The Perfect Picnic Recipe | Peach, Mozzarella & Prosciutto Skewers with Hot Honey

Perfect Picnic Recipe by Abel & Cole. Peach, Mozzarella & Prosciutto Skewers with Hot Honey

 

Not only does Abel & Cole deliver sustainable, top-quality food and drink, but they also provide mouthwatering organic recipes. Knowing your love for outdoor dining, we’ve partnered with them to bring you a recipe that’s sure to become your go-to for delighting guests: Peach, Mozzarella & Prosciutto Skewers with Hot Honey. Juicy peaches, thinly sliced prosciutto crudo, creamy mozzarella, and fresh basil leaves come together to create a skewer that is sweet, salty, savoury, and downright delicious. The chilli-spiked honey drizzled over the skewers just before serving enhances the natural sweetness and makes this a picnic recipe to remember.

 

Recipe

Step 1
To make the hot honey, pour the honey into a small pan and add the dried chillies. Bring to a very gentle simmer, then turn the heat down and gently warm for 5 mins. Take off the heat and leave to infuse for 1-3 hrs – the longer you let it infuse, the spicier it will be. Scoop the dried chillies out of the honey. Pour the hot honey into a sterilised jar. It will keep for a few months in a cool, dark cupboard.

Step 2
To make the skewers, halve the peaches and scoop out the stones. Slice them into 12 wedges each. Drain the mozzarella and chop it into 36 pieces. Cut each slice of prosciutto crudo into quarters. Pick 36 leaves off the basil sprigs.


Step 3
To assemble the skewers, thread a peach wedge onto a skewer, followed by a mozzarella chunk, a slice of prosciutto and a basil leaf. Repeat, then do the same to make 11 more skewers.

Step 4
You can store these skewers in the fridge for a couple of hours. To serve, arrange them on a serving platter and drizzle over a little of the hot honey. Grind over some black pepper and serve.

 

Ingredients

340g runny honey
6 dried bird's eye chillies
