# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • Zero cooking time means you can prepare this stunning platter while having actual conversations with your guests, which honestly feels like cheating in the best way
  • Every element is naturally keto and low-carb, so you're nourishing your body while enjoying flavors that feel indulgent and celebratory
  • The visual drama of a well-arranged platter does so much of the work for you—people always assume you spent hours, but you'll know the truth
02 -
  • Temperature is everything—cold meats and cheeses are sad meats and cheeses. Let everything sit for at least ten minutes before serving so the flavors can actually wake up and introduce themselves to your palate.
  • The arrangement should have breathing room. A crowded platter looks chaotic. Generous spacing between clusters makes the whole thing feel intentional and luxurious.
  • Don't slice everything hours ahead of time. Cucumber weeps, tomatoes oxidize, and cured meats dry out. Slice thirty minutes before, maximum. Freshness is non-negotiable.
03 -
  • If you're serving wine, choose something dry and bright—a Sauvignon Blanc or Vermentino makes the acidity sing with all these rich elements
  • Keep everything away from direct sunlight on the table; the visual appeal fades quickly when cheese starts to sweat and colors begin to dull
