Quiche?

I’ll suggest eggnog too, even if it’s a little early in the year for it.

What do you know? You guessed it!

It’s kind of like a quiche, but it’s made in the Dutch oven. I’m still trying to figure out exactly how to make it.

Did I hear someone say egg nog?
I'll be right over!

Consider this. Challah egg twist. Wonder if your student guests are familiar with such in their land.

@cavemanrich I just went through my cheese making book, and I got some news for you.

First off, this is the book. I encourage you to order a copy if you want to try making cheese.

81% of the recipes use rennet. I could be wrong and this number could be higher.

Anyway, rennet is very crucial in cheesemaking. If you try making Fromage blanc without rennet, or if you use homemade cheese as rennet, it will not work. It won’t even taste like the cheese you’re trying to make. It will be completely different.

Cheesemaking is a very exact science. If you don’t follow the instructions and do something different, you can make a different type of cheese on accident. I speak from experience.

For example, farmhouse cheddar you have to heat the milk to 90 in the first step. For a different type of cheese, you have to heat the milk to 85 in the first step. It’s a very exact science, and the slightest changes can affect the end result.

I hate to say it, but if you really want to make the cheese that I made, you need to use the starter which has rennet.

Sorry, I wish I had better news for you.

I'm going to be the advocate here, what did the farmers use a hundred years ago to make cheese?

That looks delicious. Even my fish is interested!

I use the recipe that I got here.

It is the crust less Quiche and is very good.

Bakers good afternoon one and all!

Tea is ready.

Temperature is in the 80s with 100% rain.

Have a great day!

Yes, I forgot to let the cheese get dry to the touch before waxing. I am doing that now.

You've inspired me to try making some cheese myself. I bought a couple half gallons of milk today and will attempt to make some Farmer's cheese.
