How To Build A Vegan Charcuterie Board
There’s some level of method behind the pretty chaos of a bountiful charcuterie-style board. Here are our tips.
Step one
Think of cheeses as your anchors. They need the most space for cutting, and each should get its own knife. Lay them down first.
Step two
Dips and proteins are next. Keep the board looking pretty for longer by pre-slicing your plant-based meat alternatives.
Step three
It’s time to start filling in: Arrange crackers, sliced bread or crostini around the spreadable components of your platter.
Step four
Last, add crunch and colour! We used grapes, tomatoes, figs, snap peas, watermelon radishes and kumquats to complete this board.
