This year we featured a plethora of classic and innovative ways to incorporate cheese into your home cooking. From pasta in whole wheels of camembert to clothbound cheddar brownies, these are our favorite cheese-centric recipes of 2022.
Fresh Fettuccine in Camembert Wheels with Creamy Confit Tomato Sauce
Homemade pasta IN a camembert wheel…need we say more?
Whipped Preserved Lemon Chèvre Toast with Pickled Radish and Sumac
This bright and beautiful toast is as delicious as it is pretty. Swap the pickled radish for fresh ones for an extra bite!
Fudge Brownies with Clothbound Cheddar
The only thing better than brownies? Brownies with cheese in them. Yes, we know it might sound crazy, but trust us when we say you’ll never want to go back to making brownies the “traditional” way.
Garída Saganaki
In our Cheese Plus issue we learned about the history of cheese and seafood in Greece, and this recipe certainly is proof the two can coexist together. Saganaki is traditionally served in seaside tavernas throughout Greece, it is comprised fresh shrimp, tomatoes, and feta cheese that are roasted together in a small, two-handled sauté pan called a saganaki or sagani.
Älplermagronen
This traditional Alpine comfort food is the Swiss version of macaroni and cheese. And with the addition of caramelized onions you’re getting your veggies in too!
Fried Goat Cheese with Pistachio Dust, Pepper, and Vanilla Honey
These goat cheese balls have been on the menu for 15 years at Beau Owen’s restaurant the Lazy Goat, and for good reason. The contrasting flavors and textures play on one another to create an addictive appetizer you’ll want to make again and again.
