How to Throw a Dim Sum Party

Check out our fig, prosciutto, and gorgonzola pizza: http://www.chowmama.com/2009/06/29/fig-and-prosciutto-pizza/

WRAP IN PROSCUITTO, AND WARM IN A LOW OVEN, OR TOASTER OVEN FOR A FEW MINUTES UNTIL THE CHEESE WARMS, BUT NOT LONG ENOUGH TO CRISP PROSCUITTO. ELEGANT AND HEAVENLY. ENJOYED AS AN APPETIZER, OR DESSERT WITH PORT OR A NICE FRENCH ROSE. PEOPLE GO NUTS OVER THIS, IT IS AN ABSOLUTE PERFECT COMBINATION. TRY, LET ME KNOW, NICHOLE
