Getting Curdy

September 8, 2015 @ 18:31 By Gavin Webber 2 Comments

The last couple of days has been all about getting curdy.  No, not nerdy.  Curdy, like in cheese curds.

On Sunday I spent a good part of the day recording episodes for my Little Green Cheese podcast.  It was an uplifting experience because it was one of those pleasurable things that I had been putting off for far too long.

Consequently, I published an episode yesterday, and am a few recordings ahead of myself so that I don’t get into that situation again.  I love producing these episodes and especially answering the listener questions, which I get about two a day via email!

If you want to have a listen, then check out the Little Green Cheese podcast.

In addition to the podcast and cheese blog, I have been active over at Mother Earth News.  I posted my second article titled, How to Make Something Like Feta Cheese (with Video).  That wasn’t the original title, but I think this slight change has helped readers find it.  I have to stop being so arty with my titles 😉

It has a little story about why I made Feta as my very first cheese, and then a video tutorial and recipe for my version of Feta-style cheese.

My objective at Mother Earth News is to take folks on a cheese making journey from simple to more difficult cheeses, so that they can easily follow along.  Time will tell how it goes, because I have noticed that not many people comment on the articles in each section (almost none), so I am not sure how the articles have been received so far.

So that’s what’s been going on in curd land.  I’m such a curd nerd.
