Bread and crackers
Lay out the board by levels of sweet and savory: sweet cheeses such as ricotta and gorgonzola dolce toward the center; parmesan, pickles and speck together; artichoke hearts near the parmesan; smoked almonds by the Midnight Moon; grilled onions by the artichoke hearts.
Laying out the board
Put the triple cream up front with a healthy scoop of caramelized onion jam and the figs.
Fill the gaps with nuts, fruit and olives.
