  • why are some cheddar kinda bitter,and some are all just salty?,is there a difference in the recipe?

  • @andreanws the bitter is simply the aging and type. The longer the aging and the harder the cheese (as a general rule) the more bitter. The salt is just an additive and preservative. You add less and you get less salt taste but more chance of spoilage.

  • I must have messed up somewhere... I ate the curds before I pressed them.

    I love cheese curds.

    Ever try frying them?

  • @tybo09 LOL I have not but have heard they are good. Maybe I save half of them next time i do this.

  • calcium chloride is the same has the starter right for cheddar

  • heh there was a killer in montreal who killed kids called cheeseman.

  • @lycheesack Just get some good milk, order the culture online or write me for it (I have 2 types) and you're on your way. I have a video on making a cheese press. It's easy and cheap to make.

  • @lycheesack Yeah I probably need some place cooler. I turned out well but to be fair I have only sampled it because I am slightly scared. LOL

  • @tybo09 there some info out there about using fig tree sap for the same purpose. I have two fig trees so I might try it. Worst case you have to scrape a calf stomach. Yuck.
