I am so excited that I found this forum!! Finally, a group of cheese addicts I can quiz and pick the brains of!!
I am pretty darn new to making cheese! I've done a couple soft cheeses- mozzarella, ricotta (OMG who knew that the stuff I was paying through the nose for was made from cheese waste!!! Ricotta is usually twice as expensive as cottage cheese!!) and cottage cheese- and now I'm
almost ready to move on to the big stuff.... hard and mold-ripened cheese!!!!
My dream is to have some land so that I can have a couple goats, but for now I'm "stuck" in So California-(whann whann
on the coast a few minutes from the beach about half way between LA and San Diego). But I think I'm a country girl at heart! I'm lucky enough to be able to get away with my 3 chickens- Thank goodness for good neighbors! But I don't think they would put up with goats!!
I've always loved eating cheese! I would rather have a good brie, blue or chevre then chocolate any day (although a good dark chocolate might tie an OK brie
) And I am beyond excited that I can make them now!!! I can not wait until my first wheel of brie! It will be just like Christmas- only better, because I will be able to eat it!!
I am so excited and looking forward to your input on all my future adventures in cheese!!!!
