Title: Reblochon - Brining vs Dry Salt Rub?
Post by: george13 on December 13, 2011, 07:30:39 PM
If a Reblochon calls for a two hour brine bath at the very beginning, and instead of doing that I rub salt on all surfaces, but thereafter follow the required washing steps, how will that affect the cheese? i.e rind development, salinity, etc. I was making gorgonzola the other day, and for some dumb reason did the same with the Reblochon.
