Saltimbocca is one of the most typical Italian recipe.
I added “my personal touch” to enhance its flavor.
The salty taste of Umbria ham, and the sweetness of figs paired with the smoked scent of Vinsanto makes an explosion of flavours
(Vinsanto is a smoked and sweet wine liquor typical of Umbria)
This recipe was born by chance.
A typical autumn appetizer is Ham, Figs and Buffalo Mozzarella paired with a glass of prosecco.
I love the flavor of figs with ham, why not combine these 2 flavors to create a new recipe?
I try to make the saltimbocca with figs
The first taste doesn’t impress me, the taste is good, but it’s just a saltimbocca with a fig 🙁
I think about what could make this banal recipe into something unique.
The pairing of meat, ham and fig is good… so what can I add or change?
I look up and see a bottle of Vinsanto…
…Here is my missing ingredient!
In the video you can see how I used the vinsanto to make a banal recipe into an extraordinary recipe
