British Wagyu Charcuterie Board for Two with an 80g Bresaola Pack

A charcuterie board can be planned around one 80g sliced-bresaola pack, but it is the combined bread, vegetables and cheese that make a fuller sharing plate. The pack's 80g is a purchase amount, not a nutrition or appetite promise for two diners.

Board components

• 1 sliced bresaola pack, listed at 80g
• 80g cheese, chosen after a milk-allergen check
• 100g cherry tomatoes
• 1 small cucumber
• 4 small slices of bread or crackers, checked for wheat and other allergens
• Olives or pickles, optional

The bresaola listing buys one chilled 80g pack. Every other component is a separate purchase.

Assemble safely

1. Read the received bresaola label. Confirm ready-to-eat status, use-by date, required temperature and once-opened storage. Do not use catalogue prose in place of these directions.
2. Wash and dry vegetables on a clean board; slice cheese and bread with utensils that have not contacted raw meat.
3. Open the chilled bresaola close to serving. Separate slices gently and arrange them beside, rather than under, wet vegetables.
4. Serve under the pack's temperature directions. Refrigerate or discard opened leftovers according to its label; do not assume a room-temperature display window.

Balance the 80g pack across two plates

If two people are sharing, divide the sliced beef evenly and let the cheese, bread and vegetables provide the rest of the board. Keep the bresaola visible rather than burying it under other ingredients. Use separate small bowls for wet olives or pickles so their liquid does not soak the slices or crackers. The planned amounts are a shopping guide; they do not guarantee a meal size for every appetite.

Check serving status and allergens

Only serve the bresaola without further cooking if the received label confirms it is ready to eat. Check its use-by date, storage temperature, ingredients and once-opened directions. If those details are unclear, ask the seller before preparing a cold board. Cheese contains milk; bread and crackers may contain wheat, sesame or other allergens, while pickles can add mustard or sulphites. Read each actual label for the diners at the table.

Prepare clean vegetables and dry crackers before opening the chilled pack. Bring the board out close to serving and follow the bresaola label for any remainder; do not assume a room-temperature display window. FSA chilling advice is general context, while the received pack controls product-specific handling.
