Course Overview

Can’t whey-t to take your home cheesemaking to the next level? Make your favorite cheese anytime you want. You will learn the basics of cheese making during class and then be able to replicate and experiment at home. We’ll cover milks, starters, bacteria, molds, and common household equipment for cheese making that you probably already have in your kitchen. We will make at least six cheeses, working our way through simpler varieties like cream cheese and mozzarella towards more complex cheeses including feta and farmhouse cheddar. On day 3 we will make Caerphilly and a Norwegian cheese. The hard cheeses will need to be finished at home. Bring your cheese appetite (no guarantees that your cheeses will make it home intact!).
