From cubed meats and cheeses to marinated vegetables, assorted antipasti appetizers offer a great way to start or form the basis for a meal.
One of the products to be introduced by Polli this year takes the form of a unique appetizer or snack that blends artichokes with candied Italian oranges, based on a traditional Italian recipe. For the utmost enjoyment, Polli recommends pairing the artichoke snack with a glass of wine or a spritzer to be instantly transported to Italy.
