• 4 slices of Mestemacher Westfalian pumpernickel for cutting out

• butter for spreading

• 8 slices of Parma ham

• 8 slices of herb salami

• 6 black olives in brine

Preparation

1. In each case, cut four round pumpernickel bites from a slice of bread and spread them with a little bit of butter.

2. Top with 8 slices of herb salami, garnish each with an olive and skewer with a toothpick.

3. Top with 8 slices of Parma ham. Deseed the melon and cut out 8 evenly-sized balls from the fruit pulp. A special melon cutter that simplifies this task is suited for this.
