According to legend, Valençay was originally produced in a perfect pyramid shape. Napoleon, who had just returned to France after a disastrous loss in Egypt, was reminded of this by the shape of the cheese, and therefore sliced off the top with his sword. Nowadays, Valençay brings us nothing but joy, as this classic Loire ash-ripened goat cheese is dense, fudgy, bright, and pairs perfectly with a crisp French rosé — 02/02/2022 #milkfarmlunch 1) HBB: French ham, fromage de meaux, cracked black pepper, & herbed butter on baguette 2) TRUFFLE SALAMI: wine-cured salami, Spanish truffle cheese, truffle butter, greens, & EVOO on baguette 3) MILKFARM GRILLED CHEESE 4)

We received our bounty of Rogue River Blue a little bit late this year, but better late than never, as they say! This über-special blue cheese from @roguecreamery is wrapped in Syrah grape leaves that have been macerated in pear liqueur, and typically only comes out on the autumnal equinox. And lest we forget, it was also awarded best cheese IN THE WOOOOORLD a few years back! It may be winter, but it feels like spring, and we get to eat an autumnal cheese…all the rules are thrown out the window! ? — 01/28/2022 #milkfarmlunch 1) VEGGIE: Spanish goat cheese, fresh cucumber, sundried tomato, cracked black pepper, greens, & herbed butter on baguette 2) HBB: French ham, fromage de meaux, cracked black pepper, & herbed butter on baguette 3) PROSCIUTTO ITALIANO: fresh basil, Fontina Val D’Aosta, sundried tomato, EVOO, greens, & balsamic on baguette 4) MUFFALETTA: garlic aioli, Salami Rosa, fresh ricotta, Louisiana chopped olive salad, fresh herbs, greens, & EVOO on focaccia 5)
