These bresaola rolls with ricotta cheese and citrus are very delicate and easy to prepare, making them a fantastic finger food for your cocktail parties. The iconic sweet aromatic flavour of the bresaola combines with creamy ricotta, earthy walnuts and fragrant sundried tomatoes to seriously rock your taste buds.
Bresaola is an air-cured beef ham originated in the northern region of Lombardy, Italy. It carries a deep ruby red shading and has very thin lines of marbled fat scattered through it. You can safely say that Bresaola is essentially Beef Prosciutto. However, prosciutto is distinctly smooth and rich with its fat content, while Bresaola prioritizes a sweet, aromatic flavour that emphasize the lean cut of beef and spices. It’s great to pair them with cheeses, either with fresh and spreadable cheeses like ricotta/goat cheese, or aged cheese like Parmesan/pecorino, and peppery arugula.

 
  • 150 g Ricotta or fresh goat cheese
  • 35 g Walnuts, toasted and chopped
  • 50 g Sundried tomatoes in olive oil, drained and chopped
  • Salt and black pepper
  • 12 slice Bresaola

  • Extra-virgin olive oil
  • Freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 50 g Arugula
  1. In a bowl combine the ricotta cheese, walnuts and sundried tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper. Mix everything together.
  2. Lay the bresaola slices on a flat surface and drizzle over some extra-virgin olive oil and a little lemon juice.
  3. Spoon the cheese filling in the centre of the bresaola slices, top with some rocket leaves and roll up the slices to form little cylinders.You can secure them with toothpicks or tie up with chives.

  20. We love bresaola --but finding authentic bresaola here is impossible, so we will have ot wait until we are back in Italy to make this. But I love every ingredient. I might actually try this with prosciutto, as I can't wait to taste it!

  23. What a lovely combination. I adore bresaola. It might in fact be my favorite type of salumi.

    We so seldom buy Bresaola when we are in Italy, but the flavour combination sounds so good. Something to try next time we are in Europe.

  28. Never heard of bresaola before but when you say Beef Prosciutto, seem more relatable :p Great pairing with cheese, sundried tomatoes, and arugula .
