Common Questions About Making Salami Roses
How Many Salami Slices does it take to make a Rose? It takes 4 Slices of Salami to make a rose with a skewer.
Can I make my roses ahead of time? Yes! Just make sure you cover your charcuterie tightly with plastic wrap to prevent everything from drying out!
Are Salami Roses Keto? Yes, they are! They are very low carb with only 1 g Carb per Rose with Cheese.
Can I make Salami Roses without using a wine glass? Yes you can. In fact, I find it much easier to use a skewer to hold the flower together.
Which other lunch meat can be used to make flowers? You can use any thinly sliced round meat of your choosing. Some great meat options are: Pepperoni, Turkey, Ham, Chicken or Roast Beef. (Note: If your meat doesn’t come in a round shape, you could always use a circle cookie cutter to cut it out. You’ll want it to be round because the round shape looks like rose petals when folded up.)
WHAT IS THE KETOGENIC DIET?
The ketogenic diet (often called keto), is a very low-carb, high-fat diet that shares similarities to paleo, Whole30, and Atkins. It involves drastically reducing carbohydrate intake, and replacing it with fat. When your body switches to burning fat for its primary fuel source, that’s when you hit ketosis.
While on the Keto diet you’re supposed to get at least 70 percent of your calories from fat, 15 to 25 percent from protein, and 10 percent from carbohydrates. You’re supposed to avoid all grains, legumes, root vegetables, fruit, (except berries) and sugar.

Recipe Notes:
– If your meat doesn’t come in a round shape, you could always use a circle cookie cutter to cut it out. You’ll want it to be round because the round shape looks like rose petals when folded up.
– You don’t have to use Baby Bell Cheese. You can use any type of hard cheese. Cut the cheese into small enough pieces to fit on the skewer. You can also skip the cheese altogether if you prefer to.
– Toothpicks can be used instead of the skewers if needed. Also if your skewers are to long you can cut them shorter with a pair of scissors.
– Some other great edible leaves to use instead of the basil leaves are: spinach, kale, lettuce, spearmint, sage or bay leaves.
