Some of the piercings didn't go all the way through to the other side, so I repierced yesterday. This was also to get a feel for the curd. It's very firm, exceptionally moist, and developing nicely. Of course, repiercing means some cheese stuck to the probe. Some blue was on there, though not much as it's still slowly developing. Anyway, these volunteer samples were tasted and this is turning out to be a fantastic success. The taste was very very good, though also very mild at the moment because there wasn't much blue yet. Still, the blue flavour goes extremely well with the texture and underlying flavour of the curds. Nice.
