Hello All!

I've started making my own yogurt and creme fraiche and have enjoyed the bestter quality and cost savings. This forum was recommended to me because of a question I have that I can't get answered so I'm hoping for that as well as to learn more. And to think two days ago I didn't know the difference between mesophillic and thermophillic.

So here's my question:

If I strain creme fraiche to make it more firm like a farmer's cheese is there a name for this type of cheese? Obviously it's a fresh cheese, but I haven't found any info on fresh cheeses made this way.

Thanks in advance,
Eric

I don't know of any name for that.

Welcome to the forum!

Sounds like cream cheese.

Nah, creme fraiche is tastier than that.

Eric, what is your procedure for making yoghurt? I've developed a procedure that works really well for me, but always interested to see if there is a way to improve ...
