My newest interest is making homemade cheese. Well actually I have been playing around with making cheese for about a year now, but I decided it was time I get serious and bump up my game.
So today I am making Chevre cheese. Not that this is a difficult cheese to make, on the contrary it is quite simple. It takes about 12 - 18 hours for the curds to set up. So no pictures at this point.
However I do want to share a few resources I found helpful:

This book is , shall I say, amazing. I am fairly new to this adventure and I have to say this book is so complete that it makes even myself feel very confident I can do this. Now I am still in the easy cheese section of the book, but am moving onto the intermediate next week when I can acquire some local ingredients I want to use.
As for the Chevre cheese - the recipe in the book is straight forward and simple. However, I do like to see the process and the pictures in the book, although lovely are sparse for my needs. I found this series of videos on YouTube and found it very helpful.
Be sure to watch part 2 and part 3 before starting.
Happy cheese making!
