Instructions:
1. Prepare the base: Use a large wooden or bamboo board as your canvas. Place the celery stick at the bottom to act as the tree trunk.
2. Assemble the tree:
At the base of the tree, layer thin slices of pork loin in a semi-circle to form the bottom.
Above the loin, add a layer of Manchego and Iberico cheese cubes in a neat line.
Follow with a row of Manzanilla olives.
Add a layer of Serrano or Iberico ham rolled into rosettes for texture.
Finish with red and black grapes at the top.
3. Top it off: Place a pineapple or apple slice cut into a star shape at the very top of the tree.
4. Garnish: Sprinkle pomegranate arils across the tree as ornaments. Add rosemary sprigs around the layers to mimic tree branches and enhance the festive look.
5. Serve: Place on the table with small forks, toothpicks, or crackers on the side for serving.
This charcuterie tree is perfect for pairing with wine and brings a sophisticated, playful twist to your holiday gatherings!
