In June we went to a cheese-making class at GRuB! GRuB offers many great community classes about cooking, gardening, and sustainability - they are such a great resource for the community!
Adam and I (Wendy) decided to go to the Cheese making class because neither of us knows anything about making cheese! My son Xander came along too - and had a blast!
We learned how to make a simple mozzarella cheese. It was easier than I thought it would be - and quicker too! I haven't made any at home yet because there are a few specific things I would need to do it at home - but now that I have seen it done I think I'd like to try it on my own sometime!

our Instructor, Quin Baine showing us the ropes of cheese-making!
We used a recipe adapted from the book Home Cheese Making by Ricki Carroll. The recipe is called "30 Minute Mozzerella"
We all got to stretch and form our own ball of fresh mozzarella! fun!
Xander enjoying the process! It was like a science experiment watching the milk and other liquid ingredients transform into a solid!
After our cheese was ready - we made pizza!! We all worked together to make pizza dough and chop up vegetable fresh from the GRuB farm to top our pizzas with!
Yummmm! Home-made pizza with fresh cheese and fresh veggies! Doesn't get much better than that!!
Thanks, GRuB!!
