I was asked to make a charcuterie board by a friend for her husbands bday… first times! I do a lot of cooking / baking so it’s not too far fetched that she would ask me to do a charcuterie board! I’ve been wanting to do one so here’s my opportunity! Did a lot of googling & found you… it made the difference & gave me the confidence to create my own board! Thanks for sharing your tips & techniques!
Thank you so much for your kind tutorial ❤very sweet lady! I appreciate it. I’ve dabbled in making my own and hope to make plenty more with more style 🎉
I just found this ! I never knew these videos existed. Would love to have made one for the holidays. But , that’s not going to stop me . Iove the way you explain things. Tx.
Just came upon your videos today. Wonderful! I'm a Minnesotan in Belgium now. I do charcuterie boards for Christmas and it is SO nice to learn some new techniques from someone back home! Had me laughing out loud a couple times! I liked all the techniques and the mixing of complex and simple looks. I will definitely be utilizing these! Thank you for posting! And Murray is adorable!
I JUST found you this morning looking for ways to fold charcuterie and am so glad. Thank you! And, kismet that you posted a part 2 just now! After this, I'll be on the hunt for how the hell to actually transport my board for Thanksgiving ...
As far as transporting a small charcuterie board after he has been prepared on the board, I have gone to my local grocery store to the bakery department and ask them to buy a rectangle cake container that they showcase the cakes in in the grocery store, the rectangle charcuterie board should fit white inside that Cake plate, which is plastic. You could wrap the board with plastic wrap several times before you put it in the rectangle cake plate and then transported to your destination. Another tip would be put some tape on each end of the plastic cake platter, this is always worked for me. And if you wrap your prepared charcuterie board several times with the plastic wrap, and then put it in the cake platter you can set it in the backseat of the car and even if it turned over the arrangement you made on your board will not be disturbed.
I am new to your link…What a wonderful tutorial on Charcuterie!! Thank you so much for sharing and keep them coming!! Truly, just wanted to dive into the board!🧀🍇🥖🫒
Thank you so much for this fabulous tutorial. I just ran across your TH-cam page so I’ll be going through your other videos. I did subscribe and shared your video.
Thank you. Love learning the different ways to fold the meats. How many people would this board feed as an appetizer. I will be making my first board for Christmas party, 10-12 people
I was wondering the best way to prepare ahead. I'm going to start prepping tonight but should I cover my board with plastic wrap? How soon will it dry out? My faves are the ribbon and the bouquet 😊
Hi! I would recommend using an air tight container if you are going to prep two days in advance. I like to add a little piece of paper towel to my containers of cheese to help with any excess moisture.
Good ideas,but just to let you know the mini salami,are not to be sliced,they are individual pieces you grab and bite,European style!!! Just for future references!!!
Thank you so much I am learning to do this beautiful dishes . I love cold cuts I know you call it different, but yes it looks elegant and delicious. I am from South American and I love this kind of cuisine I don't know if you called that way but thank again for your teaching 😊🌺🇦🇲
Thanks for this informative video. I've got a question. Due to deadly allergies to pepper, & having pepper spices in the meats, I can only turkey, chicken, garlic sausage, ham, or other types of meat that doesn't have any pepper spices in it. Can you please show us one that doesn't have salami, or pepperoni, etc. that has no pepper spices in it. So no black, white, red, cayenne, paprika sage summer and winter savory, & poultry seasoning.
To figure out my price, I add up all of my costs and multiply is by 3. Fig & Bleu is not a home based business. I work out of a commercial kitchen which licenses, insurance and certificates are needed where I live. I only make TH-cam videos from my home.
I am going to put my first CB soon, I just hope my presentation looks 1/2 as beautiful as this board looks. So creatively put together.
Made my own board from tree in my yard. Can't wait to try all of these ideas .thanks
That sounds awesome!
I learn something new everytime I watch you. Thank you for sharing with us.
I'm so glad! Thanks for watching

I love big Styrofoam coolers! Thankfully its cold enough where I live, that it'll be safe in the car for awhile.

Thank you so much for sharing - I watch a lot of these and you are my absolute favorite!
Wow, thank you! You totally made my day 🥰
The roses look cool but how do your guests eat the salami all rolled up like that? Is one person going to eat the entire rose?
I typically only do roses on 1 or 2 person boards. Each rose would be enough for one person.
Thank you for this video. Very clear explanations! You rock.🎉
Thanks for watching!
Love this video and love your artistry ❤ My favourite is your salami rose 🌹
Thank you so much 😀
Great ideas and way to arrange the meats
❤ all of the techniques

You can do it! No pressure, just have fun with it.
You are a wonderful teacher! Gorgeous video.
Can you please tell me Where you got the greenery and what brand is it? Thank you 😊
“This is looking super phallic…” 😳 Thanks for the humor! 😂

Thank you SOOOO very much for a VERY clear and concise video! Absolutely AMAZING, creative and beautiful! Thank you so very much!
OMG! Persimmons. Who does that? YOU Fig&Bleu! My first video. I love this. Q: have you ever done a board with pickled okra?
Thanks so much! Yes, I have! I did a southern inspired board before.
Good ideas,but just to let you know the mini salami,are not to be sliced,they are individual pieces you grab and bite,European style!!! Just for future references!!!
Good to know!

Beautiful
May we have a grazing table video next? 🥹
I get a lot of requests for this. Sounds like I need to do one lol.
Beautiful, thanks for teaching us!
Thank you 🙏
Do you leave the rose display in the 2 inch cup, or do you remove the cup?
Thank you!
I leave it. It will start to fall apart once the meat comes to room temp if there is no cup to hold it together.
How do you price your boards? Did you need any licenses for your food home-based biz?
To figure out my price, I add up all of my costs and multiply is by 3. Fig & Bleu is not a home based business. I work out of a commercial kitchen which licenses, insurance and certificates are needed where I live. I only make TH-cam videos from my home.
Thank you
When you make a rose out of lunch meat, how does one break into it without feeling bad or destroying the whole thing?
HAHA I hear that so much! You just have to go for it! Also, maybe offer both the rose (mostly for display) and an easy to grab style!
Like a pork garden!!! Deliciosa!!!
Oh yes!
Did she just say what I thought she did at 12:18?! Not what I was expecting to hear, nor wanting to hear!
Gloves, gloves, gloves.
