Title: HOT Habanero and Jalapeno Cheddar
Post by: pastpawn on June 06, 2023, 05:19:06 AM
This, after a 24 hr press.  Looks like a good knit.  Drying it out then into the vac bag and cave.  Fingers crossed.  Homegrown peppers in there, and they are fire.  I also added some chili powder to the milk, thus a lot of little brown specks there.

Looks very tasty to me! But I'm a Chillihead!

Why the vacuum bag?

Easy aging for 2 months without concern.  No cracking, no mold.  Sure beats wax.
