Cook With Wisconsin Cheese
The state of Wisconsin and the art of cheese making are
synonymous. In celebration of June Dairy
Month, enjoy some Wisconsin cheese. Here
are some tips for handling and cooking with cheese to ensure they taste and
perform at their best.
·
Most natural cheeses taste best when served at
room temperature. Let sit, covered, out
of refrigeration, for 30 minutes to an hour before serving.
·
Take out only what you think you will consume at
one sitting and leave the remainder in the refrigerator. Repeated temperature
changes hasten product deterioration.
·
In cooking, use low heat and avoid long
cooking. High heat and long cooking
times make many natural cheeses tough and stringy.
·
To promote even melting, slice, shred, grate,
cube, or dice cheese before adding as an ingredient.
·
Broil foods topped for cheese four to six inches
from heat source.
·
To microwave cheese, use 30 percent (medium-low)
to 70 percent (medium-high) power.
