At our house w love carpaccio ♥
Everytime I ask Peter, what he wants for dinner – It is carpaccio.
Carpaccio is super easy & fast to make, and it is a very cosy dinner.
You can use it as a small starter, or as a bigger main dish. We often have bacon wrapped dates with this – It makes it a bit tapas-ish! 😉
It is so great & cosy on a friday evening.
Well .. I have to admit, that I usually buy prepacked bresaola from the supermarked. It is so easy, when it only is everyday foos, and not food for a lot of guest.
I should try visit my butcher & hear about carpaccio from veal fillet (and if he can cut it in thin thin slices for me 😉 )
That has to be my next project! 🙂
I am sure it tastes a million times better.
If it’s not from the butcher, then maybe try this:
Organic sliced bresaola or whole bresaola
