Step 1

Use the amounts as a general guideline since the size of your board will dictate how much you can fit. A large board (at least 12x18") is recommended.

Step 2

Slice 1/3 of the baguette and lightly brush with olive oil. Toast the pieces for a few minutes. Arrange the toasted pieces and whole baguette in the center of the board as the centerpiece.

Step 3

Place olives, jams, pickles, and honey into small bowls or dishes so that they don't leak onto the ingredients and board. Slice at least half of the hard cheeses to make it easier for your guests.

Step 4

Place the brie cheese next to the fig jam and pears. Form the prosciutto into flower shapes, fold or roll the salami and bresaola to give height, and arrange them in sections on all sides of the board. The remaining ingredients can be spread around the baguette centerpiece on both sides.

Step 5

Place cutters and spreading tools around the board so that it is easy for guests to serve themselves.

Step 6

To make the board more festive garnish with rosemary or other herbs. Enjoy!
