GREETINGS FROM EMILIO

SUMMER DISCOVERIES SUMMER DISCOVERIES salt to achieve perfection. But if you want to gild the lily, top with a little Point Reyes Blue just before serving.

For more casual grilling, look no further than Schaller & Weber brats or Dietz & Watson Angus Hot Dogs.

Plump and snappy, they always hit the spot, especially when topped with mustard and sauerkraut. Or, for a fun twist, slather that bun with Sweet Grass Dairy’s Pimento Cheese!

If you’ve never seen a Barbeclette before, I suggest you check that out as well. A handheld grilling pan that melts individual slices of cheese for whatever it is you’re grilling (Racelette over grilled veggies is a go-to for my family). Alternately, you could always hit those veggies with a splash of Campari extra aged Balsamic vinegar.

AFTER A WINTER THAT LASTED FAR too long, it

feels like the city is finally warming up...just in time to leave. That’s right: summer in Philly means weekends “down the shore.” And down the shore eating is all about the grill. In this edition of the Culinary Pioneer, we’re showing off all our grilling favorites, from timeless classics to innovative ideas.

Of course, no week at the shore is complete without a few grilled steaks. I always start with one of the superb cuts of DemKota, a cooperative ranch in South Dakota specializing in upper-third Choice and Prime beef.

Cooked to medium-rare, all you need is a pinch of sea

Finally, we’re featuring a selection of beverages to wash it all down. Do yourself a favor and pick up a bottle of our DB Rosé, the fourth in our lineup of small batch wine projects produced exclusively for our stores. This pairs with just about everything, especially grilled meats.

For the kiddos, grab a couple Fonti di Crodo Limonata, a sparkling lemonade that’s simply perfect for cooling off in the summer sun.

Enjoy!

SUMMER GRILLING ESSENTIALS

From dry aged to prime, we take pride in our steaks.

They can be cut-to-order, and even house-dry aged!

At Demkota Ranch Beef, we provide our customers, locally and around the world, with elite products by sourcing our cattle from our neighbors: ranchers and feeders located in the heartland.

We strive for quality in every cut of beef, through sustainable farming, cattle feeding and harvesting practices focusing on animal welfare.

Our ranchers have worked this land for generations. They know the value of hard work and take pride in raising the most sought-after cattle in the nation. We share their passion for bringing the best possible beef to our family, neighbors, and customers abroad. In Demkota Country, ranchers work tirelessly to ensure their cattle carry the finest Angus genetics. Our commitment to quality is inspired by the spirit of our ranchers and we honor this tradition of excellence with every cut. The pride and passion of our employees coupled with our state of the art facility shows in every cut of beef, package and box.

At Di Bruno Bros., we’re proud to offer Demkota beef at our Rittenhouse store. Every cut is of the highest quality: perfectly tender and offering the rich, nuanced flavor you only find in pasture-raised cattle.

For our most popular cuts, our butcher uses exclusively Demkota beef for our dry-aged program. Dry-aging is a process by which proteins (usually beef, but also pork, poultry or seafood) are matured in a tightly controlled temperature-humidity balance. As the beef ages, the enzymes break down, tenderizing the meat to a sumptuous texture. Simultaneously, moisture content is drawn out of the beef, concentrating the flavor to its absolute maximum.

We’re confident that our dry-aged Demkota steaks are the best you’ll find in Philly. Prepare them minimally! Cook in a cast iron pan or over the grill for approximately three minutes per side (depending on the thickness of the cut) and hit it with a pinch of JQ Dickinson Salt for one of life’s simplest joys. For a touch of added flavor, render butter, garlic and rosemary in the pan after the steaks have been removed for a simple sauce. Blue cheese enthusiasts would enjoy some melted Roquefort or Stilton to gild the proverbial lily.

“My father was a fourth generation dairy farmer who farmed the way he and my mother were taught for about fifteen years in Southern Georgia, but they knew there had to be a better way. Most people don’t know the average life cycle of a cow in a conventional dairy system is only two to three lactation cycles. They switched over in 1993 to a New Zealand style rotational grazing system. We live literally in one of the only places in the United States where the cattle can graze on grass 365 days a year, thanks to our mild winters and the water from the Floridian aquafer. It completely changed their philosophy and way of farming.”

Pimento Cheese – $9.99/EA Magical comfort food with a subtle spice.

This mouth-watering pimento is a blend of Sweet Grass’s staple Thomasville Tomme, mayonnaise, piquillo peppers, and pimenton from Spain. The result makes for a classic Southern favorite with a slightly spicy and smokey flavor that’s irresistibly creamy.

Asher Blue – $29.99/LB This funky and flavorful blue is named after the owner’s second son, Asher. Its stunning natural rind and irresistibly creamy texture are mild and earthy, with cocoa and stone fruit notes throughout.

Green Hill – $16.99/LB Award-winning Green Hill is a uniquely crowd-pleasing double cream with a luscious, silky texture that is soft-ripened and remarkably versatile. Subtle notes of mushroom, grass, and brown butter.

Griffin – $34.99/LB The irresistible crumble of this malty favorite is created by aging each wheel 120 days. Each bite brings a hoppy, malt flavor with notes of maple syrup and coffee beans.

Thomasville Tomme – $24.99/LB Farmhouse cheese with layers of complex flavor. Buttery and grassy, subtly tangy and perfectly salty, creamy yet firm, each bite unfolds layer after layer of surprising flavor.

RACLETTE A SUMMER CHEESE This melty slice of heaven hails from the lush valley of the Valais mountains in Switzerland. Each wedge honors its roots with a funky, herbaceous flavor and a rich, creamy texture. Use your accompanying Barbeclette to scrape melted Raclette atop juicy burgers, savory brats, or pillowy soft pretzels.

DI BRUNO & FRIENDS WINE (& CHEESE) SERIES Sande Friedman, the woman behind the Di Bruno & Friends Wine Series project: The Di Bruno & Friends wine series is continually inspired by the spirit of always having something new and delicious to enjoy. Since 2019, we’ve partnered with a few different wineries each vintage to get hands on (picking, crushing and blending) creating small batch custom wines exclusive to our stores. Our partnerships are ever rotating, which keeps things fresh, but are always with producers near and dear to our stores. Previous partnerships have included a Barbera/Zinfandel blend from La Clarine

Farm (50 cases), rosé of Carmine with Wayvine Winery (100 cases), and old vine Pinot Gris from Maloof wines (52 cases).

This summer we’ve launched our 4th collaboration, and our second ever rosé!

Wine #4, our Galen Glen/Di Bruno Rose was crafted from hand harvested and estate grown Cabernet Franc, Chambourcin and Gruner Veltliner. The Cabernet Franc grapes were handpicked by the Di Bruno Bros. team on a hot day in the fall, on a hill rumored to be the home to the steepest elevation vines in all of Pennsylvania! Six months later, the Di Bruno team blended the final wine during the last snowstorm in March. A combination of cool fermentations to preserve aromas and saignées of Cabernet Franc and Chambourcin resulted in a delicately crisp and nuanced blend.

A splash of Gruner Veltliner adds lively texture.

This dry wine is bright and lively with aromas of kiwi fruit, wild strawberry and white peach.

About Galen Glen Winery: Owners, Galen and Sarah, established the winery in 1995 when they purchased the Troxell family double century farm from Galen’s father. Galen, a mechanical engineer and 6th generation farmer, and Sarah, a chemist, traded in corporate careers to grow grapes and launch the winery. Now beginning their 27th vintage, the Troxells’ skill sets have undoubtedly found their niches, resulting in wine rock stars. Galen is an industry leading mechanical wizard and vine whisperer. Sarah is a noted tastemaker and was nationally recognized as best woman winemaker. After completing degrees at Cornell and Montpellier SupAgro and working in famous wine regions around the world (France, Germany, New Zealand and Napa), the 7th generation to farm their land, daughter Erin, has returned to Galen Glen to lead winegrowing and assist in winemaking.

Erin is a momentous commitment to the future and will begin to leave her mark in the years ahead.

Amanda Bernhardt, CCP, the woman behind all things Di Bruno Bros. Cheese: Sometimes double booking yourself has it’s benefits! This past fall, I could not resist an invite to attend my first harvest. It was a hot, October day but I loved being out in the vineyard and working hands on with the grapes. Between picking and crushing, I had to run to take a quick call with the Cellars at Jasper Hill, an amazing cheese partner of ours in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont. When I shared with them I was harvesting the grapes that would become our next private label rose collaboration, my colleague, Leigh suggested jubilantly: “Let’s was a cheese with it!” Thus, our Galen Glen Rosé Washed Willoughby was birthed!

A staple of Jasper Hill’s assortment, fluffy rounds of soft- ripened Willoughby are typically washed periodically in a brine solution to encourage a yeasty, funky bite. This version has been bathed in the

deliciously complex, bottom of the barrel funk from our rose production. The result is a buttery, rich puck of cheese with a slightly floral and tangy finish. The perfect picnic cheese for early summer. Get this Di Bruno Bros. exclusive before it sells out!

INTRODUCING: ARTISANAL VEGAN CHEESE Really? Vegan Cheese at Di Bruno Bros?

Yes, really!

Admittedly, the House of Cheese is not the first place you think to shop when looking for vegan items. That’s all changed with the introduction of these two vegan producers who have created one of a kind, truly artisanal product that simply does not use milk from animals as their base. These cheeses are for everyone, whether you’re a committed vegan or simply interested in trying something new.

Conscious Cultures:

Philadelphian Bo Babaki began experimenting with his vegan cheese creations back in 2018 to supplement his vegetarian diet. He didn’t love what the vegan dairy products available then, finding them waxy, commercially produced, and lacking in flavor and complexity. He ordered some cultures online and began a trial-and-error experimental phase that ultimately landed him a glowing review in the New York Times last Spring.

One of the most distinct approaches Conscious Cultures uses is cave- aging their cashew and coconut oil-based cheeses, yielding an earthier and much more complex depth of flavor than many plant- based dairy items. Each wheel of Barn Cat and Maverick, our two favorites, are surface- inoculated with Penicillium candidum, a culture typically

used to ripen brie and camembert. These wheels are then aged for two to three weeks in an environment that essentially replicates a traditional cheese ripening room. We find Bo’s “cheeses” to be tangy and bright with a slight minerally finish and a downy, pillow- like texture. In short, some of the best vegan cheeses we have ever had.

Rind:

Based in Brooklyn, Rind was founded by vegan entrepreneurs: Dina Di Censo and Joshua Katcher. A nurse practitioner and champion of plant- based primary care (she’s also a vegan tattooist!), Dina began experimenting with making her own vegan cheeses at home. With the encouragement of family and friends, Dina partnered with Josh, a vegan designer and educator, to introduce her vegan cheese creations to the market. Their approach to vegan cheese making closely mirrors traditional European methods but uses plant-based ingredients like tofu, cashews, and coconut oil.

Their soft- ripened style wheels are inoculated with penicillium roqueforti or penicillium candidum and forms a natural, earthy, and flavorful rind. Their Classic Camembleu was recently selected as a SOFI award winner, a highly prestigious industry accolade awarded to members of the Specialty Food Association by industry experts. Their latest innovation is a carrot- based sliced cheese similar to American and perfect for melting into a grilled cheese or atop a veggie burger.

RIND CHEESES Aged Mini-Herb Wheel​ A soft-ripened cheese generously coated with a layer of basil, savory, thyme, tarragon, fennel, rosemary, oregano, dill, marjoram, chervil, lavender.​

Cranberry Spread​ The tart acidity and sweetness of dried cranberries brings out creamy and buttery notes of Rind’s classic cheese spread.

Aged Mini-Bleu Wheel​ An intense bleu mold rind, sometimes speckled with white, encases a yeasty, buttery body.​

Herb Spread​ An herb blend similar to Herbs de Provence is added to Rind’s classic spread, making it the perfect addition to your morning bagel or melted down for a cheese sauce over pasta.

LOCAL PRODUCERS SPOTLIGHT LOCAL FAVORITES:

Calkins Creamery Cherry Grove Farm Clover Creek Cheese Cellars

A beach picnic isn’t complete without cheese! We’re always bringing in local favorites, like…

Calkins Creamery Calkins is located in Honesdale, PA, a truly idyllic corner of North Eastern Pennsylvania that the Upper Delaware River slowly snakes through. This peaceful and beautiful place drew Emily Bryant and husband Jay back to her family’s farm after settling down in California.

Utilizing her degree in food science and Jay’s familiarity with dairy processing from his experience in ice cream manufacturing, Calkins Creamery was born. Calkins specializes in fine, artisan cheeses, using only the freshest milk possible from their herd of registered Holstein cattle. Their two hundred head herd wanders freely upon three hundred acres of thick, luscious grass during warmer weather. These comfy, happy cows produce more milk and, perhaps more importantly, more flavorful milk.

One of our favorites, Noblette is a miniature, soft- ripened brie style with a buttery, earthy, and mushroomy flavor yielding a creamy texture and delicate rind. A first place winner in the Brie category by the American Cheese Society in 2019. We adore this cheese simply slathered on a hunk of crusty bread with a tart sour cherry jam aside a glass of crisp bubbles.

Cherry Grove Farm Cherry Grove Farm is a diversified, sustainable dairy farm and creamery situated on 480 acres of woodland, wetland and pasture in Lawrenceville, New Jersey, making award-winning farmstead cheeses from grass-fed cows’ milk. Cherry Grove’s cheeses are made in small batches that speak to the seasonality of their herd’s milk and terroir of their farm, so no two wheel’s are alike. Their mixed herd grazes rotationally on a

daily basis, giving each pasture time to regrow and rejuvenate, giving the herd a diverse and healthy ecosystem to graze upon. Perhaps the jewel of Cherry Grove’s cheeses, Havilah is a full-flavored aged Gouda style cheese with a rich mouth feel and savory notes of pineapple, citrus, and caramel. This raw milk alpine style is only produced when the herd is grazing upon fresh, green grass. We enjoy it along side a fruit wheat beer or IPA and thick slices of apple.

Clover Creek Cheese Cellars A new addition to Di Bruno Bros, Clover Creek hails from Central Pennsylvania’s Morrison Cove Valley. Named for the rambling Creek that runs through the property, Clover Creek milks a colorful herd ranging from Jerseys to Ayrshires to Milking Shorthorns that exclusively graze on rich, green grass throughout the warmer months. They only make cheese during this period, to fully capitalize on the diverse milk the herd produces while they are grazing on peak pastures. Every batch of cheese is handmade in small amounts, giving this family of cheesemakers control over each step of the process.

Four Leaf Clover is a raw milk, bold, naturalrind cheddar aged over one year. Grassy and piquant, we’d happily munch on this cheddar alongside a brown ale or crisp white wine.

Named for the man that assisted in building Clover Creek’s production plant, Galen’s Good Old Gouda is cellar aged for 12+ months, producing a rich robust cheese with fruity notes. Smooth textured, this raw milk gouda is a fantastic melter- try atop a burger this summer.
