Ingredients
Salami Rolls
- 8 slices Genoa or hard salami (medium thickness)
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 2 tablespoons finely diced dill pickles (patted dry)
- 1 tablespoon chopped green onions (optional)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder or Italian seasoning
Instructions
- Prepare the filling: In a small bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, finely diced dill pickles, chopped green onions (if using), and garlic powder or Italian seasoning. Mix thoroughly until well blended to create a creamy, flavorful spread.
- Arrange salami slices: Lay the 8 slices of Genoa or hard salami flat on a sheet of parchment paper, making sure they don’t overlap to facilitate easy spreading and rolling.
- Spread the filling: Using about 1 teaspoon of the cream cheese mixture, evenly spread it over each slice of salami, leaving a small border around the edges to prevent the filling from oozing out when rolled.
- Roll the slices: Starting from one end, roll each slice tightly and evenly, applying gentle pressure so that the roll holds its shape without tearing the salami.
- Secure and chill: If needed, insert toothpicks to keep the roll-ups secure. Place the roll-ups in the refrigerator and chill for 15 minutes to let them firm up before serving.
- Serve: Enjoy the roll-ups whole for quick snacking or slice them into bite-sized pinwheels, perfect for gatherings and parties.
Notes
- Use medium-thickness salami slices to ensure the roll-ups hold together without tearing.
- Pat the diced dill pickles dry to avoid soggy filling.
- Green onions are optional but add a fresh flavor contrast.
- These roll-ups can be prepared in advance and refrigerated for up to 24 hours.
- For a spicier kick, consider adding a pinch of chili flakes or substituting garlic powder with smoked paprika.
- To make them easier to eat at parties, slice into 1-inch pinwheels after chilling.
