5 Steps to a Perfect Charcuterie Board
- Start with the cheese. Choose three varieties, such as creamy brie, sharp cheddar, and aged gouda.

- Bring in the crunch. Arrange sourdough crostini, crackers, and breadsticks around the board.
- Add something fresh and sweet. Fill the spaces with grapes, berries, figs, nuts, olives, and a little honey or jam.
- Finish with the details. Add fresh rosemary, small serving knives, and bowls for dips or spreads.
