(NEW JERSEY) As grilling season gets underway, U.S. consumers have an exciting new addition to their backyard barbecue menu: specialty cheeses made just for the grill. Now available at select retailers, NEW ROUGETTE Bon·fire Grilling Cheeses are easy to grill, come in two flavors and can be incorporated into a wide variety of recipes and lifestyles — from appetizers to desserts, vegetarian to paleo.
- Soft-Ripened Grilling Cheese is made to be heated directly on the grill – just like a burger! The soft ripened cheese can withstand the direct heat without melting or sticking to the grill. The cheese develops a char-grilled, golden crispy outside and a warm & creamy soft inside. An excellent grilling choice for vegetarians and cheese lovers alike!
- Herb Marinated Grilling Cheese – A savory and creamy semi-soft cheese marinated in herbs and oil that comes in a convenient aluminum pan for easy preparation and grilling. The cheese softens when warmed and has versatile party menu applications: it can be warmed on both sides and then diced to toss into salads, layered with grilled vegetables for one-pan main course, or it can be melted into a hot dip, perfect for a crowd.
“Now grill masters and cheese lovers alike can enjoy specialty cheeses in a totally new way,” said Flynne Wiley, CEO of Champignon North America, the exclusive importer of Käserei Champignon cheeses. “ROUGETTE Bon·fire Grilling Cheeses offer a unique grilling experience and perfectly compliment any backyard cookout from a down-home barbecue to a sophisticated soiree.”
All-natural ROUGETTE Bon·fire Cheeses are excellent vegetarian-friendly options for any barbecue occasion and can be prepared on charcoal, gas, electric, as well as on the stove top or oven. The imported cow’s milk cheese’s mild and creamy flavor profiles are lactose free, gluten-free and rBGH-free and don’t have any preservatives, stabilizers or additives.
