Description
Easy charcuterie with all the classics – olives, cheddar, ham, salami, pretzel chips, soft pretzels, and some melta toast
Ingredients
Scale
- 6oz of cheddar cheese
- 1 round cheese of choice – try a soft cheese such as brie with nuts (shown in video) or any other round block of cheese you like.
- 8oz of your choice of deli meat: salami, ham, prosciutto
- 4–6 meat sticks, cut in half
- handful of olives
- handful of gooseberries (or small cherry tomatoes)
- melba toast
- crackers
- pretzel chips
- 6–8 small soft pretzels
- brie, cut into small wedges
- optional garnishing of rosemary sprigs
- optional garnishing of bluerries
Instructions
- Start with the center and work your way outwards toward the perimeter of your charcuterie board. Place the round gouda cheese directly in the center.
- Arrange main items in a straight line outwards (instead of in a circular fashion). Roll salami into roses by overlapping two pieces together and rolling them – hold the shape with a toothpick. Arrange 6-9 of them in a straight line outwards at 2 and 10 o’clock.
- Arrange meat sticks at 12 o’ clock
- Arrange the soft pretzels at 4 and 7 o’ clock
- Arrange the brie and cheddar at 6 o’ clock
- Fill in the spaces with other small items such as olives, gooseberries and blueberries.
- The outermost layer will be melba toast and crackers.
- Prep Time: 15
