In today’s episode I talk about the subtle differences between the main acid coagulated cheese that should be a staple in the home cheese makers repertoire; Paneer, Whey Ricotta, Whole milk Ricotta, and Ricotta Salata.

Cheese news is about a Listeria infected cheese recall from Whole Foods, and what the signs of infection are.

This week’s questions are:

• Charlotte from South Africa: Why don’t I use pH measurements in my recipes?
• Taryn from Australia: What type of starter culture should I use for a Caerphilly?
• Frieda from NSW, Australia asks: Is pink mould okay on my blue cheese, and how do I get more veins? How do I stop my Camembert from being too moist on the bottom?
• Colin from New Zealand: Can I put chopped onion into cheese or what is a better alternative?
• and a Voicemail testimonial from Annie!
