Ingredients

  • 1 cup cheddar cheese, cubed
  • 1 cup mozzarella or gouda cheese, cubed
  • 1 cup salami, sliced or cubed
  • 1/2 cup mini pickles (cornichons)
  • 1/2 cup green olives
  • Fresh herbs (like thyme or rosemary), chopped
  • 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 cup white vinegar or apple cider vinegar
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • Optional: red pepper flakes for extra spice

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Ingredients: Begin by cutting the cheese into small, bite-sized cubes if not already done. Slice the salami into rounds or cubes, depending on your preference.
  2. Assemble the Jars: In a clean, sterilized jar, layer the ingredients. Start with a few cubes of cheese, then add salami slices, a sprinkle of herbs, and some pickles and olives. Continue layering until the jar is nearly full, leaving a little space at the top.
  3. Make the Pickling Marinade: In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if using. Adjust the seasoning to taste. This marinade will give the snack jars a delicious tangy and herby flavor.
  4. Add the Marinade: Pour the marinade over the ingredients in each jar, ensuring everything is evenly coated. Seal the jars tightly and gently shake them to distribute the marinade throughout.
  5. Marinate: Place the jars in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours to allow the flavors to meld. For best results, let them marinate for up to 48 hours.
  6. Serve and Enjoy: These snack jars are best enjoyed chilled. When ready to eat, simply grab a fork and dig in! They make an excellent addition to cheese boards, or you can enjoy them straight from the jar.
