I don't see what danger there would be in not sanitizing the cheese. And now that I think about it (it has been a couple years since posting this) I wonder why cheese should be sanitized anyway. The good bacteria in cheese is what makes it cheese! I would be tempted, next time I make this cheese, to leave off the last step, and see what happens. Thanks for stopping by - And by the way, for you or anyone else who reads this - the flexible plastic cutting boards don't work for a press. The flexibility is what works against them. I'd recommend using a wood cutting board, which won't bend from the pressure of the bolts and wing nuts at the corners. Rachelle,

The good bacteria would still be intact and the enzymes left living...is there danger in not sanitizing the cheese?

We prefer to use the fresh, raw goat's milk. What a blessing that you were able to get some extra goat's milk for awhile. I'm glad you're enjoying Emma! Did you know that Jane Eyre is going to be on Masterpiece Theatre this coming Sunday evening and the next Sunday evening? Robin,

I take it goat milk from Kroger will not work for this? A few years ago I had a friend who was given raw goat milk once a week for many months for her baby. They always had extra and I ended up getting a gallon from her on about five occasions. We *loved* it. I am listening to "Emma" on Audible.com and have been for the past two hours. We had Netflix send us the 1996 DVD and watched it Thursday, Friday, Saturday & Sunday! We'd not watched it, nor had I read it before that. I am enjoying another Jane Austen novel so very much, thanks to you. :D Have a super Monday, love, Robin Wonderful instructions, dear Wardeh. :) I wish it were easier to get raw goat milk.

It does look like a lot of fun and work to make it. :D I liked reading that tutorial, but I don’t think I’ll ever make the cheese. It does look like a lot of fun and work to make it. :D

That's so much more ambitious than I am. I am just now beginning to think about making my own bread. I admire all that you do for your family. It's an inspiration. Wow, that’s so incredible!
