Just some fresh mozzarella. Pretty good for first try.

You made it yourself?  Cool!

[mikeymad]

Yep - first time - it is not too complex to make - but I think it takes a bit to get it just right - a little dry. 

 

I am soaking the second ball in the whey and salt - see how it does. 

 

Thanks

I used to get amazing mozzarella in Hoboken, really cool that you make your own.

So the ball of cheese is already made, but you're doing what to it?  Marinating it or something?

 

I am not knowing this.  I want to try doing this, if it's pretty easy.

A lot of time you buy fresh mozzarella it comes in a brine

 

 

 

So I took the leftover whey and added a bunch of salt to make a brine, and put the cheese in there to 'keep it fresh' if you will. Since it is fresh, it will continue to mature a bit. 

 

Also I may try it in oil as well. 

 

Just playing around.

A cheese thread, you say?

 

 

Delicious delicious Pleine Lune. Easily one of my favorites.

Munching on cheddar cheese, right now. Just came home from a very tiring day at work.

Yeah, I capitulate, they've been banned.  Sure had the forced randomness of a bad liar.

Cheesy.

Those spamBots are getting sneaky these days.

Just finished a piece of piquant gorgonzola followed by a crunchy peanut butter sandwich, and washed down with a cup of pineapple juice.

I have had a blue stilton which was very nice, but a white stilton with cranberries was better.

I usually stick to a 18 month to 2 year old tasty cheddar.
