Note:
(a) misozuke  味噌漬け  【みそづけ】 (n): "meat or fish or vegetables preserved in miso"

* zuke 漬け 【づけ】 (suffix): "pickled (something)"
* tsuku 漬く; 浸く 【つく】 (v): "(1) to be immersed; (2) (漬く only) to be pickled"
Jim Breen's online Japanese dictionary
(b) The report says, "Add it [misozuke] to your cheese board and balance it with a sweet component like yuzu jelly, a less exotic marmalade or a fig jam."

A cheese board is just a board (check it out at images.google.com) where one can cut cheese. In the case of misozuke (which is paste-like), the report suggests mixing it (misozuke) with jelly, on the cheese board.
(c) yuzu

("The yuzu's flavor is tart, closely resembling that of the grapefruit, with overtones of mandarin orange. It is rarely eaten as a fruit")
