Looking Good & Staying Sanitary

In ensuring both aesthetics and hygiene in your charcuterie workshops, individualized packaging becomes key. This section will guide you on how to prepare and present ingredients in a way that’s both visually appealing and sanitary.

  1. Packaging Essentials: Choose clear, attractive containers that showcase the freshness and quality of the contents. Ensure they’re sealed to maintain hygiene.
  2. Preparation: Divide all workshop ingredients—meats, cheeses, fruits, nuts—into individual portions before the class. This minimizes cross-contamination and keeps the presentation neat.
  3. Labeling: Clearly label each box with the contents and any necessary preparation instructions. This adds a professional touch and assists participants in following along.
  4. Display: Arrange the individual boxes at each participant’s station before they arrive. It creates an inviting setup and makes attendees feel catered to from the moment they sit down.
  5. Sanitation Supplies: Alongside the ingredient boxes, provide each participant with hand sanitizer, disposable gloves, and sanitizing wipes. It emphasizes the importance of cleanliness and allows for quick cleanup during the workshop.
  6. Instructor Example: Lead by example—wear gloves when handling food and make use of your sanitizing supplies openly. This demonstrates best practices and encourages participants to do the same.

By focusing on individual packaging and cleanliness, you ensure a safe, enjoyable, and visually appealing experience for all attendees, reinforcing the professionalism and quality of your workshops.
