several years ago a couple of girlfriends and I decided to try our hand at cheesemaking.....one friend was a farmer with sheep and brought goat and sheeps milk, the other friend was a food scientist.
We made raw cheese, cheddar and feta....using books, presses, cheese supplies bought from a reputable company. There is a whole lot to making good cheese, it is an artform. What we took away from making cheese that day is that it's not as easy to make aged cheeses as it looks. Fresh is way easier.
Some of the sheeps milk was used to make fudge, NOW that turned out GREAT!
