Instead of simply having pickles on your charcuterie board, try grating frozen pickles over the meats and cheeses to have their briny taste in every bite and add a pretty garnish.

While frozen sliced pickles are a refreshing treat, you'll want to freeze whole pickles for grating. Cornichons are the obvious choice, but you can also use dill pickles.

Simply freeze your pickles on a tray overnight or until frozen solid. Once your charcuterie board is ready, use a microplane to grate the frozen pickles directly over the platter.

You can also put the shavings in a bowl if you'd like more control over how much you add. It's up to you whether you want the pickle flavor on everything or just some select items.
