Smokey BBQ Cheeseburger

2 pers
30 min

Peel and crush 3 cloves of garlic. Bring a medium pan of water to the boil and cook the garlic cloves with it. Cut the sweet potato lengthwise into 4 equal slices. Cook the sweet potato slices al dente for five minutes and rinse with cold water. Chop the cheese, red onion, cucumber and gherkin. Grill the sweet potato on one side on the barbecue or in a pan. Grill the burgers as well. Remove half of the sweet potato slices and burgers from the barbecue or pan and place them with the grilled side up. Place the cheese slices on top and grill again bottom-side down on the barbecue or in the pan. Finish the burgers by placing the spinach on top of the cheese, then the burgers with cheese on top and the rest of the garnish on top. Brush the sweet potato slices you will use for the top of the cheeseburger with crème fraîche and place them on top of the burger.

Spicy nachos

4 pers
15 min

Nachos are simple, tasty and can be enjoyed as a snack but also definitely as a meal! Spread the chips in an oven dish or on a baking tray. Grate a nice amount of cheese over the chips (200-300g can easily be done!). To make spicy nachos, we chose the chilli cheese. Bake this for 6-8 minutes in the oven at 200 degrees. Remove from the oven and sprinkle the drained Kesbeke Mexican mix on top. This is fresh AND spicy thanks to the acid and jalapeños. Serve with the creme fraîche, salsa and guacamole and enjoy!

Soft Greek pita with tzatziki cheese

6 pers
100 min

Do you love sandwiches and rolls or pita's with melted cheese? Then this Greek cheese pita is definitely for you! Preparation: Mix the flour and yeast together in a mixing bowl and slowly pour in the wet ingredients and sugar or honey. Mix/knead for about 10 minutes into a nice smooth dough. Add the salt and knead for another 5 minutes or so. Let the dough rise in the mixing bowl for about an hour under a damp tea towel. The dough will start to rise and roughly double in size. Divide the dough into 6 balls and roll out into nice flat rounds. (In Greece, pitas are often folded in half instead of being cut open. They are folded around the filling like a wrap, so these can also be larger than supermarket pitas) Use flour to prevent sticking to the countertop/work surface. Fry in a hot pan with a little olive oil. Fry one side for about 2 minutes, and the other side for about a minute. Then top half of the pita with the tzatziki cheese and fold it in half. Sprinkle some grated cheese over the top as well and continue baking for a few minutes until the cheese melts. Be generous with the cheese as the pitas are quite large and very fluffy.

Cheese croquettes

5 pers
30 min

This is how you make about 25 cheese croquettes: Soak the gelatine in cold water. Meanwhile, melt the butter with the garlic clove in a pan over medium-high heat. Once the butter is melted add the flour and stir until cooked. Keep stirring and then add the stock little by little until everything is absorbed. Turn off the heat and add the cheese, mustard, onion powder, pepper, soaked gelatine and salt. Stir well and then put the mixture in a baking dish with foil over it. Leave it to cool for an hour outside the fridge and then another about 4 hours in the fridge. For breadcrumbs, put the flour, eggs and breadcrumbs each in a separate deep dish. Roll balls of the cheese mixture and pass through the flour, then the egg and then the breadcrumbs. Put them in the fridge for a while and then it's time to deep-fry. About 3 minutes per ball.

Baguette with meatballs in tomato sauce gratinated with Henri Willig Gouda cheese

2 pers

A delicious recipe with meatballs and lots of cheese is easy to make: Preheat the oven to 180 degrees Celsius. Mix the minced meat, egg, onion, garlic, oregano, basil, paprika, salt and pepper in a bowl. Knead everything well together. Form small meatballs from the mixture. You can decide how big you want the meatballs to be. Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Fry the meatballs in the pan until browned on all sides. Add the diced tomatoes and tomato puree to the pan. Stir everything well and bring the sauce to a boil. Simmer for about 10 minutes to allow the flavours to mix well. Add any extra salt and pepper to taste. Meanwhile, grate the cheese -about 60 to 100 grams- but more is always possible! Cut open your baguette, place the meatballs inside and sprinkle with grated Gouda matured by Henri Willig. Put in an oven at 180 degrees for another 7 minutes so the cheese melts. You could also use the airfryer, in which case the baking time will be shorter.

Cheese board with cheese butterflies

4 pers
60 min

We made this plank for Mother's Day. They actually deserve such a tasty board every day! Get creative and cut different cheeses into different shapes. Think cubes, dots, strips and so on. Distribute all supplies on the board and give it your own twist. We made the cheese butterflies based on a recipe by Cees Holtkamp and we used our own cheese for this. Ingredients: 6 slices of buttercream puff pastry 40 grams of butter 100 grams grated Henri Willig Cow Gold mature cow's cheese Salt White pepper Curry Preparation: Take 6 thawed slices of buttercream puff pastry and lay them on top of each other. Roll this out to a slice of about 30x40 cm Then make the cream. Put 40 grams of butter and 100 grams of grated mature cow cheese together in a bowl and mix until creamy. Make sure the cheese and butter are not cold, otherwise it will not mix together nicely. Once this is done, season with salt, white pepper and curry. Spread the cheese cream over the puff pastry but leave a border free over the long side, otherwise there will be a double amount of cream there. Fold the puff pastry inwards. Do this from both sides in 2 steps. So first fold in a strip of about 7 cm on both sides. And then repeat this again until both sides come together. Then brush one side with egg and fold the parts together. Now put the dough in the fridge for 1-2 hours to stiffen, so you can cut easily and sharply later. Remove the dough from the fridge, cut thin 2-4 mm strips and place on a baking tray lined with baking paper. You can make about 50-60 cheese butterflies with this recipe. Is the baking tray filled? Then bake the butterflies for 20 minutes at 170 °C Let them cool for a while and serve these pretty butterflies on the cheese board.

Chicken-cheese sandwiches

Delectable sandwiches with grilled chicken, a delicious apricot spread, tomato, mayo, lettuce, avocado and our delicious young Gouda cheese. Truly a top combination! Preparation: Flatten the chicken breast and cut into 2 pieces. Mix the herbs with the olive oil and roll the chicken in it. Grill the chicken in a grill pan or in a contact grill until nicely browned and cooked on both sides. For each stack, take 3 casino sandwiches and toast them in a toaster, oven or contact grill until nice and crispy. Brush the first sandwich with the apricot dip, top with some lettuce and then the chicken. Spread a second sandwich with mayo and top with cheese, tomato and avocado slices. Sprinkle with a little salt and pepper. Place this sandwich on top of the first and put the third sandwich on top. Carefully cut diagonally until you have two triangles. Then cut these triangles again into 2 smaller triangles and insert a skewer so it sticks together nicely. @Ellouisacooking made these sandwiches for us, and we are definitely going to try this recipe ourselves!

A cheese board for dessert, but with Dutch cheese! A super easy recipe. Cut the different cheeses into nice slices or strips and place them on the plate. The most important thing is to get the order right. Start with the mild flavours and finish with the powerful cheese that has a strong flavour. On these plates, the order is as follows: - Young gouda, a creamy soft cow's cheese - Young sheep's cheese - Mature goat's cheese - Old cow's cheese - Extra old goat's cheese Lay these slices or strips neatly side by side on the plate and add a spoonful of apple syrup to the plate. Also add a few pieces of the cracker and a handful of nuts. These can again neutralise your taste between the different cheese flavours so that you taste each cheese well. And that was it! In short, a super easy dessert but still very pretty and flavourful.

Cheese board 'something for everyone'

6 pers
20 min

A drinks board with quite a bit of variety! Indeed, on this board we have used young, old and smoked cheese, and that from cow's milk, goat's milk and sheep's milk. Cut the cheeses into different shapes. On this board, we choose strips, cubes, dots and wedges. The herb garlic cheese is cut into strips. This works best if you halve the cheese first. Then you make slices and turn these slices into the strips. We cut the fenugreek cheese into cubes. In doing so, we cut out a piece where you can put the cubes in between. And if you run out of cubes, you can just cut another piece off, of course! The old sheep's cheese can be sliced along the side. Because the piece of cheese is cut out of a larger wheel, you get those nice long slices of cheese. The smoked goat's cheese is cylindrical and by cutting it lengthwise and then cutting the halves again, you get long strips that you can then cut into smaller wedges. Spread the cheese on your board, and top it off with crackers, nuts and cheese salts. This plank also has apple segments and we chose 2 tasty mustards that taste good with the cheese. The plank is ready, time to enjoy!

A delicious valentine's breakfast with Henri Willig cheese <3  This is a healthy, delicious and special one, to make for whoever deserves it! Preparing the omelet rolls:  Mix the eggs with the chili flakes, pepper and salt. Put some butter in the pan and put a very thin layer of egg mixture in the pan. Put the red pesto cheese on top of the egg and a lid on the pan. Now let the cheese melt and the egg cook on a slightly lower heat. Roll up the omelet and serve with the chives. Preparation of the blinis Mix the flour with the milk and yeast. Then add the eggs and salt and mix well. Fry the blinis in some butter for about 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Cover the blinis with the bresaola, then a slice of cheese. Put the slices (without stacking them) in a preheated oven at 200 degrees until the cheese is melted. Now put the tomato slices on top and stack them. Serve with the cress. The kletzen bread is nice to eat with it and tastes great with the goat cheese and the pineapple ginger dip.

          A delicious spicy cheese board!  Cut the baguette into very thin slices. Mix 3 tablespoons of arachid oil with the grated garlic clove, add some salt.

Christmas Cheese Sticks

This ultimate snack you just make yourself! In Christmas colors!!! How fun is that.  Thanks to @courgetticonfetti for the beautiful photos and delicious recipe. The colorful and amazingly delicious cheeses she used  are from @henriwillig Recipe (20 cheese sticks)✨ 1. Allow the filo dough to thaw. 2. If you are using your oven, preheat it to 220 degrees. If you use an airfryer, then you do not need to preheat it. 3. Take one large piece of filo pastry. Spray both sides with baking spray or lightly grease with a little olive oil. Then cut it into quarters (so you have 4 squares). Repeat this later with the rest of the filo pastry, so that you get a total of 20 smaller pieces. 4. Place a strip of cheese on the edge of a piece of filo pastry. Fold the outer edges of the filo dough over the cheese so that the ends are covered, and now roll the cheese all the way up in the filo dough. Like rolling up a burrito. 5. Repeat this with all the pieces of filo dough and strips of cheese. 6. Bake the cheese sticks for 3 minutes in your airfryer at 180 degrees (I find it works best!) or 4-5 minutes in your oven at 220 degrees. Until they are beautifully golden brown! Nice with some sweet chili or mayo! Enjoy ❤️

Dutch pancakes with cheese

4 pers
30 min

Every day is pancake day with these pancakes. Preparation Pancake batter:  Put the flour in a large mixing bowl and stir in a pinch of salt. Make a well in the middle and break the eggs over it. Pour in about ¼ of the milk and mix with a whisk or mixer to a smooth batter. Add the rest of the milk a little at a time while mixing. Baking: Heat a little butter in a frying pan and let it melt. Pour or scoop some batter into the pan (about 1 tablespoon) and let it flow over the whole surface. Then move the pan gently up and down to make sure the pancake is loose. Turn it over and fry the other side until lightly browned. Turn it over again and sprinkle with cheese, put a lid on the pan and let the cheese melt for another minute.  You can serve the pancake immediately, or bake a whole stack. There are various ways of making the perfect cheese pancake: - Bake one side of the pancake, turn it over, put cheese on top and bake it. Cheese does not bake, but sticks to the stack on the next pancake. - If necessary, bake one side first, turn over, cheese on top and turn over again to bake the cheese. This way the cheese gets nice and crispy (be careful that it does not burn on in the pan). - Bake one side of the pancake, turn it over and cover half of it with cheese. Then fold the pancake in half and bake both sides. The cheese does not burn or stick to the stack of other pancakes. - Put a thin layer of pancake batter in the pan. Wait a moment and then put the cheese slices on top. When the cheese has melted a bit, put another layer of pancake batter on top. Now you can flip the pancake when the top layer has hardened a little. Pancakes are delicious with apple syrup, strawberry jam, but also with spinach or bacon.

Pasta with Black Sheep Cheese

4 pers
75 min

Preparation Peel the garlic and crush or cut it. Cut the crust of the sheep's cheese with a sharp knife. Remove the crust from the cheese. Hollow out the sheep's cheese and store this. Keep about half of these chunks of sheep's cheese for another time in an oven dish, on a croissant or over the tortillia chips. A la minute Melt the other half of the sheep's cheese with a gas burner (which you use for creme brulee, for example) and extinguish it with a dash of cognac, making the cheese delicious "flambé". Melt the mixture into a nice cheese sauce and melt the cheese generously: the melted cheese provides the amount of cheese sauce you want through the spaghetti. Add the garlic and the Henri Willig roasted tomato dip and stir well. Meanwhile, cook the spaghetti according to the instructions on the packaging. Add the cooked spaghetti directly to the cheese sauce in the hollowed out cheese and spoon it through. Garnish with fresh sage. Side dish A delicious tomato salad with large cheese crumbs completes it all. Tip The hollowed out cheese can be processed several times. If you want to give a great live spaghetti demonstration at your table, make it for yourself first: this way you'll get the hang of it. Scrape the cheese well and burn the cheese with the gas burner, so that all leftovers are removed (hygiene and turnover speed of the cheese is important and determine the shelf life). After use, store the cheese in the refrigerator below 4 degrees Celsius. Start the recipe again when the guests come to feast. The cheese can be used until the last crumble, in soup, with appetizers or in the cheese fondue.
