Prepare Your Base: Select a large round platter or board as your base. You can place a small bowl in the center to help guide the circular shape and later fill it with a dip or olives.
Layer the Greens: Arrange fresh rosemary sprigs around the edge of the board to mimic a wreath. This will form the foundation of your antipasto wreath.
Assemble the Antipasto:
Roll the cured meats into small cones or rosettes for a decorative touch and place them evenly around the wreath.
Add clusters of cheese, alternating types for visual variety.
Arrange the pickled vegetables, cherry tomatoes, and fresh vegetables, filling in gaps for a full, lush appearance.
Add Fruits and Crackers: Tuck grapes or dried fruits between the savory items for a pop of sweetness. Place crackers and breadsticks along the outer edge or in a separate dish nearby.
Garnish: Sprinkle fresh basil leaves and a few more rosemary sprigs for extra color and aroma.
