Salami Di Fichi (Fig Salami)
"A great addition to an hors doeuvres table, or as a gift. Also perfect with a set of cheeses. This fig salami is absolutely delicious and easy to make too! Comes from the Marche area of Italy. If you have vino cotto use that instead of the prune juice but its hard to find." It is one of the only homemade gifts I gave my dad and he loved it. 4 ingredients and so its simple to make. Does not include the resting time in the fridge"
