Swiss Cheese Making Recipe

[steffb503]

Is there a Swiss cheese recipe on this board?
I always have such a hard time finding actual recipes. Any help is appreciated.

Hi
here are some websites you can check, they have some variations. Just look and use the one you like.

I would like to see what do people think about the variation on the recipes most of it on the aging temperature and humidity.

Hi Steff.

I'm slowly making my way through the boards here, and I haven't gotten to the Swiss cheese board yet. So can't offer any links to recipes posted here. Sorry.  Here's a link to the board itself though:
RENNET COAGULATED - Hard Cooked (Swiss)
There are a couple of sites that have pretty good recipes as well.
U.Guelph Swiss Recipe
Peter Dixon's Recipes

Thank You both.
The first one from ehow is the one I used from Ricki Carroll. I felt it left me hanging.
I will try the others.

Steff - Why do you feel it left you hanging?

Well it says humid room but does not give a range. Is 90% too humid? is 70% humid enough?
It also wants the cheese left aging at 45F and 80% humidity for 3 months? Am I waxing or sealing this cheese after 3 months or never?

Well after rereading it I guess the only question is how humid a warm room and do I seal this ever.
I find her recipes a bit confusing at times.

I think I will make this recipe again and see if I can work it.
