Hello from the bay area!
« on: January 29, 2013, 07:08:45 AM »
I've never met a cheese I didn't like  :)

In the last year it's been really exciting to learn to make mozzarella, ricotta, yogurt, yogurt cheese, and paneer.

I love aged cheeses; my favorites include aged gouda and parmesan, so there's plenty of incentive to learn to age cheese. 2013 is my year to start!

OOoh, I read about THAT cheese!  I think I read an account of a writer who traveled there to try it.  I decided my life could be complete without that experience.    ;D

I had heard about that cheese too! It seems like a waste of good Pecorino.
