soaked tomatoes, roasted garlic and artichoke hearts. However, much like any appetizer, this can be prepared to taste.

Ingredients

4 ounces fresh mozzarella
5 ounces cured salami, sliced
3 basil leaves
1 tomato, finely chopped
1/3 cup white wine
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Directions

Place chopped tomatoes in a shallow bowl. Pour wine over and chill for at least two hours.
Arrange a platter with meat, cheese, basil, tomatoes and olive oil. Serve with fresh, crusty bread or on its own!
