waste is what we have left over.  either it's odd pieces off wheels, wedges cut underweight or simply "off" wheels.

Cheese waste... Hmmm...

This makes me think of hot dogs and bologna..  "Meat waste" products which, by themselves, are considered inedible (or at least highly undesirable) in the standard American diet are taken and treated, cooked, emulsified, tranmsmorgrified, irradiated, mashed, salted, filtered and fused into a convenient form that we then feed our children.

Yum.

I always thought that's what they used to make "processed cheese" or that weird stuff that comes in a can called cheese something or other.

Actually our local natural foods store sells a cheese mix that is made from scraps. When they cut big wheels into little wedges, there are LOTS of crumbs, especially from dry cheeses. They collect the scraps, mix them with other scraps. And sell the blend in small plastic containers. It's always different, but always very good. You get small pieces of some really great domestic and imported cheeses - at much lower prices. About $6/pound instead of $16 or more.

ice pictures John. I have not tried many of the soft cheeses. Don't know why I tend to go straight to the hard cheeses but I got my new crouttin molds i this week now for the goats milk!

BTW that book is awsome I love it. Lots of great little hints and tips scattered everywhere. I have little post-it flags all over that book! I know you will enjoy it. Speaking of which I have a few new book to read too!  ;)

I saw a recipe for something like thius in one of my cheese books - they called it "fromage fort"
