  • Cod produs: PMRPNF

The Artisan Cheesemaking and Tasting is available before the Farmer's Apprentice tour.  

During this workshop, participants join an instructor at the farmhouse to learn how to make queso blanco, a simple, white soft cheese.  Participants work in small groups to perform each step of the cheesemaking process: learning about basic components and equipment, heating the milk and watching the transformation of milk into curds and whey, draining the curd in a cheesecloth, and sampling their own batch at the end of the workshop. Participants learn about the difference between soft and hard cheeses, and play "cheese jeopardy" while waiting for the milk to heat.  

What's Included:

  • A delicious experience to go along with the Farmer's Apprentice tour
  • Cheesemaking class (approx. 60 min)
  • Sample of your own freshly-made artisan soft cheese
