Ingredients
  • 10 slices saucisson sec salami
  • 4 ounces Brie
  • 4 ounces Stilton
  • 4 ounces Wensleydale with cranberries
  • 5 slices prosciutto di speck
  • 5 slices bresaola
  • 6 wholegrain crackers
  • 6 date and walnut toasts
  • ⅓ cup pecan nuts
  • 1 cup strawberries
  • 4 ounces red grapes
  • 2 figs
  • ⅓ cup chocolate truffles
  • ⅓ cup chocolate hearts
  • ⅓ cup candy hearts
Directions
  1. To build this charcuterie board, start by forming the salami rose. To do this, fold 10 slices of salami in half over the lip of an egg cup or shot glass, making sure that each slice overlaps the last. Then, turn the cup or glass over to reveal your salami rose.
  2. To begin compiling the board, place the 3 cheeses in different sections of the board to act as anchors. These can be served whole, in slices, fanned out, or crumbled.
  3. After this, arrange the meats, including the salami rose, and the large starches onto the board. Make sure to avoid placing like things next to like things.
  4. Then, add the fruits, nuts and finally, the candies to the board. The smaller items are useful for filling in any remaining gaps.
  5. Serve this board with cheese knives, little plates, and if you are feeling extra romantic, some red roses and wine.
