class: Cheese Making with Mark Solomon (2 classes)

Mark knows cheese! And he says he will do a class anywhere someone can offer a suitable hosting space.

Got milk? Make cheese! Learn to make cheese in your own kitchen in two classes coming up at Mangia Bene in Maple Leaf- Monday September 15, 2014 for soft cheeses
Monday September 22, 2014 for hard cheeses. Both classes are from 6:30-9:30 pm. Mangia Bene has four stoves so there will be opportunity for hands on experience. In the soft cheese class you'll learn how to make seven different cheeses including mozzarella, ricotta, chevre and mascarpone. We'll make some of the cheeses in class and learn how to make all of them using simple equipment you have at home. In the hard class class we'll make a hard cheese and learn the steps involved in making almost any hard cheese. We'll taste a variety of homemade hard cheeses including Cheddar, Gouda, and Colby and learn what you need to know to make them in your own kitchen. In both classes you'll learn some cheese chemistry and find out about sources of cheesemaking equipment and ingredients. Gift certificates are available.
