Grape, Parmesan, and Acacia Honey Skewers

Ingredients (for 12 skewers)

• 24 white or rosé grape berries, washed and dried
• 12 not too thin flakes of Parmigiano Reggiano PDO (aged 24-30 months)
• 2 teaspoons of acacia honey Lina Sapori e Delizie
• a few small leaves of fresh rosemary or thyme (optional)
• 12 small wooden skewers

Preparation

1. Cut the Parmigiano into regular, not too thin, flakes.
2. On each skewer, thread one grape, one Parmigiano flake, and another grape.
3. Arrange the skewers on a serving plate or a wooden board.
4. Just before serving, drizzle some acacia honey Lina Sapori e Delizie, allowing it to gently flow.
5. Finish with a small thyme or rosemary leaf for an aromatic and decorative touch.

Why it works

• Sweet-savory contrast: the freshness of the grapes meets the intense savoriness of Parmigiano and the silky sweetness of acacia honey.
• Simplicity and refinement: three ingredients that tell the story of nature, tradition, and Italian table elegance.
• Aromatic balance: acacia honey, with its floral and delicate taste, enhances the creaminess of the cheese without overpowering its aroma.

Texture

• The grapes offer a crunchy and juicy note.
• Parmigiano provides a crumbly and velvety texture.
• Honey binds everything with a sweet and fluid caress.

Tips and pairings

• Excellent as finger food for an aperitif or appetizer along with a glass of Pignoletto Vivace Vallona or a glass of Riesling Italico Ca’ Beltrami.
• You can prepare them in advance and store them covered in the fridge for 4–5 hours.
• Serve them on a wooden cutting board or on black tasting plates to highlight the color of the grapes and the luster of the honey.
• Gourmet variant: add a drop of balsamic vinegar pearls with truffle Lina Sapori e Delizie for a surprising final touch.
