This sweet-savory charcuterie board has the perfect mix of flavors. Cheese and crackers are delicious paired with a mix of fresh and dried fruits — even chocolate! Lay crackers and sliced fruit and cheese in a mix of serpentine shapes and fill in the gaps with smaller items like nuts, berries and candies.
Never underestimate the simple satisfaction of a solo charcuterie board. Treat yo'self to a glass of wine and the easiest supper in the world with some torn baguette, cheese, pickles and schmears of your favorite sauces. The possibilities are endless.
Vegans can enjoy charcuterie too — in the form of crudité. Literally taste the rainbow with this all-veggie and hummus board. Cut veggies into bite-sized pieces and leave washed, trimmed stems on for some added rustic charm. We love the unexpected pops of color from the purple cauliflower and watermelon radish.
This gorgeous cheese board highlights soft cheeses. There's no need to slice, simply insert cheese spreaders and you're good to go. Fun fact: fig jam and honey pair amazingly with many cheeses. Place small pots of the sweet sauces throughout for a sweet-savory mouthful. The addition of greenery and colorful fruit makes this board perfect for your centerpiece. Try picking a standout color and include several items in the color. The oranges, dried persimmons and apricots make this cheery and inviting and give the board a unifying theme.
Grilled toasty bread is the highlight of this charcuterie board. Try brushing slices of baguette with olive oil and rub with peeled garlic cloves before tossing on the grill for extra flavor. Place bowls of colorful and tasty accoutrements, like pesto, tomato and romesco sauce along with meats, cheeses and grilled veggies for garnish. This board makes for a meal that is hearty and delicious.
