A Collection of Recipes by Chefs’ for Chefs.

OUR STORY

In 1956 following the Korean War, two Cypriot cousins, once

immigrants, now Veterans, returned to New York City and

joined forces. The Veterans’ Butter and Egg Company was

soon founded in a small warehouse on Greenwich Street.

Peter Pappas, an original partner, found immediate success

with the company that provided butter, eggs and cheese to

many of New York City’s restaurants.

Peter had two sons, Christopher & John, who grew up in the

business, helping after school and during summer vacations.

After college, Chris was recruited to play basketball in

Europe professionally. This experience enabled Chris to

discover many of Europe’s culinary splendors. Inspired by

his experience, Chris sensed a real business opportunity in

providing unique foods & superior ingredients to chefs back

at home. Upon his return to the United States, he recruited

his brother John, & together they transformed Veterans’

Butter and Egg Company into Dairyland USA, with hopes

of becoming a major distributor. Throughout the following

35 years, Chris & John led the company through major

expansion & development to become The Chefs’ Warehouse.

WHO WE ARE

APPETIZERS

Directions

1. Place all cheeses on board first. Plan the board around the cheese options. Firm cheese should be placed to start and more moist/

fresh cheese last. Cut the firm cheese in different styles. Place cheese options opposite each other to give a more aesthetically

pleasing appeal. Spread the different cheeses around the layout of board. You can also place any empty bowls you may intend to fill.

2. Place charcuterie on board, strategically around cheese and accoutrement bowls but keep in mind of other items to add after the

meats. Cut pepperoni circles into half moons or fold salami into fourths to make rivers and delicately place sliced prosciutto into little

circular roses. You can always readjust after adding the accoutrements.

3. Be sure any sliced or cut fresh produce is slightly dry before placing on board. Leave any produce out on paper towel an hour in

advance to building the board. After confirming it is slightly dried, place produce near cheese options and around any bowls used for

jams or honey. Keep in mind of the flavor profile of the cheese you are placing it next to.

4. Place crunchy items on your board, cracker assortments, baguette slices, breadsticks and any nut options you may have. Also add any

crunchy dry produce sticks you may be using.

5. Fill any bowls you may have placed on the board. Don’t forget to leave utensils near the board for serving.

6. Garnish your board with fresh herbs or edible flowers. And don’t forget to add cheese knives or serving utensils.

7. Serve and enjoy your board!

CHEESE & CHARCUTERIE BOARD TIPS

• Pre-slice or cube any firm cheese. Blue cheese can be crumbled or placed in wedges on board. Fresh cheese should be placed on

boards last to keep from spreading as they come to room temperature. Always choose an assortment of firmness, flavors, and ripeness

when picking options.

• Leave small cheese knives or toothpicks on or around the board so guest are not using their fingers to pick.

• Put olives, cornichons, jams, honey and or any nuts you do not want scattered on the board into small bowls.

• Pre-slice your charcuterie. After slicing, fold the salami into quarters and preplace your meats on the board. Cut circular charcuterie into

half moons.

• Nuts and crackers need little to no preparation. Leave these for last.

• Pre cut or slice any large size produce and leave aside on paper towel for about an hour. You do not want moist or freshly cut produce

on the board.

• Leave out a side plate with additional crackers or baguettes slices.

GRAFTON VILLAGE

CLOTHBOUND CHEDDAR

SKU # 10453425

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Spray a baking sheet with cooking oil and

top with parchment.

2. Using a micrograter or the finest side on your box grater, grate

the Grafton Village Clothbound Cheddar into a bowl.

3. In a separate small bowl, combine spices.

4. Using your fingers or a spoon, scoop the grated cheese into

1-inch mounds on baking sheet, leaving approximately 1-inch

between each. Top the mounds with a sprinkle of spice mixture.

5. Place baking sheet on top oven rack. Bake for 5 to 9 minutes,

watching carefully until the melted cheese has stopped bubbling

and the edges are slightly tanned. To avoid bitterness, be careful

not to let edges get too brown.

6. Remove baking sheet from the oven and allow to sit for 2 minutes.

With a soft spatula, transfer each frico to a cooling rack (cover the

cooling rack with a paper towel first, to absorb any oil from the

fricos). Serve with your favorite jams (we recommend apple or

dark berry), or top with a crisp apple slice.

Dough

• 1 3/4 cups + 2 tbsp (225 g) - King Arthur

Unbleached Bread Flour

• 1 tsp - instant yeast or active dry yeast

• 1 1/2 tsp - salt

APPETIZERS

Directions

Biga

1. Stir the water, flour, and yeast together, cover, and let rest at room temperature for 12 to 16 hours.

Dough

1. Add the water to the biga, mixing to incorporate the two. Combine the flour, yeast, and salt in a separate bowl, and

add to the biga-water mixture. Mix on low speed of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook until the dough becomes

cohesive, about 2 minutes. Increase the mixer to medium speed and knead to form an elastic, sticky dough, about 3 to

4 minutes. Resist the urge to add more flour unless the dough is truly “soupy.”

2. Cover the dough in the bowl, let it rise for 1 hour, then gently deflate it. Let it rise another hour, then turn it out onto a

liberally floured work surface, and sprinkle lots of flour on top.

3. Flatten the dough to an 8” x 10” rectangle and cut it into two pieces, each 4” x 10”.

4. Transfer the loaves onto a piece of parchment, leaving about 6” between them. Cover with a lightly greased piece of

plastic wrap or a freestanding plastic cover, and let rise until they’re very puffy, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.

5. About 30 minutes before the loaves are ready to bake, preheat the oven to 500°F. If you have a baking stone, place it in

the middle of the oven when you start preheating, so it gets nice and hot.

6. Spritz the dough with water; or add steam to your oven (see “Cooking Tips” below). If you’re baking on a stone,

transfer the bread to the stone, parchment and all. If you’re using a pan, transfer the loaves on their parchment to a

baking sheet, and place them on a middle rack of the oven. Lower the oven temperature to 425°F.

7. Bake the ciabatta until it’s golden brown, approximately 22 to 25 minutes. Turn the oven off, place ciabatta on the

oven’s middle rack (remove the stone if you’ve used one), crack the door open about 2-inches, and allow ciabatta to

cool completely in the turned-off oven.

COOKING TIPS

• For extra-crusty crust and the best rise, add steam to your oven as follows:

1. While the oven is preheating, place an empty cast iron frying pan on the oven rack below the stone. If possible, adjust stone and

pan so that the pan isn’t directly under the stone, making it easier for steam to reach the baking bread.

2. Once you’ve placed the bread in the oven, pour about 1 cup of boiling water into the cast iron frying pan. Steam will billow from

the pan upwards to envelop the baking bread; be sure to wear good oven mitts to shield your hands and arms. Quickly close the

oven door to trap the steam.

Directions

Garlic Cilantro Mojo

1. Mix the olive oil with the onions and garlic. Heat this mix together in a

sauce pot at low heat. Cook for approximately 10 minutes until onions

are translucent. Keep heat at a low temperature to avoid color on garlic &

onions.

2. Once onions are soft, remove from heat and place the mixture of olive oil,

onions, and garlic in a bowl. Cool for 15 minutes then add the juice of 1

lime and the chopped cilantro.

3. Mix and season with salt and pepper.

Tostones

1. Peel plantains and cut crosswise into 1/2-inch chunks.

2. Heat oil to 300°F and blanch the plantains in oil until tender. This will take

approximately 5 minutes.

3. Once plantains are tender, remove from oil and place on paper towels

to drain and cool for another 5 minutes. (Reserve the oil in the pan for a

second frying.)

4. Working with one plantain chunk at a time, place the plantain between 2

sheets of parchment or wax paper. Use the back of a frying pan to press

and flatten the plantain. Apply equal pressure to get an even thickness.

5. Raise the oil temperature to 375°F and refry each flattened plantain until

golden brown and crispy, approx. another 3-5 minutes.

6. Remove from oil and drain on paper towels. Sprinkle some kosher salt

over the top. To serve, place a spoonful of the Garlic-Cilantro Mojo on top.

tray, or as an addition to a tea or mini dessert presentation.

• Do not overwhip the eggs: 3 minutes/medium speed hand mixer, is all

you need.

• Do not overbake: the texture is perfectly crisp on the outside soft on the

inside when slightly under-baked.

• These cookies store really well in the freezer: Wrap logs in paper or

plastic and store in freezer and you’ll have ready to bake cookies at your

fingertips.

Chocolate Substitutions

• If you don’t have 38% Soleil d’Or on hand, Guittard’s Milk Maxi Chip

works well. Great performing substitutions for the 64% Etoile du Nord

are 72% Coucher du Soleil and 72% Onyx.
