Cheesemaking

Do you love cheese? Have you ever wondered how you make it? Have you ever considered making it at home, using equipment you already own? This course might be for you if you answered yes to some or all of these questions! This course will take you on a deep dive into the cheese-making process, where you will learn about the physical and chemical changes that take place in the milk to turn it into cheese. You will learn about the equipment and ingredients needed to make it and the steps to create your very own delicious Paneer, Halloumi and Mozzarella cheeses! Once you know and understand the fundamentals, you never know where it will take you! During the first session, your tutor will have some of their homemade cheeses matured and ready to open for you to try so you can see first-hand what you can achieve at home. Bring requirements listed on Confirmation/website. Please note that the cost of materials for this course is payable to the tutor during the course, in addition to the course fee paid to the College. For more details, please refer to the “Materials“ section on the course webpage. No concession.
