Description
Cheesemaking - Feta (and a Halloumi Demo)
In four and half hours, you’ll be guided through the steps to make feta from scratch and will take home your own round of cheese to brine and then eat the next day! There'll also be a halloumi demonstration.
All ingredients are provided (vegetarian rennet is used), as are recipes and detailed handouts to take away with you. Bring an apron, dishcloth, 3 or 4 tea towels, a pen to take notes and a 2 litre container and plastic sealable food bags to take your cheese home. There'll be a short break for lunch.
By the end of the workshop, you'll be able to:
• Make feta and halloumi at home
• Use equipment from your own kitchen and/or know where to source it from
• Describe different types of milk (raw vs store-bought)
• Describe differences between pasteurisation and homogenisation
• Practise good hygiene and sanitation when making cheese at home
