What’s a cheese plate but a salad you haven’t tossed yet? Here fancy ham, funky cheese, and juicy seasonal fruit become a side dish even greater than the sum of its parts thanks to the addition of a black-pepper-spiked agrodolce drizzle. Seek out Danish blue cheese specifically to cut into thin slabs—it’s milder in flavor and holds its shape better when sliced than other varieties.

Back to TopI saw this here and made it twice, both times to rave reviews. The second time for a larger group, I nestled it on a bed of arugula, lightly dressed with evoo and fresh lemon juice. Gorgeous and delicious. A keeper.
