Discover the velvety world of soft-ripened, bloomy-rind cheeses with a one-of-a-kind class taught by Louella Hill (known locally as The Milk Maid). In class we mix milk and cream then inoculate with special mold spores. Next we ripen, churn and drain the curds. We also taste a selection of Camembert or Brie-like cheeses, drink some bubbly, then learn about aging conditions, serving ideas and more. At the end of class, participants take home one reusable cheese form, one mini brie that will finish ripening in 3-4 weeks, and tons of cheesemaking enthusiasm!
After class, Louella signs copies of her hot-off-the-press book on home cheesemaking, Kitchen Creamery (Chronicle 2015). Books will be available for sale or bring your copy from home.
