Roman Picnic

One of my most favorite activities to do in Europe is to go to an outdoor market and buy food for a picnic. The Italian markets are not as good as the French markets but I still managed to find some delicious food while I was in Rome. I bought some sweet provolone, provaolone dolce, which is made from cow's milk and is milder in flavor than provolone piccante. Slices of salami and Italian rolls similar to popovers with a crusty outside and a hollow, chewy inside were also added to the picnic. Finally wild strawberries were bought for dessert. The picnic took place over looking the entire city of Rome on Janiculum Hill.
