Pretty simple, when you think of it like that, right!? The art of the cheese plate is one I've been exploring lately, although the \"rules\" are more like suggestions\/guidelines, and there is <em>so much room<\/em> for creativity and expansion. For this cheese plate, I included two La Terra Fina Dips: <a href=\"http:\/\/laterrafina.com\/products\/lemon-pepper-asiago-dip-spread\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Lemon Pepper &amp; Asiago<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/laterrafina.com\/products\/spicy-green-chile-cheese-dip-spread\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Spicy Green Chile &amp; Cheese<\/a>. They were a hit at the party I took this plate to - spicy green chile really <em>is<\/em> deliciously spicy, and both are full of creamy, cheesy goodness. I'm a big fan!<\/p>\n<p>Here is my basic anatomy of a cheese plate:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>3-6 types of cheese, varying in texture\/flavor (some mild, some stinky, some hard, some soft)<\/li>\n<li>2-4 kinds of fresh or dried fruit<\/li>\n<li>2-3 types of nuts<\/li>\n<li>2-3 pickled\/brined things (olives, pickled asparagus, pickles, etc.)<\/li>\n<li>1-2 delicious dips (e.g. <a href=\"http:\/\/laterrafina.com\/product-type\/classic-dips-spreads\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">La Terra Fina Lemon Pepper &amp; Asiago<\/a>)<\/li>\n<li>1-2 delicious spreads (e.g. jam (fig, onion, fruit), mustard, etc.)<\/li>\n<li>4-6 kinds of vehicles: crackers, breads, etc.<\/li>\n<li>3-5 kinds of cured meat (optional)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11734\" src=\"https:\/\/thekitchenpaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/cheese-plate-12.jpg\" alt=\"How To Assemble a Cheese Plate | thekitchenpaper.com\" width=\"780\" height=\"988\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thekitchenpaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/cheese-plate-12.jpg 780w, https:\/\/thekitchenpaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/cheese-plate-12-600x760.jpg 600w, https:\/\/thekitchenpaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/cheese-plate-12-474x600.jpg 474w, https:\/\/thekitchenpaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/cheese-plate-12-768x973.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 780px) 100vw, 780px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I know that's a long list, but I think variety is key! You don't need a TON of any one thing, but having a little bit of <em>everything<\/em> makes it fun for the consumer. The keystones here really are cheese\/dips: if you took away everything but the vehicles (crackers\/bread) and cheese\/dip, it'd still be delicious. Start with those!<\/p>\n<p>As for the actual art of assembling in a pretty way: think about a variety of shapes! Cut some cheese into triangles, some to strips, leave some in the wedge, etc. You can fold sliced meat into halves or quarters, slice some\/leave some unsliced, or put it in a bowl. As mentioned above, cheese\/dips are the main focus here, so place those on your tray (I use a baking sheet) first. Spread them out enough so they have their own distinct area, and then fill them in with the fruits, nuts, pickles, vehicles, meat, etc. so that there's good variety around each kind of cheese.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11745\" src=\"https:\/\/thekitchenpaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/cheese-plate-11.jpg\" alt=\"How To Assemble a Cheese Plate | thekitchenpaper.com\" width=\"780\" height=\"1038\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thekitchenpaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/cheese-plate-11.jpg 780w, https:\/\/thekitchenpaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/cheese-plate-11-360x479.jpg 360w, https:\/\/thekitchenpaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/cheese-plate-11-180x240.jpg 180w, https:\/\/thekitchenpaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/cheese-plate-11-720x958.jpg 720w, https:\/\/thekitchenpaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/cheese-plate-11-451x600.jpg 451w, https:\/\/thekitchenpaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/cheese-plate-11-768x1022.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thekitchenpaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/cheese-plate-11-769x1024.jpg 769w, https:\/\/thekitchenpaper.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/cheese-plate-11-600x798.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 780px) 100vw, 780px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Really, that's it!
