Ok funny thing, but this video is from last year and if you come over to my house right now, this is the exact cheese we are eating in our fridge. I aged it like an Asiago but I often age them like a Parmesan. It’s a pretty versatile cheese!

I’ve decided I’m now in my cheese-making era. 😁 My latest experiments with making cultured cottage cheese were a success, and it was such a relaxing process! Watch the full video and get the recipe link and info on where to get the culture and rennet in the ‘Cheese Era’ highlight on my Instagram profile. 🧀 (Go to @jowhitton and it’s at the top of my feed.)

Instructions:
1. Pour the milk into a large pot and bring it to a gentle boil over medium heat.
2. Add the sour cream and stir gently to combine.
3. Let it simmer for about 10 minutes, until the mixture begins to separate into curds and whey.
4. Turn off the heat and let it sit in the pot until it cools slightly.
5. Line a colander with cheesecloth and pour the mixture into it.
6. Gather the cloth and hang or place it over a bowl to drain.
7. Let it drain for several hours or overnight, depending on how firm you want the cheese.

Most people think Colby cheese is naturally orange.
It’s not.
When I make Colby, I add annatto — a natural food colouring that comes from the seeds of the achiote tree. It’s been used in cheesemaking for centuries.
And one thing I’ve learned the hard way…
it stains everything.
Have you ever made cheese at home?

Attempt #1 making cottage cheese…
Used 2 litres of milk
Expected: 400g
Got: 140g
So something definitely went wrong.
Here’s what I’d adjust next time:
– Milk likely wasn’t hot enough → curds didn’t fully form
– Apple cider vinegar may not have been strong enough (plain vinegar might work better)
– Curds were very small → lower yield
– Over-handling can break the curds down too much
– Drained too long → ended up too dry and lost volume
Next attempt I’ll:
✔ heat the milk properly
✔ add vinegar and let it fully separate before touching it
✔ avoid overworking it
✔ drain just until it stops dripping (not completely dry)
If you’ve made this successfully, I’d love your tips 👇

Cheese might not fix it, but it is pretty good at boosting the morale!
Yesterday we had a hard farm day but ended it with cheese and dinner at the table and that always makes it a bit better.
