How To Assemble a Charcuterie Board Like a Pro Food Stylist

The holidays are upon us and it is time to entertain guests.
Every good gathering needs a charcuterie board. So how do you create the perfect one?
Here are some tips
Be creative with your surface. It doesn’t have to be a wooden board.
Pick a star ingredient. This is the focal point of the board. Could be a cheese or a dip.
Balance your flavors.
Don’t cut up your cheeses. Keeping your cheeses mostly whole preserves the flavor longer.
Variety.
Dress up the table that you are placing the charcuterie board on.

What is your ‘go-to’ food or beverage when entertaining guests?
