Thank Joel for the Edammer recipe, my next project,
Nick also thanks for your advice on the mold for blue cheese, I used
my mold which I used for making camenbert, and dived the recipe in
half, so
now it went well, and got a blue of 1 pound, and a gouda of 1 pound,
These mold made from PVC 4 inch do there work fine !
The blue could be an interesting project, I bough some blue in the
store, and used this to ferment the curds, instead of buying the
special blue mold, it
should work, accordantly more sources on the net, I keep you updated
if it works.
My camenberts are a bit messy, I think the mistake lies in the molds,
which did not have any draining holes, there you go..., thats why they
are
to moisty, and accordantly to the recipe the mold had to go in the
milk, which I forgot, but afterwards sprayed it on, like also a lot of
recipes tells,
so I am wondering which is the right way ? does it has to go in the
milk during the process, or can it be also sprayed afterwards on the
finished cheeses ?
any comment ?
In the meantime my Camenberts are all a bit to moisty running out of
shape, there is some mold on one side, but basicly thats it, I tasted
some, it has
a bit I would say 60 percent of the camenber, brie taste a bit bitter/
nutty, it should ripen 1 more week before we can eat it, I hope I do
not get sick ?
any comment on the " sick " thing :))
Regards,
irma
