HOW TO BUILD THE PERFECT✨

CHARCUTERIE BOARD FOR TWO!

 

1. FIND A SERVING BOARD🛒

Finding the perfect board is key! Putting a little extra effort into the presentation makes all the difference.

2. ADD PROTEIN🥩

Feature a variety such as: salami, uncured pepperoni, prosciutto, tofu, soppressata, plant-based meats or add calabrese salami for a spicy element. We recommend two protein options (or more) depending on your preference.

*Tip: You can get small portions cut at the butcher’s counter.

3. ADD CHEESE🧀

Add at least two cheeses (or plant-based cheeses)! We recommend adding 1 soft cheese and 1 hard cheese so your platter has options. You can’t go wrong with any of the below suggestions.

For soft cheese: brie, goat cheese, soft farm cheese, mozzarella, or gorgonzola.

For hard cheese:  gouda, swiss, sharp cheddar, provolone or manchego.

*Tip: Locate the little section of fancy cheeses that are priced per pound in your local grocery store. 

 

4. CROFTER’S ORGANIC FRUIT SPREAD🍓🍑🥭🍒🫐

The secret to adding instant elegance! Spreads add vibrant flavor and a pop of color to your charcuterie board. We recommend using fun flavors like Mango, Morello Cherry, Apricot, Wild Blueberry or Strawberry.

*Tip: Any flavor is a fantastic choice!

5. BREAD OR CRACKERS🥖

Options like sliced french bread, rosemary crackers, buttery crackers, rye, multi-grain crackers, or sourdough work great.

*Tip: Try picking two different shapes, flavors or colors.

 

6. FRUITS & NUTS🍇🥜

We recommend picking 2-3 items so it will add texture to your board. Fruit like strawberries, apples, oranges, grapes, pomegranate arils or berries add rich color to your board. Choose sweet or salty nuts like almonds, pistachios, pecans, or peanuts.

*Tip: Use these items to fill in your board and add dimension.

 

7. INSTAGRAM WORTHY DISPLAY📸

Do it for the gram! For the finishing touch, embellish with fresh herbs like fresh rosemary, thyme or mint because they look great and add some greenery to your board. It also smells good too and will be sure to impress your valentine!
