Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 bunch radishes, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup shelled, cooked edamame
  • 2 ounces honeycomb
  • 4 oz goat cheese
  • 4 oz aged cheddar or manchego cheese
  • 6 oz thinly sliced prosciutto or soppressata (optional)
  • Handful of fresh mint or basil leaves
  • 1/4 cup toasted almonds or pistachios
  • Sliced small baguette or whole grain crackers
  • 1/2 cup mixed olives or cornichons

Instructions

  1. Prepare the edamame: steam or boil 1 cup shelled edamame for about 5 minutes until tender but still bright green. Rinse under cold water and drain thoroughly. Set aside to cool.
  2. Slice the radishes: wash and trim 1 bunch of radishes. Using a sharp knife or mandoline, slice thinly (about 1/8 inch or 3mm thick) for a crisp texture.
  3. Slice the cheese and meats: cut 4 oz goat cheese into small spreadable chunks or logs. Slice 4 oz aged cheddar or manchego into thin, bite-size pieces. Arrange 6 oz thinly sliced prosciutto or soppressata in loose folds.
  4. Toast the nuts: in a dry skillet over medium heat, toast 1/4 cup almonds or pistachios for 3–5 minutes, stirring frequently until fragrant and lightly browned. Cool before placing on the board.
  5. Arrange the board: place small bowls or ramekins for honeycomb and olives or pickles. Space out radish slices and edamame in small piles. Add cheeses and folded meats alternating colors and textures.
  6. Garnish: scatter fresh herbs like mint or basil leaves around the board. Add toasted nuts in small clusters. Drizzle a little honey over the honeycomb and some cheese if desired.
  7. Final touches: add crackers or sliced baguette around edges or empty spaces. Ensure everything is easy to reach and inviting.

Notes

Use fresh, crisp radishes for best flavor. Steam edamame just until tender to maintain texture and color. Handle honeycomb gently to avoid sticky mess. Keep cheese cool until just before serving. For dairy-free, substitute cheeses with marinated tofu or vegan cheese. Gluten-free crackers can be used to adapt the recipe.
