Title: Caramel Rind in semi hard cheeses
Post by: Tomer1 on October 02, 2013, 01:54:30 PM
I came across a cheese named "caramel gouda".
I was wondering if its possible to use liquid caramel (with very cold cheese) as you would dip in cheese wax to seal the rind as a mean to protect against molds during aging.   Perhaps dipping several times to build a thick layer which will be more robust\resistant to shattering.
