How to Build the Perfect Charcuterie Board

Building the Perfect Board

Here are our best tips on how to build the ultimate board following our Show Us Your Boards Contest with DeLallo Foods!

Our Feedfeed x DeLallo Show Us Your Boards Contest winner Andrea Potischman of @simmerandsauce offers her #1 tip: "Keep it casual and simple! The goal is for your board to draw guests in!"

Say Cheese: Variety is the spice of life! Try finding a combination of aged, firm, semi-firm and crumbly cheeses.

Meat Your Maker: Time to add on a variety of cured meats and salumi! Go from mild to wild with your selection.

Dip it Low: Adding items like olive tapenade, marinated artichoke spread, pesto or fig spread all complement your cheeses and cured meats!

Walk the Brine: Think cured mixed olives, pickled peppers, and roasted tomatoes to add a pop of color and shape!

Get in a Crunch: Try a nice mix of crunchy and soft options to cover all possible combos!

Nuts about Fruit: A combo of fresh and dried fruits allows for color and textural balance. Same with all types of nuts!
