finding rennet, citric acid and other cheese making supplies in Collin county

[KathynTX]

Hi,
I'm new to the cheese forum and new to cheese making. I live in Celina, TX, which is in NW Collin county. Where can I find liquid rennet and citric acid in Collin county? Other cheese making supplies would be great too.

Hi Kathryn and welcome to this forum.

I'm in Katy on west side of Houston. Cheese makings supplies are sadly in this modern era not sold at many stores. That said I did find some Malaka brand liquid rennet in the second Whole Foods store I went to. I suspect for that you'll have to drive in to Dallas.

Luckily there is the internet and most of the members buy from webstores, there is a listing here. there is a new Suppliers Board for reviews of them but not much there yet. If you search the Forum on a suppliers name from it's homepage you should get quit a few hits.

As you haven't made cheese before there is a sticky post here with recommendations, even with out rennet you can still make some cheeses!

Hope helps, John.
