Tartiflette featuring Chablochon

Like most comfort food enthusiasts, we really love a good cheesy potato dish. It's the perfect time of year to tuck into a really great and somewhat modern French dish: the Tartiflette! We use Chablochon cheese which is nearly identical to the classic Reblochon, made in the neighboring region of Haute-Savoie (hence the similar yet different name) to craft this decadent dish. What could be better than cheese, potatoes, bacon, wine and creamy goodness to enjoy during some crisp, cool days? Serves 6. Ingredients: 1/2# Nueske's Bacon- thick cut, diced 2 yellow onions, diced 2 garlic cloves, minced 1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh thyme leaves (use 1/3 teaspoon if using dry thyme) Pinch of nutmeg 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon...

Mac and Cheese Featuring Semolina Pasta

This recipe is based on our Retail Manager, Sasha's favorite Mac and Cheese dish. The addition of the egg helps to emulsify the cheese into the sauce and make it have more of a creamy texture.

Sasha has found that mixing the cheese types based on certain characteristics, such as texture and varied flavors achieves a more desirable result versus using just a single type of cheese. We hope you enjoy this recipe as much as we did! Serves 6. Ingredients: 16 oz box of Semolina Pasta Fusilli (or any...
