The ultimate class in practical cheese making! Learn all you need to know to replicate making Feta and Queso Fresco at home. You will be guided through each step of the cheesemaking process while making your very own round of Feta. While the Feta is setting (don't worry, all terminology will be explained!), we will make Queso Fresco together.
All ingredients are provided as are recipes and detailed handouts to take away with you. Bring a pen to take notes, a 2 litre container (an ice-cream container is ideal) and plastic re-sealable food bags to take your cheese home.
During the workshop, the following topics will also be covered: Milk and where to source it, hygiene and sanitation, equipment required and the origins of the cheeses you are about to make. You will also receive instruction on how to brine your cheese the following day.
A small break will be provided, and you will have the opportunity to purchase equipment and cheesemaking ingredients after the workshop should you wish to replicate the experience at home.
Fees: NZ$130 - Please bring a container for your cheese products
All prices are in New Zealand dollars.
