Sugar Maple Jerseys Cheese Review

 


When you think of New Jersey, you don't really think Farms. But there is farms, in fact there's a special one called, Sugar Maple Jerseys. And that’s what the products are about today, raw cheese that the farm sent over.




The owner, Heidi, has been on the dairy farm since she was seven years old. In fact her passion was Jersey cows. In 2013 as a single mom, and a dream, Sugar Maple Jerseys dairy farm was born. Soon meeting Rick, her now husband, they are a force behind, Sugar Maple Jerseys, and it grows bigger everyday!




And if you are ever in the area, you can milk the cows, a nice one of a kind experience. Also you are able to farm or market pick up, their great products. Sugar Maple Jerseys dairy farm is located in Stockton, New Jersey. You can not only get their fine cheese's, but some farm fresh meats. All at high quality products at great prices.




For me, I am having a day all about cheese. Cheese made on the, Sugar Maple Jerseys dairy farm. From sunrise to sunset, I made some mouth watering recipes, all about, Sugar Maple Jerseys dairy farm, aged raw milk cheeses and feta, that comes in half pound blocks.

 

So let me tell you what I made through out the day!





Breakfast was unique and so delicious. A nice pan toasted feta and spinach wrap. The feta in the wrap was remarkable. It had a nice texture and crumble, and paired beautiful with the spinach. Feta is a cheese that is well known for a Greek salad. But in all reality, is a wonderful cheese, you can slice and eat on a plate, with some olives and peppers, or just plain. It is a very versatile cheese that you can use in many recipes, and also you can fry it!





For lunch, everyone enjoyed a nice sourdough toasted veggie sandwich. Zucchini slices, tomato and some slice Sugar Maple Jerseys, raw milk Gouda cheese. It melted so thick and creamy, and melded perfectly with the sandwich. Raw milk cheese, is a fresh and unprocessed cheese, that is so much easier to digest. Raw milk cheese, may be firm, creamy or crumbly, and are aged for at least sixty days. For me this farm fresh cheese from, Sugar Maple Jerseys was fantastic. If you have never had it, you don't know what your missing. The raw milk gouda from, Sugar Maple Jerseys dairy farm is semi hard and very aromatic, almost has a caramel flavor. It is nice and dense with a springy texture. Sweet and creamy cheese that is divine on your palate.

 

Lunch with the cheese from, Sugar Maple Jerseys dairy farm was so mouth watering. So I knew moving forward, to dinner and dessert, the meals were going to be a great hit.





To start our dinner, the first course was large slices of fresh tomato's with a topping of, Sugar Maple Jerseys dairy farm, aged pepper cheddar cheese. And even topped that with some diced chives. Along side of a nice fresh salad with olive oil. It was a perfect start, to a nice cheese day dish. The cheese melted beautiful, and melded so perfect with the fresh tomato. This cheddar would also be perfect for some stuffed jalapeno's, or any dish you are looking to add some great cheesy flavor to. All through the cheese you see the ingredient of red pepper and chives. This is a nice semi soft cheese, that has the taste of red peppers and chives in every bite you take. Almost like a delicate and buttery taste.





For a side dish, I made a nice smoked cheddar caramelized onion scalloped potato dish. A dish that is not only worthy of a Holiday side dish, but a real family pleaser. The smoked cheddar, from Sugar Maple Jerseys, was a nice blend of flavors, a cheddar flavor and a nice hickory smoke flavor. A true perfection for farm made cheese. Not only is this a wonderful addition for my potato dish, but the smoked cheddar would be fantastic coating a burger. The smoke flavor does not over power the cheese flavor at all. You get the taste of both in every bite. It is a very versatile cheese, that is creamy and melts beautiful in dish's. If you are looking for a cheese to add to your omelet's, pizza, or soufflés, don't over look a nice smoked cheddar. And don't over look grabbing some at, Sugar Maple Jerseys dairy farm.





Sometimes a product I get is a first, and the next cheese from, Sugar Maple Jerseys was. The flavor of the cheese was garlic basil cheddar, and I wanted to make something special with it. The basil and garlic in the cheddar cheese, elevated the flavor to the new level. It truly inspired me to try it in a baked pasta, since it had all the flavors I would need. A fresh garlic flavor, with bits of basil all through out the cheese. Being a first to try of this type of cheese, I was very pleased. The basil nor the garlic over took the true taste of the farm fresh cheddar cheese. It would be great for so many dish's, from pasta's to bread toppings and everything in between. It had a wonderful rich flavor, with a super creamy melt. And the best part it was very easy to grate.





The amount of cheese flavors just go on and on. The next from Sugar Maple Jerseys dairy farm, was their garlic dill cheddar, made with raw milk as well, with garlic and dill going on for flavor. The combo of these two ingredients, makes the cheddar cheese taste so fresh, and the garlic and dill enhance the cheddar cheese taste. It has the flecks of dill all through out, with a well balance garlic flavor. A true crowd pleaser, and a fresh summer taste. To go along with the meal, I used the Sugar Maple Jerseys dairy farm, garlic dill cheddar cheese in some home made biscuits. Inside and on the top, for some mouth watering biscuits. The cheese has a nice sublime balance of the dill herb, with a garlic flavor, that does not over take the taste of the raw cheddar cheese. Its fresh in every bite you taste, even has a little tang flavor from the dill and some sweet taste from the garlic. This will sure to be your family's next favorite flavor of cheese.





The last but not least, flavor from Sugar Maple Jerseys dairy farm, was their raw milk cheddar cheese. A well balance cheddar made with raw milk, to perfection. Very in depth in flavor, with a rich taste. If you are wanting to taste cheese made the traditional way, this is the cheese for you. This is some serious mouth watering cheddar. The evening ended with a nice apple cheddar galette, made with the raw milk cheddar from, Sugar Maple Jerseys dairy farm. A twist on a traditional apple pie, by adding a touch of cheddar cheese as the topping. If you have never tried it, you must. You get a nice sweet and a little tart, with some salty cheese flavor. Your taste buds, will remember this dessert for a while. The raw milk cheddar, was the perfect compliment to the galette. It gave it a nice rustic taste and melted so creamy and beautiful. Think about this, a cheddar crust, cheddar apples, with a maple syrup drizzle for some added sweetness.
