Yesterday was Ricotta. 2 batches - the first one flopped. Instead of 2 pounds of cheese, I got 2 OUNCES. For 6 hours of work. :sigh:
I got mad, and decided to try again - but this time, I cranked the heat up, added more water to the bath, and let 'er rip.
2 hours later, I had 2 pounds of lovely, soft Ricotta. :mmmmmm: Which promptly went to its requestor. :lol:
Today is Caerphilly. Never heard of it, but what the heck - it's different. It's new. Not like I don't have the milk, right? :wink:
Bad news - my digital thermometer died. Good news - I have an analog that goes below 80*. Just means I have to keep getting up to check the temp. :shrug: It works - and the cheese is now in the press.
Tomorrow is another day...wonder what cheese it will produce? :lol:
