Pairing savory and sweet ingredients is a simple yet sophisticated way to create a dish that satisfies a variety of palates. The contrast between the creamy, rich burrata and the bright, juicy sweetness of peaches is a delightful example of how opposites attract on the plate. This Peach and Burrata Charcuterie Board brings these flavors together, along with the savory depth of prosciutto and the vibrant touch of cherries and olives, resulting in a composition that’s as beautiful as it is delicious.
The inspiration behind this board is to take familiar ingredients and present them in a way that feels fresh and unexpected. Each element, from the plump, soaked cherries to the drizzle of honey and olive oil, plays a role in balancing the sweet with the savory, creating a harmonious experience for anyone lucky enough to share in it.
Whether you’re enjoying this board with a glass of wine on a quiet evening or sharing it with friends, it’s the kind of simple, thoughtful preparation that elevates the everyday into something special.

Method:

Arrange the Peaches and Burrata: Start by placing the sliced peaches and torn burrata on your board. For a visually appealing look, consider arranging them in a wave pattern that echoes the natural curves of your Studio Badge board.
-
Add the Prosciutto: Roll the prosciutto and nestle it alongside the peaches and burrata, allowing the colors and textures to complement one another.
-
Prepare the Cherries and Olives: After soaking the cherries, skewer each one with an olive. Place these along the board to add a pop of color and a briny counterpoint to the sweetness of the peaches.
