Cheese Cheese Curds |
This is my own Fias Co Farm variation on cottage cheese/cheese curds. |
| Feta is a salty Greek cheese, usually made with either goat or sheep's milk. It is wonderful crumbled on salads and can also be used in cooking. | |
| Mozzarella | One of the first cheeses people want to learn to make is Mozzarella. The problem is, Mozzarella can be pretty tricky. Finally, after years of trying to produce a stretchy, tasty, well-textured Mozzarella, I've succeeded. |
| Ricotta | Ricotta is Italian for "to cook again" or "twice cooked." It is a soft, smooth, fresh, unripened Italian cheese usually made from the whey of cow's or sheep's milk. |
| Panir/Queso
Blanco "White Cheese", Vinegar Cheese |
A perfect "first timer" cheese. It's
quick and simple to make, and takes very little special equipment.
This cheese does not melt and can be used like Tofu in stir fry or cut
into chunks and added to spaghetti and chili. Ideal Beginner cheese |
| Queso
Fresco "Fresh Cheese" |
Queso Fresco can substitute for Mozzarella on many occasions. It is lightly pressed and ready to eat in just a few days. |
| Chevre/Fromage
Blanc "Goat Cheese" |
I
have found that when I say "goat cheese" to people, they think only of
Chevre. Chevre, means "goat cheese" in French. It is a soft, molded, fresh
cheese, but by no means the only cheese you can make with goat milk. It
is quite simple to make and doesn't take a lot of special utensils, milk
or time to make. Ideal Beginner cheese |
| Saint Maure | Once you have making Chevre down, why not try something really fun. getting moldy. Once you try this moldy Chevre, you may never go back to plain again. The mold we'll use is the same kind of white mold that is used in Brie and Camembert. It causes the cheese to develop a wonderful flavor and creaminess. |
