Holiday Cheese Board
Cheese and charcuterie boards are EASIER than you think. The trick to making the most beautiful Holiday cheese board is to use lots of different colours, textures, and shapes.
Ingredients
- 20 slices of genoa salami or any
- a wheel of Castello’s pineapple cream cheese
- blue cheese in the shape of a triangle
- ½ a small wheel regular brie cheese
- ½ small wheel extra creamy brie
- 1 cup cubed Havarti
- 1 cup cubed cheddar
- any crisps or crackers you like
- green grapes + red grapes
- any jam or jelly you like I used fig jam
- olives of choice
- few figs that I cut in half
- pack of golden berries
- pomegranate seeds
- grapefruit slices
- hazelnuts or any nuts
- sprigs of Rosemary for presentation
Instructions
- Take a glass and start arranging the salami in a circle, flip it over to form a rose and place it in the middle. Add the pineapple cream cheese on the bottom and the blue cheese on the opposite side. You can break up the Blue cheese if you wish in the front.
- Cut the brie into triangles and arrange it on each side of the rose.
- Cube the tickler cheese and havarti and place them on opposite sides of each other. Take the crisps and place them in between the salami rose and cream cheese, you can now start to fill in the blanks with the rest of your ingredients in the order that I listed them in.
- Add the green and grapes opposite sides of each other as well as the two small jars of jam.
- Place a little bowl of olives between the salami rose and tickler and cut up the figs and add them at the top of the plate or board.
- The rest of the fillings you can add anywhere that you love and fill in any blanks you have. Try to be creative and use Ingredients that you love. Enjoy.
Notes
All the extras like nuts, golden berries, pomegranate, figs, grapefruit can be substituted for anything you like.
You can use almonds, pistachios, strawberries, orange slices, or anything you desire. You don’t have to follow the fillings I used you can absolutely choose your own.
