Hi All-
Im not sure if this is the right forum or not, but Im looking for some advice on making Wisconsin Style fresh cheese curds. I would like to make them for the big game this weekend . If there is a thread out there already please let me know. You can imagine the results you get when searching for Cheese Curds on this site.
Thanks!
Leah

Hi Leah,

Try this recipe...http://cooking-from-scratch.blogspot.com/2009/07/cheddar-cheese-curds.html 

I've used this a few times before I really started learning about making cheeses.  Once you get good at them, try pressing and aging those curds.

Good luck.

Oh! Essentially like making cheddar. Well, Ive done cheddar a couple of times, so this should be a snap!

It is cheddar. They're cheddar curds, milled, salted, and not pressed.

For fresh curds, I like to make a Colby recipe, using yogurt instead of a mesophilic culture, as it seems to have better flavor for fresh eating.

Have fun with your party!

Did the same thing for our superbowl party. Cheddar cheese curds, with beer batter and deep fried...mmmmm!
