Ingredients
Method
- Softening the cream cheese for spreading. Make sure it is easy so you can work with it.
- Lay each slice of meat piece on a flat surface. Fold each slice in half. Then fold again.
- Secure! Secure each meat slice with small bread base. Keep going till you see a big flower shape.
- Arrange your cheese board. Make sure you have enough space for new meat flowers and rosemary if using it.
Notes
Focus on the meat quality. Thinly sliced, high-quality meats are key to creating delicate and visually appealing petals. Play with different meats to achieve various colors and textures. When folding the meat, ensure each fold is consistent to create uniform petals. Experiment with various cream cheese flavors, such as herb and garlic or roasted red pepper. For a vegan option, consider using thinly sliced, marinated tofu or tempeh to create plant-based 'meat' flowers.
