Salami Wrapped Pickles
My favorite part about this simple recipe is that you only need a handful of ingrients to put them together. And since there’s no cooking involved, they’re ready in a matter of minutes!
To make your own salami wrapped pickles, you’ll need just three simple ingredients:
- Mini pickles: I used Vlassic Snack’ems Dill Pickles, but you could use any type of gherkin pickles for this appetizer. And if you can’t find gherkins, you can also cut your dill pickle spears into bite-sized pieces to make this recipe.
- Cream cheese: Make sure you start with softened cream cheese to make these roll-ups. I suggest letting the cheese sit out at room temperature for three to four hours before you start making them.
- Salami: Large, thin slices of salami are the best option for this appetizer because they make wrapping your pickles a little easier. I suggest getting your salami sliced at the deli so you know your pieces are nice and thin.
How to Make Salami Wrapped Pickles
Since you can whip up these quick appetizers in minutes, there’s nothing to preparing them for your next party! Just follow these quick instructions to make your own salami wrapped pickles at home.
Start by cutting your salami slices in half to make them fit perfectly around your mini dill pickles. After that, you can spread a thin layer of cream cheese over one side of the salami slice.
Warp the salami around the mini pickle with the cream cheese side down. Once the meat is fully wrapped around the pickle, place a toothpick on top to secure the salami slice in place.
Salami Wrapped Pickle Appetizer Ideas
See how simple it is to make this quick pickle appetizer? And that means it’s also easy to adjust the recipe to suit your own tastes!
Try using some of these recipe adjustments and substitution ideas to help you create a delicious snack for any occasion:
- Use full sized pickles. Mini pickles are a cute way to prepare these snacks. But if you don’t have any on hand, you can also use regular dill pickles. Cut spears or full pickles into bite-sized pieces, then wrap them with the cream cheese covered salami and secure it with a toothpick.
- Try different meats. You can’t beat the flavor combination of salami, cream cheese, and pickles! But if you want to change things up, you can use different types of meat to wrap your pickles. Try using thinly sliced pepperoni, ham, or smoked turkey for a different flavor profile.
- Add them to your charcuterie board. These cute pickle snacks make the perfect addition to a charcuterie board! Prepare them ahead of time and store them in the fridge, then arrange them on your board with the rest of your meats, cheeses, and other snacks.
Can You Make Salami Wrapped Pickles Ahead of Time?
These no bake appetizers can easily be made ahead of time and served later! You can make your appetizers up to 2 days in advance. Since the snacks are made with cream cheese and meat, it’s important that you store them in the fridge until you’re ready to serve them.
How Do You Store Salami Wrapped Pickles?
Place the salami wrapped pickles in an air tight container or cover them with plastic wrap for best results. After that, place them in the refrigerator until you’re ready to snack on them again. These pickles will stay good for up to four days when properly stored.
