star star star star star

I bought the book and all the things to go with it! Since, we have been making cheese none stop! Its been wonderful, a few disasters and a bit of mess a long the way, but since we have got used to it, its been great! Love making cheese! I would suggest everyone gives it a go! One piece of advice, get the correct milk! Love it!

I made the halloumi yesterday I loved the flavour but struggled to slice it without it crumbling please where did I go wrong

support_agent A note from the team

Thanks for placing your review. We're pleased you liked the Halloumi. We'd recommend the cheese is thoroughly drained before removing from the mould for slicing this will reduce the crumbling.We hope this helps.

"Soft cheese making"

star star star star star

I bought the book and kit. The first cheese I have tried is the Halloumi. I bought unhomogenised Jersey milk from the local supermarket - and followed the recipe instuctions to the letter. Left the mould in the fridge overnight, after letting it drain off the whey. Removed it from the mould and wrapped it tightly in clingfilm for a couple of hours before slicing it with a wet knife. Dusted it in seasoned flour before frying it for a few minutes in a little oil. It was absolutely perfect & successful.

"Really easy!"

Fantastic Halloumi at first attempt. Less than 10 mins to get into the mould. Better flavour and not salty like supermarket ones. Make a small batch when trying for the first time, I just used 1 litre of milk and 30ml white wine vinegar. My thermometer is not digital but there are other cheeses (Mozzarella) that are very sensitive apparently. Liked the spiral binding and robust card pages that are wipe clean - so much better than flimsy paper that tears over time.

Last week I bought this book & a mould & thermometer. I tried my hand at Haloumi which is a cheese I use a lot. I was delighted with the result. It was so easy & although it did not have the slightly rubbery texture of bought Haloumi it tasted lovely & was a very good consistency. I could not believe how easy it was. I think it needs more salt than the recipe states as it is a salty cheese but that is a personal preference. I had it for lunch with salad yesterday & tonight the rest is going in Giovetski. Can't wait to try some other cheeses.
