Charcuterie is the art of preparing meats which are often cured or smoked such as bacon, ham or salami. A charcuterie board is commonly seen on menus pretty much everywhere these days and it’s the perfect way to enjoy some nibbles with friends and family! It’s very easy to prepare a charcuterie and you can find absolutely everything you need at Walmart! If you’d prefer, Walmart also has a great selection of plates to create the perfect Charcuterie platter! As you begin thinking about making the perfect charcuterie board, you will want to start thinking about different colors and textures to make it vibrant and interesting. Red and black berries, dried apricots, fresh herbs, pickles, olives and various dips can add lots of color.
The board should look full, don’t be afraid to pile and stack them while thinking about varying the different items throughout. Meat: I estimate about 3-4 slices of meat per person when building a board. I try to include a variety of flavors and textures for example a sliced pepper salami, a rolled prosciutto and thoughtfully piled ham. 1 or 2 oz per person as an hors d’oeuvre.
