Summer Charcuterie Board

 

Equipment:

Wooden cutting board, slate board, serving platter, tray, or sheet pan for serving

Small dishes such as cups, ramekins, or candy dishes

Mini utensils including forks, spoons, tongs, and spreaders

Ingredients:

2 Oz. cheese per person, at least three varieties of different textures, cut into small slices or squares - Brie, smoked Gouda, Cheddar, and Colby Jack. 

1 to 2 Oz. meat per person, cut into small slices - cured turkey, ham, salami, and roast beef. 

1.5 lbs seedless grapes, washed and removed from the stem 

1.5 lbs fresh cherry tomatoes

4 peaches or oranges - sliced.

2 types of jam or marmalade 

2 types of crackers - like rosemary and sesame oat crackers.

Fresh herbs for garnishing and filling gaps, rosemary, sage, and thyme.

Directions:

Start by adding elements that anchor your Charcuterie board like the small dishes and the cheeses.

Make sure cheeses are cut into small bite-sized slices or pieces.

Add fruit, veggies, and meats around the cheeses. 

Create pockets of sliced fruits and grapes and arrange the sliced meat in little stacks.

Fill in with your crackers, arranging them so they are easy for guests to grab.

Add spreads or dips to your containers, and fill gaps with fresh herbs and fruit pieces.

Add small utensils, mini forks, spoons, tongs, and spreaders for cheeses, meats, and spreads or dips. Enjoy!
