[...] of myself right now, having just consumed my first meal for the One Local Summer challenge. I had missed the first week and was certain that the second week would go by before I could get my hands on enough local food [...]

Looks delicious! I need to give it a try. I’ve finally mastered yogurt making – with the help of the Yogotherm. I could never quite get it right before even though everyone else seems to be able to do it. Anyway, welcome back and thanks for the cheese inspiration.

The Fromage Blanc took about 24 hours to make. First I had to let the culture sit for 12 – 24 hours (I left it overnight), then I had to drain it in cheesecloth for about 4 – 6 hours.

I made yogurt today – we’ll see how it turns out tomorrow!

Wow! That looks awesome and cheese is one of my all time favorite foods (good bread is the other). I tried making yogurt cheese once, but for now, I rely on our dairy for feta and gouda. How long did it take to make?

Mariah, this One Local Summer thing wouldn’t be a challenge if it was easy! The cheese looks terrific

Your cheese looks and sounds delicious. I tried making yoghurt for the first time on the weekend. It was a little runny, but turned out OK. I’ll try again this week to make a better batch.
