League of YEG Home Cheese Makers – May Meeting-Bloomies

Posted by ihtreuer on May 10, 2015

On May 9th the League of YEG Home Cheese Makers, a growing group of Edmonton based home cheese makers, met in a spacious room at the Expo Centre at Northlands here in Edmonton. Our theme was Bloomy Rind Cheeses, or what ever a member had to share. Not only did we have a great time but we also discussed expanding membership numbers.Please note that all the pictures were taken with my phone, sorry for the quality.

I brought some of the remaining cheeses from Addie and my Canadian Cheese Grand Prix tasting — I brought some of the remaining cheeses from Addie and my Canadian Cheese Grand Prix tasting.

Corinne made these 3 versions of the same cheese. All with Aroma B and different mold cultures. The centre one is Goat Milk.

Jonatan brought a semi lactic, the larger, and an ashed bloomy goat cheese. Both were amazing.

I brought two experimental bloomy semi lactic cheeses that used Thistle Rennet, and Moraine Blue — I brought two experimental bloomy semi lactic cheeses that used Thistle Rennet, and Moraine Blue.
