New Cheese

[steampwr8]

Hello Folks;

I am in North East Florida and looking for others who might share a passion for learning new things and for teaching new people what they've learned. I get bored easily and when I do I tend to give myself another degree in something. I figured cheese would enhance my cooking Barbeque skills and maybe help preserve a craft that might otherwise be lost.

I want to say hello to the Cheese Making Community here. Alot of the names I recognize from the research I've done on cheese making and also curing meats, i.e. DEEJAYDEBI. Which I have discovered that Cheese is Salami made from milk, and Salami is Cheese made from Meat.

If you have learned one it is a not to difficult step to learn the other. Would like to meet someone here in NE Florida to give me pointers.

Hello steampwr8, welcome, have fun here on the forum!

Hello Steampwr and welcome to the forum. Great people here and tons of info to be shared.

There are a few similarities between curing one product or another. Cheese making may help you understand your sausage making and vice versa. Right now my sausage fridge is full of cheese so I have to wait until it cools down some to make sausages! LOL They are all addictive hobbies and much fun to do!

Enjoy!

Welcome to the forum. Is your name a sign of another hobby? If so, let me know. I enjoy the same pursuit.

Very much so. I am was into model railroading and train chasing.

I lived in Rochelle, Illinois at the double diamond crossing of the CB&Q (B&SF yuk) Minneapolis line and the C&NW (UP even YUKIER) main line. There are 80 to 100 trains a day to watch. I grew up in Lindenwood Illinois on what was the original C&GW main from Iowa to Chicago..

Modeled in N scale...never had enough room to build a layout...still have all the stuff though.
