Emerald Valley Artisans Debuts New Cheese

Among tables of friends, peers, and fellow farmers, Emerald Valley Artisans will be setting up at Farm to Table with some exciting news to debut. “It’s our highlight show for the year,” says Alisa Fava-Fasnacht, co-owner of Emerald Valley. “We get so much love.” Along with samples of all of the farm’s cheeses, the table will have a tasting on Friday night, March 18, prepared by Executive Chef Kevin Hermann of The Porch at Schenley, which will feature its newest offering: Black Truffle Ricotta Chiesi. The fresh-pressed ricotta is brined in black truffle-infused salt from Steel City Salt Company, which saturates the cheese with the mushroom’s bold flavor. “We were inspired by Kevin, and we’re excited to see what he has up his sleeve.” Emerald Valley has a few tricks up its own sleeve, including a special announcement that will affect where and how its cheese is available.
