The tradition of serving cured meats and cheeses together has deep roots in Iberian history, influenced by Roman and Moorish food preservation techniques. Charcuterie, a cornerstone of this dish, emerged as a way to preserve meat before refrigeration, while cheese-making dates back centuries, providing a valuable source of protein and flavor.
