Welcome back to Milk Made Monday, my June series celebrating Dairy Month and all the amazing things we can make from milk!
This week I'm making a homemade stirred curd cheddar cheese—also known around here as "Cheater's Cheddar." While it may be an easier method than traditional cheddar making, don't let the shortcut fool you. The flavor, texture, and satisfaction of making your own hard cheese are still very much there!
If you've ever wanted to make a hard cheese at home but felt intimidated by the process, this recipe might be the perfect place to start. I'll walk you through each step, share what worked, and show you that homemade cheese doesn't have to be complicated to be delicious.
Whether you're milking your own cows, goats, or simply picking up milk from the store, there's something incredibly rewarding about transforming milk into a beautiful wheel of cheese.
Thanks for joining me for another Milk Made Monday! Let me know in the comments—have you ever made cheese at home, and what type would you like to try next?
