Two New Cheese Makers. (-:

On July 28th 2012,  two new cheese makers were added to the list, Tracy on the left, and Candi on the right, (the Cheesy Geek in the middle). In a three hour session, we made Queso Blanco, Mascarpone, yogurt cheese (from yogurt made the night before), and the ever popular 30-minute mozzarella (which took closer to 45 due to slow curd formation).

Here, we were draining the yogurt to thicken it to the consistency of Greek yogurt. The ladies both took home a couple cups of fresh yogurt to enjoy.

The Queso Blanco being tied in cheese cloth to hang and drain. After making the Mozzerella, we divided both the Queso and Mozz for the ladies to take home to share with their families.

Tracy's favorite taste of the day was the key lime mascarpone made right in front of her.

 Candi's quote of the day. "You kept telling me it was so easy, but I really didn't believe it until today."

Until next time "Keep making the Cheese"

Cheese Making Party July 28th

On Saturday July 28th, I'm having a cheese making party at the house. We will make some Queso Blanco, Mozzarella, yogurt and mascarpone. I already have two confirmed and two maybes. I'm looking forward to having a great day making cheese and enjoying the company of some new cheese makers.
