Ingredients
  

  • 3 types of deli meats (e.g., salami, prosciutto, turkey)
  • 2 varieties of cheese (e.g., aged cheddar, brie)
  • 1 cup assorted seasonal fruits (e.g., cranberries, grapes, sliced apples)
  • 1/2 cup mixed nuts (e.g., almonds, walnuts)
  • 1/4 cup olives
  • 1/2 cup crackers or breadsticks
  • Fresh herbs for garnish (e.g., rosemary, thyme)

Method
 

  1. Select a large wooden board or platter to start.
  2. Arrange the deli meats in a circular pattern, fanning them out attractively.
  3. Place the varieties of cheese in separate sections for flavor contrast.
  4. Scatter the assorted seasonal fruits over and between the meats and cheeses.
  5. Add small bowls filled with mixed nuts and olives to the board.
  6. Arrange crackers or breadsticks around the edges for texture.

Notes

  • For a sweeter touch, add honey or jam beside the cheeses. Use seasonal fruits that are fresh and in season for best results. Charcuterie boards can be customized to dietary preferences easily.
