Ingredients

  • 50 grams Prosciutto sliced
  • 100 grams Salami sliced
  • 70 grams Goat Cheese
  • 100 ml Cranberry Sauce
  • 255 grams Grape Tomatoes
  • ¼ cup Walnuts
  • 227 grams Figs 5 to 6
  • 225 grams 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.
