# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • They come together in under fifteen minutes but look like you put real thought into presentation
  • The sweet and salty combination keeps guests coming back for just one more
02 -
  • Uniform cutting of both fruit and cheese makes these actually pleasant to eat instead of awkward and unbalanced
  • Patting fruits completely dry before threading prevents the cheese from sliding around and keeps flavors concentrated
03 -
  • Use room temperature cheese for easier threading, then chill the finished kabobs for at least thirty minutes
  • If apples or pears are on your ingredient list, toss them in a little lemon juice before threading to prevent unsightly browning
