Making Goats cheese

A few weeks ago I got a very cool present, a goats cheese making kit.

So I thought I would do a quick blog to tell you what I thought.

The kit comes with very clear instructions and everything you need other than pots etc and milk.
So I read through it and cleaned everything down went to get milk the only place that stocks goats milk is a supermarket a shame.
All was going well on my first attempt until I spilt the whey and curds, what I save I made bread for myself. The next day I started again using 1/2 the milk much easier to poor and handle. The cheese looked great and had quite a mild taste, I seasoned it and squeezed out a bit too much whey. It still tasted great but a little drier than I wanted, so with that in mind I took it along to my bread course at Belfast Cookery School and made pizza for every one with nettle tops, Passata and goats cheese. Tasted great and enjoyed by all. If you where there and have a photo of the pizza I forgot to talk one could you send me a copy please. I have included the photos of the proses below.
