Title: Manchego, again
Post by: jawdog on August 27, 2010, 01:39:07 AM
Well, I made a manchego today.  6 gals.  I decided to make one about 5.5 lbs and another about a half lb. 

Does the 1 hour per pound times inch thickness work for these like parm brining times?

Looks real good.  What recipe did you use?

Ricki Carroll's recipe from her book Cheese Making.  It is now dry and aging.  I think (hope) I can wait a few months on this one!
