Instructions

  1. Wash the Hokkaido pumpkin, cut in half, and scoop out the seeds. Cut into 8-10 wedges.
  2. Line a baking tray with baking paper and place the pumpkin wedges on it. Brush lightly with olive oil on both sides and season with salt and pepper on both sides. Bake in a preheated fan-assisted oven at 180°C (356°F) on the high shelf for 10 minutes.
  3. Turn the wedges and bake for another 5 minutes.
  4. Remove the tray from the oven. Wrap each pumpkin wedge in a slice of Parma ham and secure with a wooden toothpick. Return the tray to the oven and bake for 2-3 minutes.
  5. Remove the tray from the oven and arrange the tapas on a plate. Garnish with basil leaves and drizzle with crema di balsamic vinegar. Serve while still lukewarm.

About Editorial Staff

The Boss Kitchen editorial staff oversees content review, fact-checking, and recipe verification across the site. Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
