2021 marks 50 years since Epicure Foods Corporation was founded. Epicure’s founder, Damir Drezga, grew up during World War II in communist Yugoslavia. After his father’s passing when he was just 9 years old, Damir had no choice than to take the role as head of household. Despite his family’s poverty and the hardships of World War II, Damir took care of his mother and younger brother.

After completing school, Damir traveled to Germany for better employment to make money for his family. He survived by selling rugs on street corners, and sent most of the money he made back home. Eventually, he was loaned money from a local convent for one-way ticket to the United States.

Upon arriving to America, he worked for a New York City food importer, where he learned the ins-and-outs of the industry.

A year later in 1971, he purchased his first pallet of Gouda from the Netherlands, thus marking the beginning of Epicure Foods!

50 years later, Epicure Foods has grown from importing that first pallet of Gouda cheese from the Netherlands to importing quality cheese, charcuterie, and various gourmet products from around the globe.

Guilloteau

The story of Fromagerie Guilloteau begins nearly 14 years before the now-famous

Fromagerie Guilloteau currently produces a range of cheeses under the brands

cheese company’s formation by a French cheese producer named Jean-Claude

Fromager d'Affinois, Pavé d’Affinois, and St. Angel. The fresh milk used from local French

Guilloteau. Through a key encounter between Guilloteau and scientists for the

farms is never more than 24 to 72 hours old, adding even more value (and flavor!)

French National Institute for Agricultural Research (INRA), the creation of the special

to the many advantages that come from ultrafiltration. Their even, creamy textures,

industrial process called ultrafiltration was developed and successfully patented in

delicate unique tastes, and very fine rinds must be tasted to be truly valued.

1969. Guilloteau then went on to start his own company, Fromagerie Guilloteau in 1981 with a focus on producing an expanding line of top-quality cheeses made exclusively with the ultrafiltration process.

Ultrafiltration is a special industrial process in which milk is filtered through a sieve to partially eliminate small molecules such as water, lactose and mineral salts. Because it retains the milk’s soluble proteins, ultrafiltration significantly increases the yield that can be used for cheese, as well as allows every step of the cheesemaking process to be quicker. Eliminated when traditional techniques are used, mineral salts are also retained in ultrafiltration, making the Fromager d’Affinois (and all Guilloteau cheeses) two to four times richer in calcium than a Brie or Camembert cheese.

The cow's milk to make these cheeses is collected in dairies where the cheese maker produces cheese rounds.

During maturing, the master cheesemaker tests each Comté with a cheese borer to assess its maturity and texture.

The final stages of the maturing process take place in a slow

maturing cellar and a storage cellar, when the rounds of cheese undergo most of their physical changes. The result of these special maturing techniques at the Fort des Rousses, give the Comté cheeses a nice creamy texture and a strong and refined combination of aromas that linger in the mouth.

Beecher's Apple Pie SERVES: 8 | PREP TIME: 30 MINUTES | COOK TIME: 1.25 HOURS

INGREDIENTS FOR THE DOUGH:

FOR APPLE FILLING:

- 13 oz. (or 2 and 2/3 cup) of all-purpose flour

- 2 ¾ lb Golden Delicious and Granny Smith apples (or your fa-

- ¾ teaspoon of Kosher salt

vorite baking apples from the farmer’s market), partially peeled,

- ¼ teaspoon baking powder

cored, sliced less than ¼-inch thick.

- ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper

- ¼ cup brown sugar

- 8 oz. butter, cut into cubes, frozen

- 2-3 tablespoons granulated sugar

- 3 oz. Beecher's Flagship, cubed

- 1 teaspoon cinnamon

- 3 oz. Beecher's Dutch Hollow Dulcet, cubed

- 1 ¼ teaspoons freshly minced ginger

- 1.5 teaspoons cider vinegar

- ¼ teaspoon nutmeg

- ½ cup of ice water

- ¼ teaspoon salt - 1 tablespoon lemon juice - 1 teaspoon lemon zest - 2 tablespoon butter - 1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon cornstarch

INSTRUCTIONS FOR FLAKY CHEESE DOUGH: 1. Add dry ingredients to food processor and pulse quickly to incorporate. Add cheese and pulse until the mixture resembles peas. Add butter and pulse 6-8 times until butter is the size of peas.

2. Combine vinegar and water and add it to the food processor. Blend until the mixture almost comes together.

3. Remove from the food processor onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently until the dough comes together (additional flour or ice water can be added if needed). Divide dough into two equal disks, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate for at least one hour before rolling.

4. Lay the disk of dough on a lightly floured counter or between two large sheets of plastic. Roll the dough outward from the center into a 12inch circle. Turn the dough a quarter turn every few rolls to help keep it circular. Dust with additional flour as needed to prevent sticking.

5. Loosely roll the dough around the rolling pin, then gently unroll it over the pie plate (9-inch). Gently press and lift the dough into the pie plate, letting the excess hang over the plate. If there is more than 1 inch of overhang, trim. Repeat rolling out the second disk to 12 inches and refrigerate flat until it’s time to assemble the pie.

FOR APPLE FILLING: 1. Toss apples with sugars, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, salt, lemon juice, and zest. Let sit for at least 45 minutes.

Strain off the juices into a pan with the butter, cook until reduced by half and syrupy (1/4 cup). Pour this syrup over apples that have been tossed with the cornstarch.

2. Pile apples into 9-inch pie pan lined with the Beecher's cheese dough. Cut strips out of remaining round of dough and weave on top of the apples to create a lattice.

3. Refrigerate for 1 hour before baking. This will help prevent the crust from shrinking and help with flakiness.

4. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees 20 minutes before baking. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil (to catch drips and make for easy clean up) and bake for approx. 1 to 1¼ hours.

5. After 30 minutes, cover the edges of the crust with foil to prevent over-browning. Reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees, rotate the pan, and continue to bake until the juices are bubbling and the crust is deep golden brown.

6. Let the pie cool on a wire rack until the filling has set, about 3 hours; serve slightly warm.

Wisconsin The Dairy Farmers of Wisconsin They’re pretty spoiled in Wisconsin. No other place in the country has the same access to such exceptionally produced dairy. And it all starts with their dedicated dairy farm families. They're committed to treating their cows and land with the utmost care and respect because quality care yields quality products. And quality products create happy dairy lovers. It’s just one of the ways They’ve earned the name America’s Dairyland.

Wisconsin is one of those places that does one thing better than anyone else anywhere. They've been making cheese in Wisconsin for over 175 years, which may be one reason we win so many awards for it. It's what happens when a whole state dreams in cheese.

"In Wisconsin, we treat our cows with kindness and respect. After all, without their hard work we wouldn't have a livelihood. Wisconsin farmers strive to offer the most comfortable, clean bedding and living conditions possible.

Dairy cows have access to feed, as well as fresh, clean water 24 hours a day. Regardless of the type of barn, dairy farmers focus on proper ventilation and protection from the elements."
