Farm Fusion Writing Assignment (Choose one)

  • We made a simple "farmer's cheese" or "chevre" in class.  What did you think about this process?  Was it what you expected?  
  • Research the chemistry behind cheese making!  Why does acid make milk curdle?  What is rennet, and why is it used?  What other acids are used besides rennet?
  • Although chevre has been made for centuries all over the world, it is commonly thought of as a French cheese.  Research the history of French cheesemaking, and tell us about it!
