This last batch I used mesophilic + rennet.
We have tried another culture that says "chevre" (don't need to add any rennet).

The fromage blanc is a lot like the chevre, but has a more pronounced flavor.

The friend SBC mentioned really liked all the cheese. Said it was so creamy!

The local goat dairy cheeses like the Goat Lady or Spinning Spider I've never thought there was a problem with the taste of their cheeses, I've just never thought it was better than what we make.

 

[Goat Whisperer]

I've never had SS chevre.

Some of the other local dairy's though...

I don't want goat flavor in the cheese!

 

[goatgurl]

the cheese looks delish. maybe i'll stop at your house before I head to babs house to be her salesperson. and i'm with you GW, I don't want goat flavor in my milk or cheese.

We have gotten a few different cheeses from Amish farms that were much better than anything I have bought in a store.

awww... my boy just stopped by... he has loved raspberries forever. We used to have row and rows of them before we moved South. He used to walk up and pick them right off the canes. So... he just got the last (double portion) piece of the silk pie with extra raspberries and sauce. And a bit extra shaved white chocolate.
Love my baby, no matter how old they get they are always my babies!

Apparently my daughter made him one of my recipes... they are house sitting for a friend (alternating days)... she'd asked my for some recipes last time she was here... nice to see her making some of my favorites. It was Chicken with Almonds in a pastry shell.

I like Ricki's Fromagina from New England Cheese Making but they don't sell it in large batches so I get to experiment and find one I like. They suggested AromaB or MM100 so I will try those. I am also going to use vegetable rennet to appease the vegetarians.

OK- I jut found a recipe- totally NOT goat related but I will be incorporating into my cheese.
@babsbag - I have to tell you about this one- you will LOVE this idea. I wish I had your Feta, it would be perfect with Feta!
