Cheddar Cheese Curds – aka “squeaky cheese” – are so much fun to make and to eat! Or you can press and age them for a delicious wheel of sharp cheddar. The process of cheddaring involves piling blocks of curds on top of each other, and then milling and salting this somewhat press cheese before loading it into forms to press into a wheel to be aged. But you don’t have to press and age the curds – you can eat them fresh!   This live session will happen on August 15, 2020 at 2:00 p.m. MT.  But don’t worry if you can’t attend the session at that time!  A recording will be available for you to watch at your convenience shortly after the class.
