Creator of the Instagram sensation @ThatCheesePlate Marissa Mullen takes cheese to a whole new level with her gorgeous, show-stopping cheese plates. With her simple step-by-step Cheese by Numbers method, she breaks down the cheese plate into its basic components--cheese, meat (aka the Salami River), produce, crunch, dips, garnish--and shows you how to recreate these beautiful spreads for any occasion, whether it's a dinner party, a book club gathering, wine nights with friends, or your classy Netflix binge.
I first found out about Marissa Mullen's cheese expertise when I stumbled upon her Instagram account. I LOVE cheese and I'm always dreaming of making fun charcuterie boards, so this book really helps jog my mind. If you're a cheese love, charcuterie lover, or just a plain ol' food lover you will most definitely love this book!
