CONTRAST IS KEY Obviously, flavor is important, but don’t forget texture. Every great charcuterie board offers options to build a complex sensory experience with
every bite. Crunchy crackers and croutons, creamy Gouda and goat cheese, spicy pastrami, hot peppers, cooling cream cheese and fresh veggies, sweet fruits and jams, salty nuts, sinus-clearing Dijon mustard, tangy olives and pickles — the options are endless. Make it your own, and make it exciting and fun with plenty of contrast.
ZHUZH IT UP Looking for that little extra wow? transform your board from everyday to oo-la-la with herbal garnishes. Fresh, colorful aromatics lift your presentation to that next level, and they smell good too! Bright green sprigs of rosemary, thyme, mint, lavender, or basil leaves poking out here and there, filling the spaces and celebrating the bountiful display of yummies, are the cherry on top! Mmmmm, come to think of it, fresh cherries are a great idea too!
