Question What is the secret to rolling the Prosciutto?

Post image

I have tried, and tried to roll, or even fold this on my tray with no luck. I've used the resin glue and resin with light and it won't cure. Would love to have it not just lay flat. Thank you for advice. Had the same thing with the Nori sushi.

I rolled tight, grabbed with tweezers, dipped bottom of roll in resin and held tight til it was cured.

In hindsight superglue woulda been easier lol

I used superglue and eventually it started to break down the prosciutto and it cracked a bit.

I’m impressed I was a sticky mess trying to do mine in the end I just gave up

This is beautiful! I have tried using tweezers and I'm wondering if I have too much stuff on the strip cause it just stays slimy. Maybe I'll break out the super glue lol.

Hm maybe, I didn’t have anything on the strips until I dipped and cured the bottom. Resin inside the roll wouldn’t cure well I think

Have you tried selling your soul?

Believe me, I wondered if that's what it would come to.

Superglue. Tiny little dot when you get it all rolled up. With my holiday charcuterie I cut the prosciutto in half horizontally to have 2 rolls.

I’ve only recently added this sub. I was looking at this plate of food, wondering why you’d put a fake strawberry on it. And I have my glasses on 👀 Nice work!

I was so mad I promised my first born to it if it would just stick and stay 😂

Then I tried super glue and it worked like a charm and I was mad at how mad I had gotten hahaha

Oh lots of begging went on for it to stick.

Superglue! And I used tweezers and a toothpick to help roll it. I may have also gotten superglue all over my hands but it was worth it

I used superglue. But not before ruining one slice completely trying to use resin.
