If you’re looking to put together an impressive charcuterie board, you need more than just meats and cheeses.

What Dips for Charcuterie Board
When selecting dips for your charcuterie board, be sure to choose a variety so that there is something for everyone to enjoy!
As the majority of charcuterie boards are made up of cured meats and selections of cheese, the best charcuterie board dips are the ones that complement these proteins.
We’re personally huge fans of different kinds of hummus and dips where the meat and cheese can go right in the dip (be sure to provide toothpicks or appetizer skewers to keep things neat!).
Additionally, be sure to put out a selection of dippers on your charcuterie board outside of the meat and cheese. We always add cut-up veggies, pita chips, crackers and toasted baguettes, extending the charcuterie board into a full-blown party platter — Condiments for charcuterie board are a thing, too!
