Neal's Yard Stilcheton http://www.nealsyarddairy.co.uk/cheeses.html
Okay, not a new discovery, but a favorite non-the-less. I love the earthy, creamy, pungency of this unpasteurized cheese, especially when paired with pears, fig jam, candied pecans, and rosemary in a puff-pastry tart.
Prosciutto di Parma Rotundo Dolce
Holy melt-in-your-mouth, fatty, porky goodness, Batman! This is hands-down one of the best prosciuttos I've ever encountered, with a memorably sweet, yet still subtle finish.
Salumeria Biellese - Petit Jesu http://www.salumeriabiellese.com/cured_pork.html#Petit_Jesu
I'll heartily celebrate the birth of this winey, garlicky, course-ground salami from Brooklyn's venerable Salumeria Biellese for years to come!
Philly foodies can find the above at DiBruno Bros. Fair warning, at over $30 a pound, these goodies ain't cheap. Trust me. They're well worth the price.
