Recipe Tips

Make it your own! Substitute any of your favorite varieties of Wisconsin cheese on this cheeseboard.| A rillete is a meat dish similar to a pate; it’s commonly used as a spread on toasted breads. | Roth Canela Aged Cheese is formerly known as Roth GranQueso® cheese (in video), this one-of-a-kind cheese has been an American Cheese Society winner seven years in a row. | LaClare Martone cheese (in video) is no longer available. We swapped in cave-aged LaClare Chandoka cheese instead.

Cheesemonger Tip

Do you have questions when shopping for cheese? Ask the cheesemonger! A cheesemonger specializes in the buying and selling of high-quality cheese, usually available in the specialty section of a grocery store or cheese shop. Knowledgeable and passionate, a cheesemonger is a go-to resource for cheese varieties and pairings, proper cheese storage and handling, its cooking applications and cheese brand information.

When serving cheese with bold flavors, refresh the taste buds with fresh and dried fruits, nuts or sour gerkins. Their simple flavors won’t compete with the cheese.
