BLISSFUL BUTTER BOARDS!
OUR STORY Ladismith Cheese Company supplies the retail, food services, wholesale, and food production industries throughout South Africa and in some Sub-Saharan African countries. The Company has earned a reputation for producing a wide range of high quality, flavourful produce since its inception in 1999.
A butter board consists of softened butter spread flat across the surface of a board, seasoned with salt and lemon zest, then garnished with toppings of your choice. It's the new and improved version of its charcuterie counterpart. As always, presentation is key, meaning the butter can be smeared or sculpted into any chosen pattern or shape. The board is accompanied by fresh, warm bread on the side for scooping.
*As a general tip before you get started, remember to cut everything small enough to fit on a slice of bread!
HOW TO MAKE A BUTTER BOARD
THE HEART OF DAIRY GOODNESS
Step 1
Something like sourdough would work perfectly, with a lovely combination of crusty and soft textures Step 5
Start with a large board. A wooden board or serving plate would be ideal.
Step 2
Spread the butter on your chosen board. It’s important that the butter is warm, but not too much so that it melts. We recommend having the butter at room temperature and mixing in a bowl to ensure its smooth texture.

Step 4
Season, season, season! Salt is always a good addition, as well as lemon zest to add freshness. After this you can go as crazy as you want. Herbs, spices, toasted nuts… anything would work. Step 3
Display toppings in a presentable way. If you decide to add more toppings, like vegetables, ham or olives, then it’s important to arrange in a visually pleasing way! This is essential for the wow factor of the dish. Make sure everything is distributed evenly throughout the board, for a uniform, neat look.

Enjoy :) If you’re looking to create a butter board that has more of a luxurious finish, some people finish the decoration with edible flowers and a drizzle of honey - of course, only if it matches the other tastes on the board.
