cheese monger
Jan. 12th, 2008 11:54 pmi made cheddar cheese today!
here i am stirring the curd and adding the salt. more pictures on flickr if you click the photo.
it is being pressed overnight under 20lbs of pressure, and tomorrow morning we flip it and press on the other side for another twelve hours. and then it cures for at least a month. it will take a loooong time, but when it's done we are going to have a belated housewarming party, with grilled cheese sandwiches on homemade bread, and apples to apples (another christmas present). yay!
