Grape Tomato Blossoms
- 1/3 cup peppered Boursin cheese (from a 5.2-oz package), softened
- 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh basil
- 18 very thin slices Genoa salami (3 1/2 inches in diameter; 1/4 lb)
- 18 grape tomatoes
- 18 long fresh chives
- Stir together cheese and basil until combined well.
- Put 1/2 teaspoon cheese in center of 1 salami round.
- Press 1 tomato, stemmed end down, into cheese (to stabilize it), then gather salami up around tomato.
- Turn wrapped tomato on its side and tie salami with a chive just below gathers (handle chive gently so it won't break), leaving top of tomato exposed.
- Make more "blossoms" in same manner, then trim chives.
