I love how Italians often name dishes for how they make you feel, not what’s inside them. For instance, saltimbocca literally means “jump in the mouth”—a perfect name for this dish, because the salty prosciutto and earthy sage make your taste buds jump with joy at every bite. The tiny extra step of sautéing up some asparagus and couscous makes this a complete meal fit for any Roman, not to mention the many Americans who’d like to live like one. Count me in.
