Ingredients

Cheeses

  • Brie cheese wheel
  • Gouda cheese cubed
  • Blue Cheese crumbles

Meats

  • Prosciutto
  • Genoa Salami

Fruit & Nuts

  • Cashews
  • Pistachios
  • Green Grapes (bunches)
  • Dried Figs

Other:

Instructions

  • Position brie wheel off-center on your serving board as the anchor point.
  • Arrange cubed gouda and crumbled blue cheese in separate sections around the board.
  • Roll prosciutto into cylinders and create salami roses, placing them throughout the arrangement.
  • To make salami roses: Fold a slice of salami in half, then in half again to form a quarter circle. Repeat with 4–5 more slices, overlapping each one slightly around the rim of a small wine glass. Flip the glass over onto the board and gently remove. the salami will hold its rose shape.
  • Scatter cashews and pistachios in gaps between other ingredients or add them to small ramekins like I did.
  • Add small grape clusters and dried figs in corners and empty spaces.
  • Place fig jam in a small bowl on the board near the cheeses.
  • Fan crackers around the board in different areas, mixing up the positioning for easy access.
