June Cheese of the Month: Twin Sisters Creamery Farmhouse

Spring Frittata with Herbed Yogurt

This easy frittata showcases the flavors of spring along with a local farmhouse cheese from Twin Sisters Creamery in Ferndale, WA.

Ingredients:

2 tbsp. Smith Brothers Farms Unsalted Butter
5 to 6 asparagus spears, cut into inch long pieces
1/4 cup fresh peas
8 Smith Brothers Farms Eggs
1/4 cup Smith Brothers Farms Milk
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. pepper
2 oz. Twin Sisters Creamery Farmhouse Cheese, grated

For decoration

3 to 4 NatureSweet Cherubs Tomatoes, halved
3 scallions

For Herbed Yogurt

3/4 cup Chobani Plain 5% Greek Yogurt
1 tbsp. fresh thyme, minced
1 tbsp. fresh chives, minced
1 tsp. lemon zest
A squeeze of lemon juice
Pinch of salt

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400F. Place a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat, and melt butter.

While butter is melting, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. When butter is melted and bubbly, add asparagus and sauté for 5 to 6 minutes or until soft but still crisp in the middle. Add peas and sauté for another 1 to 2 minutes.

Gently pour egg mixture into skillet, spreading vegetables out evenly. Sprinkle cheese over the top, then arrange scallions and tomatoes to form flowers. Keep over medium heat until edges are just set, then place in the oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until middle is set.

While the frittata is baking, mix everything for the herbed yogurt in a small bowl. Set aside.

Pull frittata out of the oven and let cool until edges pull away from the pan. Serve in slices with the herbed yogurt.

Twin Sisters Creamery

Inspired by their twin girls to pursue a dream of starting a family business, Lindsay and Jeff Slevin, blended their experience and passion to embark on a journey to become artisan cheesemakers. The couple constructed a modern cheese production facility in their hometown of Ferndale, Washington and in 2015, Twin Sisters Creamery opened their doors. All of their cheese is made with only the freshest, top-quality raw milk from a single-source herd of Jersey cows raised at Twin Brook Creamery – just twelve miles from the Ferndale cheese production facility. It doesn’t get any fresher than that!

Twin Sisters Creamery Farmhouse White Cheese

Superb, award-winning cheese made with raw milk from a single-source herd in Ferndale.

Twin Sisters Creamery Farmhouse is a true classic table cheese. Aged for a minimum of 60 days, it’s a mellow, creamy cheese with a citrus tang and buttery finish that shows off the rich Jersey cow’s milk. Perfect in its simplicity; yet, enough depth to make you savor its rich creamy undertones. An exceptional melting cheese, Farmhouse elevates dishes such as quiche, grilled cheese, and burgers. Sip with Chardonnay, fruity Zinfandel, or a nutty brown ale. We’re selling each wedge throughout the month of June, while supplies last.
