I currently live on a cheese farm so the incentive to make my own is zilch! It's something on my list to try eventually though. As for jam, my favorite jam/marmalade is made by St. Dalfour, they somehow make the best tasting preserves without sugar. I want to know HOW this is possible, whenever I've made jam I seem to use a small plantation worth of sugar! Well done cheese maker, let us know how it tastes.

We canned a half acre of tomatoes one year. She died a few years later. It was strange to keep eating those canned tomatoes for almost 10 years. I'm incredibly jealous of your cheese cave (ha ha ha). That is on my short list of things to do when law school is over and we eventually move out to CO. I'm eager to hear how it turns out... Hope your throat is mending. I swear by gargling (alternate) cayenne pepper in water and apple cider vinegar. It works much better than salt water and doesn't run the risk of drying out your throat too much like salt water does.

When my parents were still on the 7th, they had dairy sheep. My dad had the freezer and a couple of Mennonite families brought their milk there. He'd drive it to the city every couple of months to get cheese made. Love, love, love sheep milk! My kids would drink it the way it comes when they were at their Oma and Opa's house, but I couldn't afford to have it at home as it has more fat content than - say Half and Half from the store! It's almost like drinking cream.... but sooo good. I am extremely impressed with your cheese! Personally I have never ventured beyond soft cheeses. Congratulations on a job very well done.

Only I don't use chemicals. All you're doing is soaking the seeds and pith in water until they become jelly like and then steeping them in the 'jam' until the seeds are no longer slimey. If you ever want to try it, I'll write it in a bit more detail, though there is not much more detail than that!
