Seasonal Skillets Wisconsin Milk Marketing Board

In today’s market, diners are looking for signs of fresh fare, and this appetizer combines craveability with seasonality beautifully. It’s also ultimately shareable, serving up a satisfying, sociable cheese dip. Blending savory and sweet, grape tomatoes and fresh peaches are quickly browned in a skillet over high heat, intensifying their flavors, then topped with Wisconsin Fontina and Parmesan cheese. A touch of black pepper and fresh rosemary further elevate the nutty, earthy flavors of the cheese. “The combination creates a spoonable, hearty dip served with baguette slices,” says Heather Porter Engwall, Director of National Product Communications. “This simple preparation can be adapted to use a variety of seasonal fruits and vegetables—asparagus and spring onions with Gouda; sweet corn, zucchini and bell peppers with mozzarella and basil; cherries and apples with Brie.”
