Steps:
- Preheat oven to 250 degrees.
- Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Prepare an ice-water bath. Add haricots verts and cook until tender-crisp. Drain and immediately transfer to ice-water bath until cool. Drain and place in a refrigerator until chilled.
- Place 4 slices proscuitto on a parchment-lined baking sheet; bake until just crisp, 10 to 15 minutes. Set aside.
- In the bowl of a food processor or in a mortar and pestle mash together roasted garlic and mustard. Transfer to a small bowl and whisk in sherry and red-wine vinegars until smooth. Slowly whisk in olive oil; season with salt and pepper and set vinaigrette aside.
- In a medium bowl, toss together frisee, parsley, basil, and haricot verts. Drizzle with enough vinaigrette to coat.
- Lay 8 of the remaining slices of proscuitto on a flat surface. Cut remaining 4 slices in half lengthwise, and slightly overlap each slice over the 8 whole slices to increase their width. Divide the salad into 8 equal portions and place each portion in the center of one end of each piece of proscuitto, allowing at least 1 inch of the salad mixture to protrude from each of the short ends. Gently and tightly roll the proscuitto so that it fully encloses the salad.
- Slice each proscuitto roll into thirds and serve with crisped proscuitto, roasted tomatoes, and Parmesan.
FARRO SALAD WITH TOMATOES AND ROMANO BEANS
If you are unfamiliar with farro, here's a primer: Farro is a whole wheat berry with a complex, nutty taste and a hearty texture. In cooking you can use it interchangeably with spelt or wheat berries, though farro is sometimes softer than spelt or wheat berries when cooked. Cook the grains in at least 3 times their volume of salted water or stock for 50 minutes, or until some of the grains begin to splay. Turn off the heat and allow to sit for 15 to 30 minutes, then drain. A cup of uncooked farro will yield three cups cooked.

Steps:
- In a large bowl combine the farro and tomatoes.
- Whisk together the lemon juice, vinegar, mustard, garlic, salt, pepper, and olive oil. Toss with the farro and tomatoes and set aside.
- Bring a pot of water to a boil, and fill a bowl with ice water. When the water comes to a boil, add a generous amount of salt and add the green beans. Cook 4 to 5 minutes, until just tender. Transfer to the ice water, then drain. Dry on paper towels.
- Shortly before serving, add the beans to the farro mixture, along with the chopped herbs. Toss together, taste and adjust seasoning. Sprinkle the goat cheese over the top and serve.
