May Cheese of the Month: Emmi Emmentaler
| 
Emmentaler is originally a cheese from Switzerland. It is sometimes known as Swiss cheese in the United States, although Swiss cheese does not always imply Emmentaler. The semi-hard cheese originally comes from the Emme valley.
The guidelines for “original Emmentaler” require the cheese to be aged for a minimum of four months. It is produced in a round shape with a natural rind and aged in traditional cellars. The original Emmentaler exists with different age profiles: classic – four months, reserve – eight months, and Premier Cru – 14 months.
Emmi Emmentaler of Switzerland continues to be handcrafted the traditional way in small village dairies according to recipes handed down for more than 450 years. The milk used is delivered twice a day. It is produced with raw cow’s milk, adding only natural ingredients (water, salt, natural starter cultures and rennet). Preservatives or ingredients from genetically modified organisms are not allowed.
Now only $13.99 lb.

Sendik’s to support MACC Fund throughout Brewers Season
| 
Promotion includes donation for each stolen base
Milwaukee, Wis. – Sendik’s Food Markets, home of the ‘Red Bag,’ will be making a $100 donation to the MACC Fund for each stolen bag by the Milwaukee Brewers this season. The family-owned grocer has partnered with the MACC Fund during recent holiday seasons to sell the MACC*Stars, among other holiday events, and this expansion of the partnership will help raise awareness for the charity throughout the year.
“The MACC Fund does fantastic work in our community fighting childhood cancer,” said Nick Balistreri, who owns Sendik’s, along with brothers Ted and Patrick, and sister, Margaret Harris. “We think this is a great, fun way to help support their mission and expand our partnership. We all love cheering on the Brewers. And of course, we’ll also now be cheering for even more stolen bases this season.”
Balistreri-owned-and-operated Sendik’s will be working with FOX Sports Wisconsin and the Brewers Radio Network to keep fans informed of the donation tally and increase visibility for the MACC Fund. Fans can also track the progress on Sendik’s website – sendiksmarket.com – and the FOX Sports Wisconsin website all season long.
“The MACC Fund is honored to be part of this great promotion with its friends from Sendik’s Food Markets,” said John Cary, executive director of the MACC Fund. “Teaming up with Sendik’s and the Brewers will raise important funds through the excitement of Brewers baseball while also increasing awareness for the research supported by the MACC Fund. Being part of the Sendik’s Food Markets ‘Red Bag for Charity’ means so much to the MACC Fund and the children it helps.”

This process results in a bold cheese with both nut and mushroom notes. The world took notice in November when this cheddar took Gold at the World Cheese Awards in England.

|
$8,000 donation will be used for new scoreboard
With new safety regulations for water depth imposed by the National Federation of High Schools, the local Whitefish Bay boys and girls swim team have been limited to only one home meet each season. This prompted the school to undertake a $200,000 fundraising campaign to renovate the current pool facility. Sendik’s was happy to lend support to the effort by providing $8,000 to sponsor a new scoreboard. The entire renovation will improve the pool’s safety and return the traditional home pool advantage to the proud swimming teams at Whitefish Bay high school. Read the rest of this entry »
