Learn how to turn the Shot Set & Ash Board into a creative charcuterie serving piece. Step-by-step guide for arranging meats, cheeses, and dips on the ash board.
Quick answer
Use the Shot Set & Ash Board as a compact charcuterie board by placing dips or spreads in the shot glasses and arranging cured meats, cheese cubes, olives, and crackers directly on the natural ash board.
Why this works for charcuterie
The Shot Set & Ash Board combines a natural ash board with three cylindrical shot glasses, giving you built-in vessels for wet ingredients like dips, spreads, or pickled items. The organic shape and thumb hole make it easy to pass around a small gathering.
Because the board is untreated wood, it works best with dry or low-moisture charcuterie items. Avoid placing very wet foods directly on the board for long periods to prevent staining.
How to arrange the charcuterie
- Fill the shot glasses: Spoon a different dip or spread into each glass: one for a mustard or chutney, one for a soft cheese like Brie, and one for olives or pickled onions. Do not overfill the glasses—leave space for dipping without dripping onto the board.
- Add dry charcuterie items: Arrange folded slices of cured meat, cheese cubes, crackers, and dried fruit on the flat surface of the ash board. Keep items away from the thumb hole so it remains accessible. Place items in small piles so guests can pick them up without touching the board surface too much.
- Serve and replenish: Set the board on a table or pass it among guests. Refill the glasses and rearrange the board as needed during the gathering. Wipe the ash board with a dry cloth after each use—avoid soaking it in water.
Product facts
- Shot Set & Ash Board: The cylindrical shot glasses sit on an organically-shaped natural ash board with a thumb hole designed for ease of carrying. The thumb hole makes it easy to carry the board to the table, while the shot glasses hold dips or spreads separately from the dry charcuterie items.
