# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • You can swap almost anything based on what looks best at the market and it will still be impressive.
  • The homemade herb dip is a secret weapon—people always ask what’s in it, and it truly makes the board pop.
02 -
  • If you don’t pat dry your vegetables before plating, extra moisture will make the cheeses a bit soggy by the end of the evening.
  • Letting the cheeses warm up on the counter for at least thirty minutes before serving reveals flavors you’d otherwise miss.
03 -
  • Completely dry your veggies and herbs before plating to prevent sogginess and ensure the cheese stays fresh and appealing.
  • The secret to a memorable dip is grating the garlic superfine—you want it to perfume, not overpower.
