We all know how trendy the charcuterie board has been the past couple of years, and we are still here for it. As it's summer, I created this refreshing, juicy, and savory board that you can snack on all day. This simple board is packed with vibrant colors and tangy flavors of grapefruits, oranges, and blood oranges. Add some crisp white wine, and you have a summer happy hour with friends that will put a smile on anyone’s face.


Summertime Citrus, Mozzarella and Prosciutto Charcuterie Board

How to Make a Charcuterie Board:

Creating any type of board from scratch can be intimidating and I have learned to go with the flow. There is no right or wrong way to assemble it, but there are couple of things that I like to do that help create texture and flow throughout a board.


Slice: Create dimensional flow through the board by slicing your items in different ways, or even leave some ingredients whole.


Layer: I like to layer each item, meaning lay some citrus down on the bottom and then add another item like prosciutto on top followed by a couple of blood orange wedges mixed in. It’s the textures and layers that achieve that complex look.


Garnish: This is the step that I never skip. Style up your board with finishing touches like themed props, flowers, fresh herbs, spices, nuts, etc.


Ingredients

1 tablespoon Olive Oil

1 tablespoon Grapefruit Balsamic Vinegar

2 grapefruits

2 blood oranges

2 seedless oranges

1 (8oz.) ball of fresh mozzarella, sliced

Fresh black pepper


Directions
  1. Cut up all your fruit and mozzarella.

  2. Take each slice of prosciutto and bunch it up.

  3. Start to put your board together ingredient by ingredient, then top your mozzarella with fresh black pepper, olive oil and balsamic vinegar.

  4. Serve immediately.

  5. Feel free to serve alongside crackers and other cheeses depending on your type of gathering and the rest of your menu.
