Staff Pick
Bent River Camembert

In my opinion, Bent River Camembert is the best domestic camembert around. Made right here in Mankato, Minn., the Alemar Cheese Co. makes it using org. Cedar Summit milk. Try pairing it with Duhaime orange & cranberry spread for the perfect  appetizer. - Lori, Cheesemonger

 

-By Claudia Rhodes, Events Coordinator

Another great way to celebrate the citrus season and the frozen tundra all at once!

Ingredients:
2 quarts milk
2 tbsp. butter
1 cup sugar
1/2 tsp. cinnamon,
1 vanilla bean split and seeds scraped
1 cup Arborio rice
1 1/2 cups water
1 orange, zested plus more  for garnish
Pinch of salt

Method:
In a saucepan, place milk, butter, sugar, cinnamon, vanilla bean and seeds. In a separate heavy sauce pan or rice cooker, cook rice until done al dente. Once water has evaporated from the rice add milk mixture. Simmer stirring regularly until rice is tender. Add the orange zest and salt. Stir well and remove from heat. 

The consistency should not be stiff, but like risotto.  Spoon into bowls.
Garnish with orange zest and a dusting of cinnamon.  Great warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream!
