SO WHAT IS A CHARCUTERIE BOARD?
A charcuterie board is essentially a meat and cheese board that consists of a variety of meats and cheese along with fruits, nuts, condiments and crackers. They contain a combination of different flavors and textures that equal the perfect no-fuss party snack.
There are so many ways to make a charcuterie board. Adding deli meat roses or salami flowers are a fun way to make them look fancy. These flowers look like roses and are formed with a wine glass. Read on to find out how easy it is to make salami rose with a wine glass. Yes, you read that right. I am using a basic wine glass to create these deli meat flowers.

What You Need To Make Deli Meat Roses:
Cutting board, charcuterie board or platter
Round deli meat: (Round meats work best. I like to use salami or ham)
This presentation will not work with any deli meat that is not cut into a circle. I tested square, as well as sliced deli meat neither, would hold its shape, as well as the circled meat, would.
Assorted Crackers or breads
Assorted Fruits
Gourmet cheeses (choose a variety for everyone’s taste)
Assorted nuts and dried fruits, optional
Condiments (Mayo, mustard, etc) optional
How To Make Charcuterie Board Meat Roses
Layer the circles of meat on top of one another with the first layer having the least amount of slices. My first layer only has three pieces of meat that are overlapping one another.
Layer the second row of meat in between the first three that were laid out. You will end up with about five pieces of meat overlapping.
Continue the same process with the third, fourth, fifth and six-layer will until you have the desired size of a rose. Flip the wine glass and meat over onto your presentation board. Leave the glass in place until you are ready to display your finished presentation. This will help hold the flower together.
When the slices of meat are pulled out of the flower it does not fall apart it will continue to hold its shape until all of the meat is off the board.
When creating your board remember to add layers of crackers, cheese, meats, fruits, and nuts if you would like in order to offer a variety of things on your platter.
