I make a goats milk feta, kinda. It tastes great, sells well and it is easy to do. Only problem is it only lasts about 5-6 days. It does not use any Lipase, could this be the issue?
My recipe
Milk @ 86F ( I Pasteurize as per NY state law)
Add MA 100
Culture for 45 mins
Add rennet
allow to set for 1 hour
cut curds
hold @ 86F for 45 mins whiles slowly stirring
Drain curds in bag over night
Cut into small chunks , mix in salt and allow to drain
It drains for about 24 hours then put into small tubs and refrigerated.
I sell at the local market, so I pack into coolers with ice packs. Any that does not sell comes back home but a few days later it is sour and starting to grow a fuzz.
any thoughts?
