Today we learn about Kosher cheese from Dovid Wheeler in Israel.  I first started corresponding with Dovid about a year or so ago, and he sent through the Tzafatit recipe that I posted back in January this year.

During the episode, Dovid describes the cheeses that he makes at home, successes, challenges, and some issues that he has had with the milk that he sources.

If you want more information about Kosher cheese making, the great news is that Dovid blogs over at Koshercurds.com where you can find a wealth of information on the topic.

  • Dovid’s blog Koshercurds.com
  • Tzafatit recipe
  • Halloumi recipe and video tutorial

Also, a big shout out to Sami for the kind words of thanks and encouragement at the end of the episode.

So curd nerds, if you think you have a cheese making story to tell, drop me an email. I would love to have you on the show as my next guest.

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

New Mozzarella Course Dates for Term 3

20/06/2014 By Gavin Webber Leave a Comment

Unfortunately, due recovery from a knee operation, I have had to cancel this weekend’s Mozzarella and Ricotta course at Melton South.  I am unable to walk for the next few days, so cannot teach my favourite skill and hobby, which makes me sad.

However, I cannot apologise enough to the people who booked on the course.  I am so sorry for the late notice.  Hopefully you have rebooked on an upcoming course and I get to meet you all then.

Mozzarella Cheese Making Courses are great fun!

Thankfully we have two more courses locked in for August 2014 at two locations in the western suburbs of Melbourne.  One at Melton South Community House, and another at the Hillside Community Centre.

You can find the venue and dates at this link; www.littlegreenworkshops.com.au/p/cheese-making.html.  Places are currently available.

Also when I am back on my feet in a couple of weeks, I will hitting the kitchen get into this seasons cheese making.

I have missed cheese making so much, and am going to be experimenting making some bloomy rind cheeses.
Ian from Much To Do About Cheese has shared his Little Squirrel recipe with me, so that will be the first one I am going to tackle.

Then I think I am going to try Cambozola, which is a cross between a Camembert and a Gorgonzola. Gürkan has the method posted over on his site Home Cheese Maker.

Both of these cheeses look delicious, but will take some time to perfect.  I will start off using the best milk I can get my hands on, which I know will help considerably.

Anyway, stay tuned for the next Monday’s podcast as well.  Lots of questions are coming in via email, but I am a bit light on with voice mails.  If anyone has any home cheese making questions, please see if you can leave a voice mail via the speakpipe widget.  I would love to answer your questions if I can.

Looking forward to getting back on my feet again.

Chat soon!

Gav

Welcome back curd nerds!

I recently had a birthday party, and we purchased quite a few samples of cheese for our cheese board.  I talk about some of the varieties; which were good and which were passable.  It is an episode about my cheese tasting notes.

The news segment was an article from Hospitality Magazine Australia titled Specialty cheese venues on the rise.  It is pleasing to hear that we are now starting to get some well stocked cheesemonger here down under.

The links mentioned during the listener questions were;

  • Late blowing
  • Camembert
  • Mozzarella
  • My YouTube Channel for online cheese making tutorials

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

This helps the podcast rise in the charts, which is up 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.

If you wish to receive the show on your portable apple device each time I release an episode, you can subscribe via iTunes using the button below. You can also subscribe via Stitcher Radio.

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

  • Number One Cheese Podcast
    October 14, 2023 by Gene 321 from Australia

    Inspirational, motivational, incredible knowledge of cheese history and production, a great teacher with a twist of Aussie humor and an all round nice guy who knows his cheese. I’ve been listening to Gavin for many years now and gained so much knowledge and inspiration from just listening to his podcasts. If you’re interested in cheese, Gavin is your man.
