Salami Roll-Ups (Appetizers)

"I don't really know what these are called, officially, but it was often part of an appetizer tray. I really loved these though, and could devour an entire plate by myself. :D Sorry the ingredients and serving size are estimated, it's been literally 10 or more years since I've had the pleasure of making and/or eating these wonderful little appetizers, but I wanted to share with the 'Zaar community. This is a really iffy food for me to eat nowadays with IBS, because it's made with beef and cream cheese, although the cream cheese can be substituted with soy cream cheese like Tofutti Better Than Cream Cheese. We used Philadelphia brand back then."

  • green onion

directions

  • Spread a thin layer of cream cheese on a slice of salami, at least covering the center, but not necessary to go all the way to the edge.
  • Place a 3-4 inch-long piece of green onion into the center of the salami, on top of cream cheese.
  • Roll up and pin with a toothpick. Refrigerate if not serving immediately. Easy as that, and so yummy!

  1. These are great! The only thing I would suggest is that these appetizers are best eaten cold. If they are allowed to warm up to room temp, the salami becomes greasy and unappetizing. Otherwise, delicious!
     
  2. These are really good! I made mine with light cream cheese and light salami (and without the green onion, since I didn't have any in the house). I bet these would also be great on little rounds of bread or crackers as well. Yum!
     
  3. I chopped my green onion and added it to the cream cheese before rolling them up. I made these with both a hard Italian salami and a regular larger softer one and while both were devoured, I have to say that the softer ones were more popular of the two. Please see my Rating System: 4 lovely stars for a simple and tasty appitizer that I will be happy to make again. Thanks!
     
  4. i enjoyed these very much, making a few just for me. I used thinly sliced hot hungarian salami and I had a little cream cheese left which I spread on 2 slices and spread some goat cheese on another 2 slices putting in the spring onion and rolling. Delicious with a pre-dinner glass of wine. Thank you blancpage for a quick, easy and tasty appy. Made for Please Review My Recipe tag game.
     
  5. I've made these for years, but I use prepared horseradish instead of the green onion. Very good! I've even had someone that doesn't usually eat salami say that "this is really, really good". Just add the horseradish to your own taste.

Newest update March 28, 2008; I am so grateful and excited. A wonderful, generous, kind anonymous person gifted me with PM and I can't wait to use all the features. Thank you! I might add a couple notes or links to my page here such as forums I frequent, fave searches, and helpful info. Update March 2008: I was given the opportunity to join my very first recipe swap (I added the banner below, thanks Um Safia) This swap was really fun, interesting, and helpful. Lots of great recipes to choose from and lots of exposure for my own. I thought I'd update this a bit. It's April of 2007 already (wow!) and I might have written the stuff below at least a year ago, and longer. I live in AZ, with a roommate and a nice boyfriend. My roommate has only tried my cooking once, but my bf, bless his heart, tries really hard to tolerate it, lol! He's a good cook in his own right, but me, I'm still a newbie cook at heart. I still enjoy 'zaar and sometimes spend hours and hours on here, as it's still friendly, helpful, and interesting. :) Also, this is late in saying, but I'm supposed to be on an IBS-safe diet consisting of no dairy, egg yolks, caffeine, red meat, too much fat, everything I love, etc.... so I'm working on it, it's taking me years and years, but I've incorporated this kind of diet into my other eating, and if my tummy gets mad at me, well, I only have me to blame. :/ I've been married for almost two years and it's the first time I get to really cook for someone other than myself. (Hehe, I signed up with here not too long after I wrote this, now I'm separated - not because of my cooking lol - but surprisingly found myself again, acting as 'housewife'.) I'm not a great cook, but I do follow after my mother, who tends to estimte her ingredients and taste as she goes, but she and my sister are two of the best cooks I know. The best rule of thumb for seasonings is always add too little, you can always add more, but can't always take away if there's too much. I mostly try other recipes I find, but now and then experiment with whatever I have available if I can't get to the store or am broke, and sometimes come up with pretty good recipes. I also have a hard time cooking usually, it takes me longer than most people as I am legally blind and have no depth perception so sometimes it's hard for me to measure and prepare food. Any of the recipes I post might be estimated unless otherwise stated. Sorry for the inconvenience. :) I found this place doing one of my recipe searches. It looks like a fun place to get recipes. Take care all and happy cooking! :) <a href="http://s7.photobucket.com/albums/y254/Missymop/?action=view¤t=curriedcurrajongs.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y254/Missymop/curriedcurrajongs.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a> <img src="http://www.satsleuth.com/cooking/Swap14.JPG"> <img src="http://i26.photobucket.com/albums/c105/jewelies/NewZealandFlax.jpg"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PAC08Main.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r317/j_welcome/pics2/food/PRMRcopy.jpg"> <img src="http://i248.photobucket.com/albums/gg181/blancpages/recipes%20for%20Zaar/7016b640MY3ChefsShrunken.jpg"> Helpful Link for Cookbook help: http://www.recipezaar.com/bb/viewtopic.zsp?t=139810
