  • Choose a large cutting board or platter to use for charcuterie. (Or a medium-sized board plus additional plates or bowls.)

 

  • Prepare ingredients for charcuterie board as needed: prep or cook any homemade recipes, slice cheese into squares, roll sliced meats if desired, cut vegetables for snacking.

 

  • Begin assembling board with any items that need to be served in small bowls—like dips and spreads, or brined items like olives.

 

  • Next, arrange cheeses and meats on board in desired pattern. (It’s okay to adjust them as you go!)

 

  • Layer on crackers or breads, along with fruits and vegetables.

 

  • Finally, add nuts and seeds to board in small piles (or small bowls).

 

  • Finish board with fresh herb sprigs, a crack of black pepper, and any desired garnishes.
