EASY STEPS to create your own cheese board...

1. Pick a Board

Choose a board that reflects
the size and theme of your gathering.

•  Wood cutting board
•  Marble slab
•  Piece of slate
•  Even a serving platter works
•  Get creative!

2. Add Cheese

Look for a variety of milk sources, textures, flavors, colors and shapes.

•  Arrange your cheese clockwise from soft to firm.
•  Try to include a cow's milk, ... sheep milk, and goat milk ... cheese.

3. Add Salt

Pick three of your favorite salty foods to add to your cheese board.

•  Marcona almonds or pistachios
•  Salami, soppressata or prosciutto
•  Assorted olives
•  Pickled gerkins

4. Add Sweet

Fresh and dried fruits are a great way to break up rich and salty foods. 

• Dried apricots or cranberries
• Fresh berries and grapes
• Freshly sliced apples and pears

5. Add Bread

Give your guests a variety of crunchy crackers and breads.

•  Classic Carr’s table water crackers
•  Stew Leonard’s fresh baked crostini
•  Fresh baguette from our own
   Bethy’s Bakery

6. Add Spread

Place small bowls within your platter to add flavor and texture.

•  Stew Leonard’s Local Honey
•  Whole grain mustard
•  Fruit preserves

7. Pick A Wine

General Rule of Thumb

• Creamy cheeses with creamy whites or sparkling wines, like Brie and
Champagne.
• Hard, savory cheeses with fruit-forward red wines, like Cheddar and Zinfandel. 
• Soft, fresh cheeses with light whites like Goat Cheese and Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot.
