Plan to use at least three pounds of block-shaped cheese.
Use a cheese slicer to make even slices (1/8" -- 1/4" thick).
Using a few seasoned cheeses, like Jalapeño Jack, will give the appearance of changing
leaves. To make leaves of various sizes, use cheese-leaf cutters (available in cookware
and hardware stores). In the center of a round cheese board, place a bowl of cranberry
relish (available in most grocery stores). Place leaves in a ring around the bowl.
Repeat layering with remaining leaves. Cover with plastic wrap and store in refrigerator
until serving time. Use leftover cheese leaves for snacks, casseroles, pizzas and salads.
