My First Cheese Day!
#5
  Re: (...)
Well I am off this morning to drive 60 miles to get my fresh milk. Then when I arrive at home I should be able to make my first batch of mozzarella cheese.

I am planning on having pizza tonight! Homemade crust, sauce and cheese! Okay, so I didn't grow the tomatoes. But technically I didn't raise the cow or grow the wheat either.

I also bought a cheese press last week that should be here soon. Anyone have any cheese making advice for me out there? I know there was a thread on mozzarella that I am going to look up. Does anyone out there make hard cheeses?

If blueberry muffins have blueberries in them, what do vegan muffins have?

Oh Laura, you're going to have so much fun with this!! We just fell in love with the mozz we made a couple of weeks ago. And, like you, we made sure we had pizza the first night.

When I ordered the lipase, I received a great little catalog from cheesemaking.com that has goodies for making all kinds of cheeses.. hard and, I'm anxious to try, goat cheese.

Gonna be a fun winter!
