Also translated as: "I made goat cheese today"!!!!:D
We have just starting getting enough goat milk to actually benefit from having a dairy goat. The kids are almost weaned and Daisy is giving alot of milk, so today,as I stared at ALL the jars of milk in the fridge, I thought I'd try my luck at making cheese. Rachel had found a really easy recipe online so I used that. It's really simple:
1 gallon of goat milk
3/4 cup lemon juice
salt
herbs
First you heat the milk up to 185 degrees Farenheit. Remove from heat and stir in lemon juice for several minutes till the milk curdles enough. Strain through cheesecloth and then add herbs and spices. Keep cheese in the cloth hanging on a spoon over a bowl (in the fridge) so it can keep straining. Bon appetite! That's how easy it is!
So it turned out well, except I think I messed with it a bit too much, because it has a sort of rubbery texture to it. But for a first-timer I'd say it was a job well done! Oh! I also found a really cool website about dance cards right here :) Well, that's all!
