Spread about 2 tablespoons of the cheese mixture evenly over the ham. Sprinkle the side closest to you with 2 tablespoons chopped giardiniera and press gently into the cheese. Roll the ham into a pinwheel starting with the edge closest to you and rolling away from you. Repeat for the remaining prosciutto cotto and filling.

Stir in apricots and cook until soft and plumped, about 5 minutes. Add rum; continue to cook and stir until liquid has reduced and a thick syrup has formed, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and set compote aside to cool, about 15 minutes.
• Roll pastry on a floured surface into 2 equal rectangles. Transfer each rectangle onto a sheet of parchment paper. Spread cooled compote onto each rectangle and sprinkle with walnuts. Arrange prosciutto over top, covering compote completely. Roll up each rectangle like a jelly roll, sealing the edge with a dab of water, if needed. Refrigerate until firm, about 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Remove pastry rolls from the refrigerator and slice each into 18 slices. Place slices, cut-sides down, on the prepared baking sheet.

Steps:

• Pound chicken breasts with a meat mallet to 1/4-in. thickness; layer with prosciutto and mozzarella. Roll up chicken from a short side; secure with toothpicks., Place eggs and bread crumbs in separate shallow bowls. Dip chicken in eggs, then roll in crumbs to coat. Cut each chicken breast crosswise into 3 slices; place in a greased 13x9-in. baking dish, cut side down. Refrigerate, covered, overnight., Preheat oven to 350°. Remove chicken from refrigerator; uncover and let stand while oven heats. In a small saucepan, heat butter over medium-high heat. Add shallot and garlic; cook and stir until tender, 1-2 minutes. Add wine. Bring to a boil; cook until liquid is reduced to 1-1/2 cups. Pour over chicken., Bake, uncovered, until a thermometer reads 165°, 30-35 minutes. Discard toothpicks before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°. Unfold one pastry sheet. Spread 2 tablespoons mustard to within 1/2 in. of edges. Sprinkle with 1/2 cup cheese; top with half each of the chopped prosciutto and sage. Roll up jelly-roll style. Using a serrated knife, cut roll crosswise into 18 slices., Place cut side down on a greased baking sheet. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Bake until golden brown, 12-15 minutes. Serve warm. Freeze option: Cover and freeze unbaked rolls on a waxed paper-lined baking sheet until firm. Transfer to resealable plastic freezer bags; return to freezer. To use, let rolls stand at room temperature 10 minutes. Cut and bake pinwheels as directed, increasing time as necessary.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place the pepper in a roasting pan and roast in the oven, checking every 15 minutes, and turning with tongs until the skin is fully wrinkled and charred black. When the peppers is done, use tongs to put it into a ziptop bag which (for safety reasons) you have resting on a plate - (Remember, it is volcanically hot!). Carefully zip the bag shut, and allow the pepper to sweat for 5 minutes. Use oven mitts to prevent getting burned while you handle the bag in the next step of sliding the pepper from the bag into a bowl filled with a couple of inches of ice water. You can then use your fingers to work quickly to slip off and discard the skin of the pepper while it is in the water. You will be left with a beautifully cooked red pepper with a wonderful color. Cut open the pepper and remove seeds. Slice it into strips and set aside.
• Roll out each puff pastry sheet and on the surface of each of the 2 sheets evenly arrange 4 slices of prosciutto ham, 6 spinach leaves, half of the red pepper strips, 1/8-cup Cheddar, and 1 tablespoon Parmesan. Roll up the dough "jelly roll" style into a log (so the cross-section of the roll will be a spiral design, the "pinwheel"). Place the logs in the freezer for 50 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Remove "pinwheel" logs and from freezer and cut into 1/2-inch thick slices and place on a baking sheet. Brush with egg wash. Bake until golden brown, approximately 15 minutes.

Steps:

• Mix the ricotta, rosemary, parmigiano and olive oil in a bowl with a rubber spatula until smooth.
• Lay 2 pieces of prosciutto cotto on a board in front of you lengthwise, overlapping by half and patching holes where needed. Spread about 2 tablespoons of the cheese mixture evenly over the prosciutto. Sprinkle the side closest to you with 2 tablespoons giardiniera and press gently into the cheese. Roll the prosciutto into a pinwheel starting with the edge closest to you, rolling away from you.
• Repeat with the remaining prosciutto and filling. Wrap each roll tightly in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator at least 4 hours to firm up. To serve, unwrap the rolls and slice into 3/4-inch pieces with a sharp knife.

Steps:

• In a bowl combine Gruyère and sage. On a lightly floured surface arrange pastry sheet with a short side facing you and cut in half crosswise. Arrange one half of sheet with a long side facing you and brush edge of far side with some egg. Arrange half of prosciutto evenly on top of pastry, avoiding egg-brushed edge, and top with half of Gruyère mixture. Starting with side nearest you, roll pastry jelly-roll fashion into a log and wrap in wax paper. make another log in same manner. Chill pastry logs, seam sides down, until firm, at least 3 hours, and up to 3 days.
• Preheat oven to 400°F. and lightly grease 2 large baking sheets.
• Cut logs crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick pinwheels and arrange, cut sides down, 1 inch apart on baking sheets. Bake pinwheels in batches in middle of oven until golden, 14 to 16 minutes. Transfer pinwheels to a rack and cool slightly. Serve pinwheels warm.

Steps:

• On a floured work surface, roll out puff pastry to a 10 1/2x15" rectangle, halve lengthwise.
• Top the halves with the prosciutto and Fontina, leaving a 1/2" border along the far edge of each piece. Season with pepper. Starting at the near edge, tightly roll the halves of pastry into logs. Brush the borders with the egg wash and pinch to seal. Transfer the logs to a large baking sheet and freeze for 30 minutes until firm.
• Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper. Working with one log at a time, trim the eneven ends. Cut the log crosswise into 1/4" slices. Set the pinwheels 2" apart on the baking sheets. Freeze until firm. Cut the remaining log, then freeze. The frozen slices can be transferred to a resealable plastic freezer bag and frozen for up to one month.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Bake the frozen pinwheels for 20 minutes on parchment-lined baking sheets for 20 minutes, until golden.

Steps:

• Mix cream cheese spread and mustard until well blended.
• Place 2 of the prosciutto slices, side-by-side, on work surface with long sides overlapping slightly. Top with 2 provolone slices; spread with 2 Tbsp. of the cream cheese mixture. Roll up from 1 of the short sides. Wrap tightly with plastic wrap. Repeat to make a total of 5 rolls. Refrigerate at least 2 hours.
• Cut each roll into 8 slices. Place 1 slice on each cracker.
