🇺🇸🍔🧀 LABOR DAY WEEKEND = BURGERS… and we have VERY strong opinions about what cheese belongs in them.

Our #1 burger cheese pick is Deer Creek Rattlesnake Cheddar. 🐍🔥

This handcrafted Wisconsin cheddar is made with tequila and habanero peppers, so you get that rich, creamy cheddar flavor with a spicy little kick at the end.

And on a burger?

RIDICULOUS. 🤤

But we're not just throwing a slice on top and calling it a day.

For our BONUS RECIPE this week, we're melting Rattlesnake Cheddar INTO the burger. 🍔🧀🔥

Yep. IN. THE. BURGER.

We'll drop the recipe in the comments, so you can grab some Rattlesnake today and make these for your Labor Day cookout!

And while you're here…

🍝🧀 CHEESE SHOP RECIPE THURSDAY: CREAMY RICOTTA W**E PASTA

We have whole-milk ricotta coming in this week, so obviously we had to figure out what we're doing with it. 😂

The answer?

Making dinner almost entirely from things you can grab at the cheese shop.

You'll need w**e pasta, whole-milk ricotta, pasta sauce, butter, olive oil, Italian seasoning, dried black garlic, and a good hard Italian cheese for finishing.

Cook your w**e pasta until al dente, saving about ½ cup of pasta water.
Meanwhile, warm your pasta sauce with a tablespoon of butter, a drizzle of olive oil, a good shake of Italian seasoning and a little dried black garlic. Start lightly…you can always add more.

Now make it creamy. 😍

Lower the heat and stir in a generous scoop of whole-milk ricotta, adding a splash of pasta water until the sauce becomes silky and coats the pasta beautifully.

Toss in your w**e pasta and finish with grated cheese, another tiny sprinkle of dried black garlic and a drizzle of olive oil.

AND BECAUSE CARBS DESERVE CARBS… 😂

Grab some of our 00 flour and make a simple homemade flatbread to go with it.

Flour + water + olive oil + salt → roll thin → cook in a hot skillet → brush with melted butter, Italian seasoning and a sprinkle of dried black garlic.

Boom. Cheese Shop Italian Night. 🇮🇹🍷🧀

And the best part? You can walk into Fleur de Lis and grab almost the entire dinner while you're supposedly “just stopping in for cheese.”

We've all heard that lie before. 😂

👇 RECIPE THURSDAY QUESTION: Are you team creamy ricotta mixed into the sauce or are you putting a giant dollop on top and swirling it in yourself?

IT’S CHEESE MYTH WEDNESDAY…and we have a doozy! 😅

🐛 MYTH:
“If mites have been on a cheese, that cheese has gone bad.”

🧀 TRUTH:
Not necessarily.

In fact, when it comes to traditional Mimolette, those teeny-tiny creatures are part of its very weird… and very cool aging story.

Mimolette is famous for its bright orange interior and that rough, cratered rind that looks a little like the surface of the moon. 🌕🧀

And part of what helps create that rind?

CHEESE MITES.

Yep. We said mites. 😂

During aging, microscopic mites live on the outside of the wheel and nibble away at the rind, helping create that unmistakable pitted exterior.

Now, before half of Wi******er starts yelling…

“THERE ARE BUGS IN THE CHEESE SHOP?!” 😂😂😂

NO.

Our Mimolette comes to us MITE-FREE. The wheel is cleaned before it makes its way to our cheese case.

There are no tiny French mites setting up housekeeping at Fleur de Lis. 😂🇫🇷🐛

What IS coming this week is a gorgeous 12-month-aged wheel of Mimolette…firm, nutty, rich, delicious and carrying one of the weirdest backstories in our case.

So the last time Mimolette came to Cheese School, it taught us about orange cheese.

This time?
BUGS.

We have a feeling Mimolette may have officially become our most problematic Cheese School student. 😂🧀

🧀🚨 TUESDAY CHEESE CHALLENGE: COME PLAY WITH US!

Okay, Facebook. We don't just want you to talk about cheese today. We want you to COME EAT SOME. 😂🧀

So we're turning this week's Tuesday Cheese Challenge into an IN-STORE challenge.

Here's how it works:
👉 Come into Fleur de Lis today.
👉 Spend $35 or more.
👉 Tell us you saw the Tuesday Cheese Challenge on Facebook.
👉 Then comes the fun part…

🕵️‍♀️ YOU GET A BLIND MYSTERY CHEESE TASTE!

We'll choose a cheese from the case for you to sample without telling you what it is first.

Your mission?

Tell us what you taste. 👀

🐄 Cow, goat or sheep?
🥛 Mild or funky?
🌰 Nutty? Buttery? Tangy? Earthy?
🌎 Local or imported?

There are NO WRONG ANSWERS. Cheese tasting is way more about what you taste than knowing the “correct” fancy cheese words.

Then we'll reveal the mystery cheese and see how close you got. 😏

And obviously, your $35 doesn't have to be all cheese. Grab some charcuterie, crackers, cannolis, pasta, sauces, accompaniments or whatever else starts mysteriously falling into your arms while you're here. 😂

🧀📚 MONDAY CHEESE SCHOOL IS IN SESSION!

And yes… Terri drew the lesson again. 😂 Gold stars for effort are still being accepted. ⭐️

Today we’re talking about one of our FAVORITE rules for pairing w**e and cheese:

🍷🧀 WHAT GROWS TOGETHER, GOES TOGETHER!

If you’ve ever heard a w**e person talk about terroir, they’re talking about how place, things like climate, soil, elevation and what grows there, helps shape what ends up in your glass.

Well… cheese has a sense of place, too.

What the animals eat, where they graze, the season, climate, local vegetation, cheesemaking traditions and aging can all help create cheeses that taste distinctly like where they came from.

And that gives us one ridiculously easy way to start pairing w**e and cheese:
Look at the map. 🌎

🍷 Sancerre? → Try a Loire Valley goat cheese.
🍷 Chianti? → Grab some Pecorino.
🍷 Burgundy? → Époisses is ready to get funky with you. 😂

W**e and cheese from the same region have been hanging out together for generations. Sometimes the pairing doesn't need to be complicated.

Of course, this isn't a law. There are AMAZING pairings that come from completely different places. But when you don't know where to start?

👉 What grows together, goes together.
And suddenly you sound very fancy at your next w**e and cheese night. 😂🍷🧀

👇 CHEESE SCHOOL QUESTION: If we gave you a plane ticket right now to eat cheese and drink w**e anywhere in the world, where are you going?

And please admire this week's highly sophisticated educational artwork. We spared absolutely no expense. 😂✌️❤️🧀

🌸🧀 A LITTLE GRAZING TABLE SNEAK PEEK… 🧀🌸

We spent part of today tucked away in the most beautiful country setting, creating a grazing table for a very special birthday celebration. 🎂

And the entire setting was absolutely gorgeous. Fresh local flower arrangements everywhere, beautiful countryside, and one seriously delicious table right in the middle of it all. 😍

We filled this one with artisan cheeses, charcuterie, fresh & dried fruits, crackers and all the little accompaniments plus elevated appetizers incorporated throughout the graze for something a little extra special. ✨

Basically…a whole lot of “Ohhhh, what’s THAT?!” happening on one…well two tables.😂 (Thanks to Terri’s famous cheese self-control)

Here’s just a little sneak peek because this table definitely deserves her own moment. 👀

Happy birthday to the guest of honor! Thank you for trusting Fleur de Lis to be part of such a beautiful celebration. ❤️

And yes…we took approximately 47,000 pictures. More are coming. 😂
✌️❤️🧀

🧀 LOCAL CHEESE. WORLD-CLASS CHEESE. ONE VERY FULL CASE. 🧀

We’re showing our local makers some extra love this weekend! ❤️

Our case is packed with local features from right here in Virginia & West Virginia alongside the ridiculous selection of imported cheeses you know we can’t stop bringing home. 😂

So whether you’re in the mood to eat close to home or take your tastebuds on a little European vacation without leaving Wi******er…we’ve got you.
And even better…

🙌 ALLAN IS IN ALL WEEKEND! 🙌

Come tell him what you like, try something you’ve never had before, and let him help you find your next “wait…WHY is this so good?!” cheese.

Build a snack plate. Grab something for dinner. Stock the fridge for the week. Or just come in because cheese sounded good. That is a perfectly acceptable reason. 😂

🎂🧀 RECIPE THURSDAY: BIRTHDAY EDITION! 🧀🎂

It’s Recipe Thursday AND it’s Terri’s birthday, so obviously we’re not making something sensible. 😂

We’re making a Cannoli Farmer’s Cheese Birthday Cheesecake…because when you own a cheese shop, apparently even your birthday cake needs cheese.

This beauty starts with a buttery Lady Joseph shortbread cookie crust, gets filled with creamy Gina Marie Farmer Cheese, orange zest, vanilla and mini chocolate chips...and then we completely lose control. 🤷‍♀️

The top gets loaded with our imported Italian cannolis + Just the Fun Part waffle cones because choosing between cheesecake, cannolis and chocolate-filled waffle cones seemed unnecessarily responsible.

And the best part? You can grab the specialty ingredients right here at the shop and make this ridiculous little masterpiece at home. 🙌

Fair warning: this is absolutely not the recipe for the person who says “I just want a little something sweet.”

This is the recipe for the person who says:
IT’S MY BIRTHDAY. BRING ME THE CHEESECAKE. 😂🎂

P.S. Birthday calories don't count. I checked.

🧀 CHEESE MYTH WEDNESDAY: “Where the cheese is made doesn’t really matter.”

Ohhhh, but it can. 👀

Cheese can have something called terroir…basically, a taste of place. The land, what the animals eat, the season, the milk and the cheesemaker’s methods can all leave their fingerprints on the finished cheese. Researchers have even found that cheeses made with milk sourced from different farms can develop noticeably different flavors.
Which makes this week at Fleur de Lis especially fun…

🐐 We’re bringing in three goat cheeses made locally in Martinsburg, WV
🐄 Plus a cow’s milk cheese made in Middleburg, VA

And they’ll be hanging out in the case alongside cheeses that have traveled to us from all over the world. 🌎🧀

Because LOCAL doesn’t mean “less fancy,” and IMPORTED doesn’t automatically mean “better.”

They simply tell different stories.
One might taste like the fields practically in our backyard. Another carries generations of cheesemaking tradition from halfway around the world.
And frankly, we see absolutely no reason to choose sides. 😂

Local roots. Global flavors. One ridiculously good cheese case.

Come taste the difference with us this weekend. ❤️🧀
