Good Eating
featuring an easy healthy recipe by cook Adie McClelland
CHEESE SOUFFLÉ
As a nod to the 80's, especially 1989, this
month Adie uses Burger Wisconsin's all natural block Colby cheddar
cheese to make a tasty baked Cheese
Soufflé.
Soufflé gained popularity in the 1980's as a
dish to impress guests. It was perceived to be a tricky dish to
make, but using Adie's recipe below you will discover how easy a
Soufflé is to whip up.
My mother-in-law, Philly, sent me this recipe
when I first went to Greece and got a job as a cook on a yacht.
Fair to say I was as surprised as the guests when the soufflé
emerged from the oven in all its glory, risen to a great height,
light and fluffy inside and utterly delicious.

Best Ingredients
because you like to know what you’re eating
At Burger Wisconsin we only use New Zealand
natural whole milk matured block cheeses. We use the block
Colby
Cheddar, creamy Camembert
plus the tangy Blue Cheese in
your burgers.
Other burger outlets often use processed
cheeses [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Processed_cheese] that may
often contain additives, emulsifiers and extras you don't want to
eat. Often their processed cheese slice is only 50-60% cheese,
which is why their cheese burgers lack the distinctive flavour
& texture of natural whole milk cheese.
The natural block cheeses, all made in New
Zealand, we use are .....

Do you remember this song, from the boys Ches & Dale?
 "We are boys from down on the farm, we really
know our cheese …."

only black & white!

Salvador Dali and Camembert
The surrealist Spanish painter, Salvador Dali,
was inspired by Camembert cheese.
On a hot summers day while painting he noticed his camembert,
leftover from lunch, had melted. Coupled with a dream of clocks,
the camembert was inspiration for "The
Persistence of Memory", painted in 1931. The painting was from
his period of comparing 'softness' and 'hardness'. The painting is
one of his more famous pieces and hangs in the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New
York.

Beer Festival
Burger Wisconsin provided our great burgers at the recent Beer
Festival.
The Liquorland Beer
Festival is a showcase of many boutique beers and brewers from
around New Zealand. If you like a cleansing ale the Beer Festival
is an event for you.
Unfortunately the Wellington weather was terrible. It rained all
day. While there were not many keen beer drinkers braving the
weather, those that did had a great day sampling beers, eating
burgers and dancing to the bands in the rain.
Our team soldiered on serving the people with the best
burgers.
Check it out next year.
