Cheese-Making Kit Giveaway!

Today I spent the day cleaning my entire apartment. I mean serious cleaning. Like top to bottom cleaning. It was intense. Every inch of the apartment sparkles now and smells super fresh in prep for school starting next Monday.

While I was cleaning out my kitchen I found this fantastic cheese making kit!

I got it when I took a cheese making class and haven't even opened it. I've been so busy with moving, getting settled, working, summer classes and prepping for nursing school next week, I haven't even had a chance to touch it! I received my schedule for classes, labs and clinicals for this Fall and I probably won't be able to use this awesome kit or give it the love it needs. This means I'd like to pass this totally awesome and fantastically fun kit on to you!

The kit includes....
-Recipes for Ricotta, Cottage and Mozzarella Cheese + more!
-Supplies for 30 batches:
  • 8 oz Citric Acid
  • 8 oz Cheese Salt
  • 1 yard of Cheesecloth
  • Dairy Thermometer
  • 10 Rennet Tablets
-Super Easy Intructions!

TO ENTER:
Leave a comment on this blog post answering the following question...
What is you favorite type of cheese?

Is it fresh mozzarella, blue cheese, feta cheese, gruyere? What's your favorite!?!? If you love cheese as much as I do, then you are going to love this kit! It only takes 30 minutes and then you have fresh cheese of your own. It's super easy and the instructions are great too!
How cool is that?

    I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Brie!!! I love lots of cheeses though! I like to shread my own cheese. I love looking at the cheese section in bigger stores (our store is little here)

  20. AshleyAugust 22, 2011 at 10:55 AM

    I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Brie. I love all kinds of cheese. I like to shread my own instead of buying the preshreaded stuff. I love the cheese section at the bigger stores! Our local store barely had fresh parm.

    I adore cheese! I cannot drink a lot of milk due to gastric bypass so I make up the calcium with cheese. I eat tons of it! :-) One of my fav's is Smoked Gouda or Smoked Cheddar! Simply divine with some smoked turkey on a dollar roll with just a smear of real mayo and a squirt of yellow mustard! Ya gotta love cheese!!
