How to arrange a charcuterie board

  1. I always start with the center of the board, with a “center star” food item. For this board, I made a plate of cut-out heart slices of cheese and whole grain bread, and rolled ham slices.
  2. Fill the open spaces with the remaining foods.
  3. Always put small messy food items in a small dish (ie, pickles).
