Recently, I team-up with foodmsia to participate the Real California Milk Cheese Platter Cook-Off Challenge at TCH Foodworks, Petaling Jaya. We were given a few types of Real California Milk cheeses to create our cheese platter in 1 hour. It was a fun and exciting experience, prior to that we also plan our cheese platter theme, and did some groceries shopping for our cheese platter ingredients.

During the session, Certified Executive Chef Barbara Alexander, with over 30 years’ experience in the Culinary and Hospitality field created four scrumptious recipes using Real California Cheese – Blue Cheese Chips, Korean Cheese Dogs, Iced Coffee Cheesecake Cream Puffs and Buffalo Chicken & Blue Cheese Pizza. 

Chef Barbara explained that these recipes are easy-to-make and are highly popular with Asians, especially great to serve at family gatherings as well as for quick meals. 

Chef Barbara elaborated, “One ounce of natural cheese, such as Cheddar, Jack, or Mozzarella, contains approximately 20% of a person’s recommended daily calcium intake. Those who are lactose-sensitive, or lactose-intolerant can still enjoy cheese if they eat natural hard (aged) or soft-ripened varieties, which contain little or no lactose.”
