We created a comforting dish thanks to La Belle-Mère cheese from Fromagerie Médard, winner of the Caseus Bronze 2024. This semi-firm cheese with beef broth and caramel aromas melts wonderfully. Use it in this recipe that includes beer-braised pork shoulder, along with a topping of sautéed kale and cheesy potato purée. Given that this cheese is voluminous in height, slice it thick to cover each casserole dish prior to browning. It’s the perfect dish to warm up to at the beginning of the colder months.

Potatoes get a stylish makeover for the holidays in this simple side dish. The creamy and fragrant gratin is made with crème fraîche, a rosemary-infused broth and topped with fried sage and bacon. A new delicious holiday tradition is born!

We highlighted Grey Owl cheese from Fromagerie Le Détour in this recipe. Prepared with the Caseus Or 2024 winner, it’s presented with a timeless pairing: apple chutney that’s been made with honey, cider vinegar and aniseed. These elements pair beautifully with the ashy-rinded goat cheese, whose taste is slightly tangy. The soft, immaculately white cheese contrasts nicely with the beautiful reddish colour of the chutney, obtained by keeping the apple peels.
