Remove all cheeses from the refrigerator 30–45 minutes before assembling so they come to room temperature and their flavors fully open up.

Spoon the mustard, fig jam, and cornichons into separate small bowls and place them at different anchor points across the board — these become the visual anchors around which everything else is arranged.
