LGC 030 – Recipe Tips

During the show I talk about the importance of sticking to the recipe.

Please forgive me if I sound a little harsh, but it is very important to not vary too much from the recipe.  Otherwise, how are you going to repeat that amazing taste four months down the track especially if you deviated too much and didn’t record your changes.

This weeks new is from Tasmania.  Ian Fowler comes from a very long line of cheese makers and is making cheddar style cheeses in the Bay of Fires on the east coast.  I play an audio clip from an interview he gave on the ABC. http://www.abc.net.au/news/2014-07-22/bay-of-fires-tasmanias-smallest-cheese-company/5572612

I also answer questions about using the correct milk for the right cheese method, why you should wax your parmesan, and talk about butterfat yield from different types of cow.

Also here are the photos I promised.

And one that I didn’t mention, but Murray sent me a picture of a very fresh Peppercorn Cheddar

Also, if you like this podcast, and would like to help promote it as a personal favour to me, please head over to iTunes and give it a rating and a honest review.  Once you have clicked on the link, then click the “view on iTunes” button and leave a review.

This helps raise the podcast in the iTunes charts, which ranks against the likes of world famous food podcasters like Jamie Oliver, Nigella Lawson, and Martha Stewart to name a few.

I am really up against the heavyweights in this podcasting category, so any help would be fantastic if you have the time.

So, until next time curd nerds, remember to Keep Calm and Make Cheese!
