42. Sleeping Beauty Cheese: Chef Sarah Minnick & Cascadia Creamery

Season Four of Ingredient Insiders kicks off the West Coast tour with a stop in Portland, Oregon, with Chef Sarah Minnick, owner of Lovely’s Fifty Fifty.Sarah gives us an inside look at how she pivots the menu, sometimes daily, to reflect the in-season offerings of the local Pacific Northwest farmers. A true farm-to-table restaurant, Lovely’s Fifty Fifty creates some of Portland's best pizza and ice cream and was featured in Netflix’s Chef’s Table pizza season.Part of Sarah’s commitment to working with local producers brings us to John Shuman of Cascadia Creamery and his Sleeping Beauty Cheese. This local, organic, raw milk cheese is produced from the milk of cows that graze on the grass of the Cascade mountains.Smooth and buttery with a supple sharpness and named after the legendary “Beauty” that came between the mighty Pahto (Mt. Adams) and Wy'East (Mt. Hood) peaks, this cheese can move mountains.You can watch our interview with Sarah on YouTube HERE!
