Charcuterie

This February, BPL is hopping on one of the trendiest meal ideas and it’s perfect for a date, right in time for Valentine’s Day! Whether you’re having a girls night in, planning a picnic with your significant other, or making a spread large enough for a whole party, you can’t go wrong with a charcuterie board. For this month’s Quirky Cookbook, we’re highlighting Beautiful Boards: 50 Amazing Snack Boards for Any Occasion by Maegan Brown to help you with all your charcuterie needs. For delicious pairings and beautiful aesthetics, we recommend the recipes Dim Sum Board, Fall Feast Board, and Build-Your-Own Taco Board. Brown has exactly what you need to be an entertaining gamechanger; with specific recipes for birthdays, game nights, and holidays. She also has recipes that would be ideal for smaller settings too. Brown’s recipes have been such a hit, that she went on to write two additional titles with even more mouth-watering charcuterie goodness: Brilliant Bites: 75 Amazing Small Bites for Any Occasion and Spectacular Spreads: 50 Amazing Food Spreads for Any Occasion. All three of these titles have beautiful photos to accompany each recipe and are accompanied by easy-to-follow instructions. Find Brown’s title under the call number “642 Bro” at BPL and let us know what your favorite recipe was!
