How many accompaniments should I offer with my cheese plate?<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\"Agreen\"<\/a><\/div>\n
The appropriate number of accompaniments\u2014in addition to plain bread and\/or crackers, of course\u2014depends on whether the cheese is served as a course or the main event.
\nFor the former, a trinity of temptations is all you need for a balanced sensory experience: mildly tart fruit (strawberries, green apple, or kiwi); unsalted nuts (raw almonds or hazelnuts); and a spicy-sweet spread (hot pepper jelly or quince paste).<\/div>\n
Bits of dark chocolate may be substituted for nuts, especially if the cheese plate is also the dessert course. Each of these accompaniments <\/a>offers a break for the palate and enhances the flavor of the cheeses.
\nWhen cheese is the main course, add dried fruits\u2014figs or dates\u2014and savory meat such as prosciutto to bring total accouterments to five and boost flavor and textural variety. But don\u2019t get carried away. Less is often more and the focus should be on the cheeses.<\/div>\n
