Ingredients :
- 1 wheel brie
- 1 wedge Manchego
- 1 wedge Roquefort blue cheese
- 1 wedge Parmesan cheese preferably aged Parmigiano-Reggiano
- 4 ounces Cheddar cheese
- butter softened
- fresh honeycomb
- fig jam
- wholegrain mustard
- red grapes
- apple slices a mix of red and green
- cherries or berries
- cucumbers sliced
- carrot slices heirloom if possible
- olives and cornichons
- Marcona almonds or other nuts
- toasted baguette slices
- flatbread crackers or pretzels
- fresh herbs
Directions :
- Select your board, then create an anchor point on the center with something you’d like to have the spotlight (a wheel of Brie works well).
- Using bowls or cups of jams, mustards, cherries, and/or olives, create four more anchor points in the quadrants of your board.
- Using your desired cheeses, fruits, and other ingredients, fill in the gaps from one corner to the center, then around the edges.
- Repeat in all four quadrants. Layer and overlap when needed; step back to view the board from afar to spot any slim spots.
- Fill in the gaps with crackers, toasted baguette slices, and nuts. Garnish with herbs, and tuck in forks, spreaders, tongs, and other utensils where needed.
