Steps
Prepare the serving board.
Choose a wide wooden board or platter. Drain the marinated vegetables on paper towels so the board doesn't go oily.
Arrange the cured meats and cheeses.
Loosely fold the prosciutto into ribbons and fan the salami slices in a row. Place cheeses in two corners.
Add vegetables, olives, and bread.
Tuck the artichokes, peppers, olives, and pepperoncini into the gaps in small piles. Fan bread slices along one edge.
Season and serve the mozzarella.
Drizzle the mozzarella with olive oil, season with salt, and serve at room temperature.
