CHARCUTERIE AND CHEESE BOARDS | PARTY FOOD | APPETIZER

Ingredients

• – I like a soft, hard, and savory selection. Think of a great blue (Stilton), brie, Piave, aged cheddar, and Parmesan.
• – A great Prosciutto di Parma and Soppressata, or hard salami are always included in my boards.
• Shortcut – I love the meat wrapped cheese from Fiorucci.
• – Castelvetrano, or a variety of Greek olives
• – Cherries, Apricots and Figs!
• Fresh Fruit. Grapes or apple slices.
• Jams – Fig is my favorite, but I have also used apricot and red raspberry.
• Honey – Drizzle over the blue for an explosion of flavor. For a spicy element, use Mike’s Hot Honey. Or, for a sweet, more fruity flavor, use Orange Blossom Honey!
• Nuts – Do not leave out the nuts. They add a crunchy element that compliments any Charcuterie and Cheese Board. Marcona Almonds and Honey Roasted Cashews are sure winners.
• I also love filling a small bowl with pearl mozzarella balls marinated with olive oil, kosher salt and red pepper flakes.
• Include your favorite Bread or Crackers, or Sliced Baguette.
