What does Charcuterie mean?
Charcuterie is the art of preparing meats which are often cured or smoked such as bacon, ham, or salami.
Charcuterie boards usually include cured meats, cheeses, and a variety of dried fruits and nuts to complement them.
How to build a Keto Charcuterie Board
Use a large plate, cheese board, platter, or wooden cutting board.
Meat: Use a variety of meats when you build your keto charcuterie board. Branch out and try something new!
Cheese: Use soft and hard. cheeses. We like to serve the cheese in slices or cubes. A dish of blue cheese crumbles adds a sharp, tangy, savory zing.
Cheese Crisps and Pork Rinds: You can use sliced keto breads, keto crackers, keto cheese crisps, and/or pork rinds.
Fruit & Nuts: Fresh fruit like berries work best on keto. Check out our simple keto fruit guide for a list of keto friendly fruits. For the nuts, make sure they're salted. Avoid high carb nuts like cashews and pistachios. Sometimes we like adding our keto candied pecans for a sweet & salty mix.
Pickles, Olives, and Dips: Use your favorite pickles, olives, and favorite keto dips, to keep your charcuterie board low carb. We've included links below to some favorite keto dips. Also, try adding our crisp cucumber salsa.
Chocolate and sweets: Sometimes we add a keto friendly chocolate or dried cranberries, to pair with the cheese.
Most of these ingredients can be found pre-packaged at your local grocery store.
