"Crezllegio"
« on: October 11, 2017, 05:08:40 PM »
How many of you go after a wild hare with your cheeses?


This morning I was making Crescenza and was thinking about how similar the make is to Tallegio (except for the salted whey of course)
So in molding it up I decided to use half the curd as a normal Crescenza but then I added B. linens to the remaining curds/whey before molding that. I'm planning to continue that one as a washed rind. I'm curious to see how it will turn out.


Thoughts?
Somewhere, some long time ago, milk decided to reach toward immortality… and to call itself cheese.

For some, the goal of making cheese at home is to get a completely repeatable result that closely matches the target cheese. For others, myself included, half the fun of making cheese at home is experimenting!

Let's ferment something!
Bread, beer, wine, cheese...it's all good.

Yes, Boofer!
Sorry about the blueberry one, but tell me, what was the final outcome on the raspberry liquor washed rind?
(Oh, and a cheese for being an adventurer.)
