Title: What to make??
Post by: scasnerkay on May 19, 2015, 11:48:36 PM
I have 3.5 gallons of lovely fresh raw Jersey milk waiting in the frig, and cannot decide what to make tomorrow. It is a full fat milk, and I was thinking of something using thermophilic starters. Any ideas??

Oooh, sweet raw milk!

...Tomme, Tilsit, Trappist?

...Esrom, Fourme d'Ambert, Saint Paulin?

Some of my favorites. :)

All things being equal-----you should use the RSM  (random select method )----write all the above mentioned cheeses on pcs of paper---place in bowl ----pull out one-----that's your cheese of the day----works every time for me.

Montasio it is! A new one for me, and I will try the Peter Dixon recipe... It has an interesting step of stirring the curds by hand after they are pressed into a "cake" and drained. What fun and thank you for the suggestions!
