Title: What is ST50 ?
Post by: qdog1955 on March 31, 2015, 07:06:41 PM
A recipe in Caldwell book calls for ST50----I can find no info on this----does anyone no anything about this or a similar replacement?

That was my first thought as well. It is a slower-acidifying thermo variety.

That's what I'm thinking, too---it might be a misprint, or just her terminology----because in another section she discuses TA 50 as a slow acidifier----the recipe is for Flor Azul, a blue cheese.

If you scroll through to the "LARGE BATCH GUIDELINES" She changes that to TA-50.  I would say the ST-50 was a misprint.

Thanks Al---didn't notice that. Expensive stuff for a 1/16th tsp.
