I'm thrilled to know you're back to blogging! I hope you'll blog about your experiments. Combined efforts benefit us all.

First of all love your new clothes line and yes, CHEESE! We're so lucky to have our own raw cows milk to use but now I want to try making rennet with plant materials. Thanks for all the great info Leigh.Donna OShaughnessyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08266654110280149719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1694364001063554832.post-85496320838416010962019-07-03T09:13:26.782-04:002019-07-03T09:13:26.782-04:00https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8eTJONY1uz8&t=...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8eTJONY1uz8&t=390s Here ya go.Renee Nefehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08167893445846427824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1694364001063554832.post-20069558429551272452019-07-02T20:06:11.971-04:002019-07-02T20:06:11.971-04:00Tricky!

You can also see my blog post on it, <a href="https://www.5acresandadream.com/2017/08/fig-sap-cheese.html" rel="nofollow">here</a>.<br /><br />Rain, if I had a cooler climate I'd make lots aged cheeses. Or, if I can ever get my goat kidding to where I have a fall supply of milk, I might try it! I'll be interested in your experiments.

They put a bunch of eggs and sour cream in it. I was very confused. There was also vinegar which I expected. I didn't understand the need for the eggs or how it could still be considered cheese if it had eggs in it. ??? oh well, seeing as I don't have a source for fresh milk, cheese making is not going to happen for me. But I enjoy watching/reading about others make it.Renee Nefehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08167893445846427824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1694364001063554832.post-21623097865954163452019-07-01T11:25:55.261-04:002019-07-01T11:25:55.261-04:00Jo, no, I didn't know that!

Although it looks promising for others. <br /><br />As you well know, I was writing my own series of books of sustainable living series of books before my strokes. I've accumulated a vast array of knowledge (both first hand and by research followed by experimentation) over the past 60+ years on this earth and felt the need to teach others as you do. I applaud you. Cockeyed JoJ.L. Murpheyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11782355786883006411noreply@blogger.com
