craving cheese page 2

[nina_70]

I do eat cheese in my diet. I stick to raw-milk cheeses, and if I eat any version I eat the full-fat (never skim). All part of the 80/20 rule.

I am in a process of making my own cheese. I made a big batch of keefir using raw milk and now making my own Feta cheese. I will let you know how it turns out

[nina_70]

chocolatechip69 - oh, that sounds fabulous! How do you actually make kefir out of raw milk...is it just a question of leaving the milk out until it separates naturally? Do post the results once you're done.

nina_70, I have live cultures that turn milk into kefir. I think there are quite a few types of cultures that do that, but the primary benefit is that it adds live probiotics to the finished product, so if you consume dairy, this is just one of the added benefits.


When I purchased those cultures, the lady aslo included a very nice booklet that gives you tons of recipes on how to make stuff using kefit. You can make anything from cream cheese, to Feta cheese, to even Cheddar and Parmesan cheese. Pretty cool, huh?

So that explains the beer ...
