Saltimbocca alla Romana in Rome

What it is

Thin veal cutlet wrapped with prosciutto and sage, cooked in butter and white wine.

Taste translation

If you like tender meat with savory, buttery flavors, this is elegant and easy to love.

Zen's note

The name literally means ‘jumps in your mouth.’ It’s not as famous as the pastas but every Roman trattoria does it and it’s always good.
