Another newbie, from BC, Canada
« on: November 19, 2009, 08:56:22 PM »
Hi! Great place to learn all about cheese making. As I have lived on a dairy farm for the last 23 or so years, I have always want to try and make cheese. But now my kids are grown up, I have more time now. So I ordered the starter cheese kit from the New England Cheese Co. and have just done mozzarella, which was fun and turned out well. They have a recipe on their website for squeaky cheese curd so I made that too, and was happy with the results. Now I would like to try their recipe for farmhouse cheddar or colby, but first I will have to figure out how and where age it... But that will be another posting for sure!
Once again great site, I have much reading ahead of me!
Thanks!

Welcome from a fellow BC'er!  I'm from Vancouver.

You can also order from Glengarry Cheese, another Canadian based company!

Welcome milkmaid, I grew up in N Van but now live in Houston, Texas. Great to see more Canucks here!

Our listing of supply stores is here, as Dean says plus Danlac is in Airdie, just north of Calgary.
