A few chemical reactions will start the process of turning milk into cheese during this culinary adventure. While waiting for the curds and whey to separate, learn about the fundamentals of making cheese at home, how to select milk, and where to buy ingredients and tools. As our cheesemaking experiment progresses, we will discuss artisanal cheeses, flavors, and pairings, while sampling several varieties and accompaniments. After trying your hand at making ricotta, queso blanco, or paneer, you will make a batch of quick mozzarella. Take home a packet of starter culture so you can mix up a batch of creamy, fresh mozzarella in your own kitchen.
