Easy Charcuterie Board with Prosciutto Roses


  • Author: Saly
  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Description

A no-cook, elegant charcuterie board featuring rolled prosciutto roses, brie cheese, crackers, and fresh fruit. Perfect for a quick 5pm dinner or appetizer that looks impressive but requires zero mental energy.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 68 oz (170-225g) Prosciutto di Parma, thin slices
  • 8 oz (225g) Brie Cheese wedge
  • 2 cups (150g) Crackers (mix of water crackers and seeded crackers)
  • 1.5 cups (200g) Grapes (red or green, on the vine)
  • 0.5 cup (60g) Marcona Almonds
  • 3 tbsp (45g) Fig Jam
  • 0.5 cup (75g) Black Olives (Kalamata)
  • 1 cup (150g) Strawberries, hulled and halved
  • 2 tbsp (30g) Whole Grain Mustard

Instructions

  1. Prep the Prosciutto Roses: Lay prosciutto slices flat on a clean surface. Roll one slice tightly from end to end like a cigar. Wrap a second slice around the first, fanning the edges out. Repeat to create 8-10 roses.
  2. Place the Cheese: Position the wedge of Brie in the center of the board as the anchor. Cut into quarters or eighths if serving as a meal, or leave whole for presentation.
  3. Scatter the Crackers: Arrange crackers around the cheese, fanning them out and standing some up against the wedge for height. Group water crackers on one side and seeded crackers on the other.
  4. Add Fruits and Nuts: Fill empty spaces with grapes, strawberries, and almonds. Cluster grapes in corners, scatter strawberries near the cheese, and sprinkle almonds loosely around the board.
  5. Add Savory Elements: Place olives and fig jam in small bowls or dollop jam directly on the board. Add mustard in a tiny dish for easy access.
  6. Final Touches: Step back and adjust items to ensure the board looks abundant but not cluttered. Serve immediately.

Notes

Let the brie sit out for 20-30 minutes before serving to allow it to reach room temperature and become gooey. Roll prosciutto tightly to ensure roses hold their shape. For a hot day, freeze grapes an hour before serving for a refreshing contrast.
