Top Chef, Ariane Duarte shares with us, “ My real secret is knowing that all cheese is not created equal.” “Whether I’m choosing ingredients for the restaurant or for my family, quality is my first concern. I use Finlandia® cheeses in my recipes as they are all natural, hormone-free and naturally lactose-free, and I especially like the superior taste.” I have to admit that I didn't know that about these! Did you?
