Ferry Building Throwback: San Francisco Egg Cream
Posted by Cowgirl Creamery onToday (April 10th) marks our last day in the Ferry Building, and we're throwing it back with a Sidekick Café classic from our founders Peg & Sue: The San Francisco Egg Cream. Showcasing Straus Family Creamery organic milk and Recchiuti's chocolate sauce, this warm-weather quencher is a foamy, refreshing taste of the Bay.
Rhubarb & Meyer Lemon Preserves
Posted by Cowgirl Creamery onMade with only three ingredients—rhubarb, Meyer lemons and sugar—these preserves from our friend @fromheadtotable are pink, rosy sunshine in a jar. The honeyed, sweetness of the rhubarb pairs perfectly with bright, aromatic Meyer lemons. These preserves are a delight served alongside a selection of cheeses, from classic Mt.

Penne with Green Garlic Fresh Cheese Sauce
Posted by Cowgirl Creamery onThis springtime take on mac and cheese is a Cowgirl favorite: our organic Cottage Cheese & Crème Fraîche combine with green garlic and tomatoes for a not-too-rich, creamy sauce.

Our Ricotta-Asparagus Soufflé is light and creamy while still being hearty enough for those lingering cool spells. Ricotta adds milky body, but the real trick is using fresh eggs, which ensure the whites get extra fluffy. Don't have ricotta? Try swapping in our Organic Fromage Blanc, which brightens up springtime dish.
Remembering the Ferry Building

Cantina Classic Grilled Cheese with Wagon Wheel and Hop Along
Posted by Cowgirl Creamery on
Is there anything more satisfying than a classic grilled cheese? Our trick for the ultimate sandwich is to layer cheeses, like our organic Wagon Wheel and Hop Along. The aged cheese lends flavor and that quintessential stretchy texture — it's the perfect grilled cheese, which is why it's a favorite at our Point Reyes Cantina. How do you grilled cheese?
Rustic Cheese and Onion Galettes, Two Ways
Posted by Cowgirl Creamery on
We love a rustic galette not only for its buttery, flaky base, but also for its versatility no matter the season. Here we top with onions, bacon, and any grating bits and bobs like our organic Wagon Wheel or Hop Along, or try a fresh cheese like our creamy Fromage Blanc with herbs and lemon.

Our Fromage Blanc is tangy and luscious–the perfect vehicle for your favorite spices and seasonings. From roasted garlic & herbs to chocolate-espresso, we love these quick-and-easy dips for snacks, sandwiches, and effortless entertaining.
