Whether you have your own cow, goat, sheep, or use milk from a local dairy, making your own fresh,
homemade dairy products is a unique and enjoyable culinary experience. Using our book, "Soft Cheese
Making - a Beginner's Guide to Making Butter and Soft Cheeses at Home", our instructors will teach you
how to make butter, cultured buttermilk, sour cream, cream cheese, cottage cheese, herbed cheese logs, feta,
ricotta, yogurt, labaneh (a spreadable yogurt cheese), 30-minute mozzarella and more. We also show uses for
whey (the by-product of cheese making). There is lots of hands-on experience, sampling (eat a light breakfast!),
and cheeses to take home.
This day-long class can be taken on a Friday and followed by our
Hard Cheese Making Workshop
in which you can learn to make
hard, aged cheeses.
We provide all the equipment for the class and one of our books "Soft Cheese Making" for each student and will
have cheese making supplies available for purchase (dairy thermometers, rennet, cheesecloth, draining mats,
soft cheese molds and citric acid).
Class Size: 12
Some comments by our students:
"The class was taught in a way that I feel confident to go home and make all the
cheeses that were taught." Texas
"I have taken many cooking classes, but this surpasses anything I have
experienced." Colorado
"I fully enjoyed every moment here. Everyone was very nice, the grounds are
beautiful." California
"Timing was great. I liked that we used tools that you can find in any kitchen.
Perfect! Great personal attention. I liked that we worked with the guide and got
any questions from the process answered. It surpassed my expectation. It can't
get any better! Love the peace and sense of community and most of all the friendliness
of all." Texas
