About this Event
Cheesemaking isn't as mysterious as you might think, but the process is really cool. You might not realize it, but you can make some really easy and delicious cheeses in your home with minimal effort and equipment. If you love cooking, you'll want to try your hand at cheesemaking.
In this class we'll learn one of the easier cheeses to make, the popular Greek cheese known as Feta. And although we'll be making it from cow's milk, instead of the traditional goat milk, it will taste better than anything you can get in a store, and will have a hint of goat flavor because of a trick you'll learn in the class. We'll show the different steps in making this delicious salty brined cheese that you can crumble onto salads or mix with spinach to fill spanakopita. Through the process of making feta from scratch, you'll learn the basic methods you'd use to make most cheeses. At the end of the class we'll eat some homemade feta.
Instructor Dan Durica has been making cheese for over 17 years. He lives a self-sufficient life at Dancing Rabbit Ecovillage in Missouri and loves to make most of his food from scratch with local ingredients he's grown or raised himself. You can find more of his work at his YouTube Channel, Hardcore Sustainable, which has around 50K subscribers.
