A Round Bamboo Cheese Board With a Hidden Knife Drawer: The $21.25 Swiveling Charcuterie Set
A good cheese board does half the work of hosting. You set out a few things, the board makes them look planned, and everyone relaxes. The Nu'Jants Round Bamboo Cheese Board With Knife Set and Removable Slate is a 12 inch swiveling board that costs $21.25, and the cheese tools live inside it.
What comes in the set
This is more than a flat board. According to the product page, the set includes:
A 12 inch (30 cm) round bamboo board that swivels, with a height of about 1.3 inches (3.5 cm)
A removable slate platter that doubles the serving capacity
A plane knife for firmer cheeses
A spatula knife to slice or shave
An all-purpose cheese knife
A serving fork to serve or transfer the goodies
A hidden slide-out drawer that keeps the cheese tools stored inside the board
The board serves 2 to 3 people on its own, and the removable slate gives you extra room when the guest list grows.
Why bamboo
The board is made from 100% natural bamboo, which the product page describes as a highly renewable and sustainable resource. It is listed as sturdy and durable, with a smooth, splinter-free surface that will not stain or absorb odors. Cleanup is simple: wash it with soapy water. That matters, because the best serving board is the one you will actually want to use again next weekend.
The swivel and the hidden drawer
Two small details make this board easier than most. First, the swivel design means guests can turn the board toward themselves instead of reaching across the table. Second, the knives and fork are kept in a hidden slide-out drawer, so the tools are never lost at the bottom of a kitchen drawer. Unpack, swivel, slice and serve. When the party is over, everything tucks back in and the board stores or travels as one piece.
More than a cheese board
The listing points out that the board also works as a serving tray for veggies, fruits, meat, crackers and appetizers, and even tacos or sushi. It can double as a small cutting board, and it travels well for picnics, the beach or a campsite. If you like to entertain, one board that handles cheese night, taco night and a quick snack tray earns its counter space.
Who this makes a good gift for
At $21.25, this is an easy gift under $25. The product page suggests it for an anniversary, a wedding registry, a housewarming, a bridal shower or the holidays. It is also the kind of hostess gift that does not need wrapping tricks, because the board itself looks good. Not sure what someone likes? A Nu'Jants gift card lets them pick.
