Appetizer in Italian

What are antipasti and what does buffalo bill have to do with it?

We at Büffel Bill understand: Italian food is much more than just pizza and pasta. Mozzarella and Parmesan to salami, prosciutto and salsiccia to tomatoes, olives and aubergine – southern cuisine delights with a rich variety of flavours, spices and tastes. And if you want to enjoy authentic food, you should bring a good appetite – because in STraditionally, four different courses are served. The first courses are the classic antipastiBut what exactly ends up on the plate?

antipasti to bite into

Even before the main course, Italians enjoy hearty flavours. A selection of antipasti (“before the meal”) is a must for every dinner. With a glass of wine, you can enjoy pickled vegetables, creamy mozzarella, wafer-thin salami and dried ham, while in the kitchen the pasta slowly simmers and the sweet smell of the tomato sauce fills the room.

There are no rules or recipes for the Italian appetizer, but it is about sharing the food with friends and family - and with every bite a piece of the Südens. Because in Italian cuisine, the art of eating is not only a question of taste, but also of community and the enjoyment of every single moment. The bitter aroma of the olives harmonizes perfectly with the salty cheese, the hearty meat delicacies and the crispy, spicy bruschetta. No matter what ends up on the starter plate – each individual product impresses with its very own taste quality.

That is why in our shop you can find not only our classic Mozzarella di Bufala, but also a selection of the finest meat delicacies. Our fiery-hot buffalo salami Schiacciata goes particularly well with a slice of ciabatta, creamy burrata and pickled artichoke hearts. If you prefer something milder, the spicy buffalo bresaola, a piece of Parmesan and fresh rocket to taste.

But be careful: Even though we would love to eat our fill of antipasti, there are still three more courses to enjoy after the Italian starter. So, buon appetito!
