Cheese is delicious, nutritious and making your own is a very satisfying and money saving skill. Chef Tim will get you started with this addictive hobby as you learn to make some simple cheeses you can easily make at home.
Tim will cover:
- Overview of cheesemaking basics
- Ingredients and equipment needed
- Hands-on demonstrations of three cheeses - mascarpone, ricotta, and chèvre (fresh goats cheese)
- Recipes and demonstrations of a few recipes using these cheeses
There will be plenty of tastings as well as tips and advice on where to get the best ingredients, cheesemaking supplies and equipment + recipes to take home.
