My daughter loved this book. Beautiful pictures & inspiring
I bought another cheese board book on Amazon, āCharcuterie Board Cookbook,ā and returned it the same day because of poor content and lousy photo quality. āThat Cheese Plateā¦ā is exactly what you need to build a prefect board. Photography is sharp, professional. Directions included for different shapes and sizes of platters, and complete description of cheeses, which cheese knives to use, meats and accompaniments. A+++++
