Method
- Choose Your Board & Theme. Start with a wooden board, marble slab, or even a heart-shaped tray like I’ve used to match the theme.
- Prepare Your Cheeses & Meats. To create these beautiful Bologna roses, simply slice 4-5 slices of each of the Seltzers Traditional Lebanon Bologna and Sweet Lebanon Bologna in half and layer 8 to 10 of those halves over each other in a straight line. Then simply roll from one into the other, creating a beautiful spiral shape. Then fan out the edges to mimic petals and then to keep the rose together, use a decorative appetizer skewer, and set aside, ready to add to the board.
- Slice each of the Royal Hollandia cheeses into fun little shapes and sizes.
- Pour each of the International Collection oils into ramekins.
- Arrange with Love: Simply add each of our prepared charcuterie ingredients onto your board, starting with the larger items like the crackers and the cheese, followed by the meats and oils.
- Finally, add fruits and nuts of choice (I used strawberries and almonds) and fresh herbs like rosemary for a polished look.
- Serve and Enjoy! Pair your board with a glass of rosé, champagne, or a cozy mug of hot cocoa for the ultimate Valentine’s treat.
