Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Slice the Meats and Cheeses

    Thinly slice the capicola, provolone, and mozzarella cheese using a sharp knife or a deli slicer. Aim for even slices for the best presentation and texture.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Basil

    Wash the fresh basil leaves under cold water and gently pat them dry with a paper towel. Set aside for assembly.

Assembly

  1. 3

    Layer the Ingredients

    On a serving platter or a large board, start by laying down the slices of capicola. Next, layer the provolone slices on top of the capicola, followed by the mozzarella slices.

  2. 4

    Add Fresh Basil

    Scatter the fresh basil leaves evenly over the layered meats and cheeses, allowing for fresh flavor in every bite.

  3. 5

    Drizzle with Hot Honey

    Using a spoon or a small dish, drizzle the hot honey over the entire platter, ensuring it reaches all sections of the capicola and cheese.

  4. 6

    Serve

    Serve the capicola platter immediately as an appetizer, with toothpicks or small forks for easy eating.
