What’s a Charcuterie Board?
A charcuterie board is a presentation of appetizers served on a board or slab for maximum sharing. You might have seen them trending on social media and at social events and if you haven’t, now’s the time to try one out!
A great place to start is to find a board that is long and wide enough to accommodate the amount of food you plan to use. Next, choose a perfect centerpiece or centerpieces like Jackpot’s Wine Glass Jewelry Candles, put them in place, and then start placing your snacks in a symmetrical or artistic pattern until the board is full.
Charcuterie boards are great for any event because they give you the flexibility to meet special dietary needs or to prepare for guests on a budget. Listed below are finger foods to include:
Those are just a few common elements to a great charcuterie board. Don’t be afraid to get creative! Remember that cheeses pair well with everything so there should be a lot on the board. Also, you can make your board extra special with a theme like fall flavors or a color scheme and include other decorations like fresh herbs.
