Equipment
Ingredients
- 2 oz Prosciutto sliced
- 7 oz Salami sliced
- 2 ¼ oz Goat Cheese
- ⅓ cup Cranberry Sauce
- 8½ oz Grape Tomatoes
- ¼ cup Walnuts
- 8 oz Figs 5 to 6
- 8 oz Vegetable Crackers
Instructions
- To make the salami rossettes, I used a glass with an opening of about 2 inches and layered the salami all the way around. Then turned the glass upside down and pressed it gently onto the wooden cutting board to release the rosette.
- Place the rosettes one opposite the other. Spread some goat cheese on the charcuterie board close to the salami rosette and top it with cranberry sauce or jam.
- Quarter the figs and lay them in the corners of the charcuterie board. Place the vegetable crackers in the middle in the shape of an S.
- Roll up prosciutto and place on either side of the crackers with more figs arranged in the curve of the S.
- Arrange grape tomatoes and walnuts throughout the charcuterie board.
