Get cozy during chilly autumn nights with the ancient cheese, Halloumi, from the island of Cyprus! Halloumi is a firm and tangy cheese that, when grilled or pan fried, will not melt, but crisp up for an amazing appetizer or meatless main dish. Using local milk from happy pastured cows at Cherry Valley Dairy, this 3-hour class (light snacks provided) with cheesemaker Meghan McKenna will guide you through the cheese-making process so that you can create this delicious cheese at home. This cheese is as fun to make as it is to eat! You’ll also get a bonus lesson in making whey ricotta – whey is a bi-product of the Halloumi and makes for an amazing creamy ricotta. Vegetarian with dairy and gluten.
