Notes
- Take these ingredients as a guide only. You can add what you like or omit what you don’t but make sure to take into consideration the taste of your guests.
- I recommend reading the full post for detailed information on how to make the best cheese board.
- Cheese – try using different textures – soft, hard, blue cheese. 3-4 types will be plenty!
- Some fruits and veggies can be used as dippers as well (carrots, apples, celery, bell peppers).
- If you decide to serve olive oil with your board, make sure to serve it alongside fresh French baguette.
- Use toothpicks, party picks or forks so that the guests don’t need to use fingers.
