Cheese has an incredible way of bringing comfort and indulgence to any dish. From the creamy tang of feta to the melt-in-your-mouth richness of cheddar, these cheeses turn simple dishes into irresistible meals.
So whether you’re crafting a cheeky ham and cheese croissant or putting together a hearty ploughman’s, there’s always room for more cheese in your kitchen. Here are five delightful recipe ideas that showcase the rich dairy goodness of cheese.
Cheesy croquettes
Croquettes are a timeless classic, perfect as tapas, an entrée or as a garnish for a main course. Yarde Farm Tasty Cheese Cubes (71598) are spot-on for these crunchy, fried treats, with the small cubes melting and exploding cheesy goodness in every bite. Mix thick bechamel, finely diced and sautéed onions, chopped chives, salt, pepper and a good amount of freshly grated nutmeg to cooked and mashed potatoes. Now add a generous handful of the cheese cubes to the mix then roll, crumb and fry. Serve with fresh tomato relish. Yum!
Omelettes: a chef’s ultimate challenge
They say the sign of a good chef is how well they can cook an omelette. Making a real crowd-pleaser comes down to a few things, including using the right pan, plenty of butter and gently folding the egg mixture to guarantee a perfect texture. Adding a good handful of Yarde Farm Shredded Mozzarella (84811) will give it a cheesy stretch and real dairy goodness.
The ultimate cheese toastie
Biting into a pimped-up toastie is pure bliss. Hot, thick and crusty sourdough with a gooey melted centre of cheddar, tangy sour cream and, for something different, a slather of spicy beef madras. This is a two-handed sandwich that’s 100% worth the effort. Make a big batch of your best beef madras, then spread a generous amount on thick-cut sourdough with light sour cream and loads of Yarde Farm Finely Shredded Tasty Cheese (53672). The finer shred melts more evenly, ensuring a sharp tang in every bite. Butter the outside and fry slowly until hot inside and golden in colour.
Creamy whipped feta dip
A creamy and tangy masterpiece, filled with the dairy goodness of Yarde Farm Greek-Style Fetta (161741). This dip is as easy as one, two, three. Start by blending feta, thick yoghurt and grated lemon zest in a food processor. Slowly add extra virgin olive oil until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Set aside with your mise en place, then drizzle to order with more olive oil and finish with fresh herbs, pita bread, pomegranates and pistachios.
Mac 'n' cheese
Hot roux, cold liquid. That’s the first secret to a mind-blowing mornay. And for a nachos-inspired flavour, add onion powder, smoked paprika, cumin and a little turmeric. Now it’s time to add the cheese. How much? We say the more the better. Using Yarde Farm Premium Tasty Shredded Cheese (49200) will bring a bold cheese flavour to the sauce – while using mozzarella adds a delicious stretch when gratinated.
