Cheese

Look for the Proudly Wisconsin Badge when shopping for cheese. Any brand of Wisconsin BellaVitano® or Parmesan can be used in this recipe.

Instructions

Combine the vegetables, water, honey and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to medium; simmer, uncovered, for 8-10 minutes or until sauce is reduced to a glaze and vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally.
Remove from the heat. Stir in Black Pepper BellaVitano®. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with thyme and additional Black Pepper BellaVitano®.

Recipe Tips

Any assortment of root vegetables can be used. | Using red beets will add color to the glaze; they could be cooked separately if desired.

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.

The accolades for Sartori Black Pepper BellaVitano® are impressive: It won Grand Champion at the 2017 U.S. Championship Cheese Contest and Gold Medals at the 2017 and 2019 World Cheese Awards. Hand-rubbed to peppery perfection, the fruit of the black pepper vine surrounds the base of nutty, fruity and creamy Original BellaVitano® for a beautiful cheese inside and out.
