Description
The making of a feta style cheese will be demonstrated. We’ll be using goats milk, as is traditional, but you will also learn how to pack flavour into feta made from cows milk. The two types will be available for tasting on the day. You’ll also learn how to store and age your cheese, both in brine and oil, without it going soft or even disintegrating on you! We will marinate some feta for you to take home too.
The making of ricotta will be demonstrated in the “down time” when we are waiting for the feta milk to culture up and also set curd. We will turn the ricotta into a fruit log that sits well on a Christmas cheese platter.
As with all my classes this is a down to earth practical demonstration on how to make cheese in your home kitchen. It is not a high brow discussion on the chemistry and mechanics of the cheese making process, although we may touch on some of this as necessary.
The class will start at 12.30 pm and will finish around 4.30 pm. Classes are held in our home kitchen at 3/1314 West Coast Road, West Melton. Please check our contact page on the website for more information.
There is a maximum of 7 people per class. The course will be held on Saturday 30th November.
If you are unwell please contact us as soon as possible but at least 24 hours before the start of the class. You can choose either a refund or to book onto a future class. We cannot refund after this time.
Gift cards can be used to pay for classes.
