Ingredients

Nuts in Honey:

¼ cup (85 g) honey
3 tablespoons mixed toasted nuts (walnut pieces, toasted almonds, pistachios)

If the honey is stiff, put the jar in a saucepan of barely simmering water over low heat until the honey liquefies enough to pour. In a small serving bowl, combine the honey and the nuts. Suggested Cheeses:

Laura Chenel Aged Crottin
Cowgirl Creamery Mt. Tam
Cypress Grove Truffle Tremor

Accompaniments:

Crackers and flatbreads
Sliced baguette
Prosciutto di Parma, thinly sliced
Sopressatta, thinly sliced
Black and green olives
Dried apricots, Medjool dates, and other dried California fruits
Roasted pistachios in shell

Instructions

Add what you love; omit what you don’t. It’s yours to compose. Good cheese counters typically have many selections, like truffled cheeses, luscious triple-cream cheeses, and mini cheeses meant for two. Add roasted nuts, dried fruits, condiments, and crackers. You can purchase mixed nuts in honey but making your own is a cinch.
