I never ate this cheese before, but its so similar to our Lebanese Shanklish. Except we do it from yogurt instead of milk, no specific culture added, mixed with salt, hot pepper (like cayenne), Oregon. Lastly after making it balls we cover it with dried mint and paprika. We sun dry them, buy mine were very dry last year. I'm sure going to try your recipe, but will change the spices.

I wanted a nice tangy cheese to use as a spread, and I thought this might work. It did! I made a quarter recipe - 2 litres of milk - and used a little bit more rennet and I'm glad I did because the curd was very loose in spite of it. I transferred it to cheese cloth anyway, and salted it halfway through while it was still very runny. To my delight I got exactly what I was hoping for! After a couple of hours in the fridge the texture was nice and firm. And the yield was very good at 325 g (16%). I did not add garlic nor did I make balls, I just packed it in a nice bowl. Thanks for the recipe!

I’m so glad; it’s fun and satisfying! If you make this recipe, you may need to sterilize your spices in the oven for 15 min at 375F. Some people seem to have contaminated spices which have mould spores, so please do this as a precaution before coating your cheese balls.

I am so very happy to have found your videos. You really have a great knack for explaining the steps and extra pointers, with such ease. I live in Bahia, Brazil now and decided to make cheese and charcuterie to keep me busy. I have recently been able to find raw ewe's milk and am just going crazy with how good it tastes. Even yogurt is extra special and don't even mention the ricotta. At the moment, I am following your recipe for Belper Knolle with the ewe's milk. Since we are close to Christmas, I will be rolling the balls into spices that will give a Holiday feeling. I will keep you posted on the final result and what I used to cover. My next cheese will be the sheep Roquefort, but I need to find one culture - Leuconostoc Mesenteroides before. Do you have any more ewe milk recipes? Is it possible to send you some photos of my cheeses? Thank you for the posting!

Hello Lynn! Thanks so much for writing. I really enjoyed reading what you wrote. You are lucky to have access to ewe's milk since it is not very common for most people. I don't have any other videos featuring ewe's milk however I have made my feta recipe with 100% ewe's milk before and it worked very well. It gave me a creamier/softer feta than when I made it with goats' milk. You may have to order the leuconostoc mesenteries from a cheesemaking specialty supply store on-line. I get mine from Glengarry Cheese Supply in Canada. It would be still fine if it was shipped internationally. This ingredient is really important--I have made the roquefort recipe without it and the paste is too dense (I could show you pics to prove it). Yes, I would love to get photos of your cheeses. Send them to cheesewithmaryanne@gmail.com . (By the way, I have been to Brazil twice and loved it there!)

What brand of liquid rennet are you using? Is it double or single strength? I use 6 drops of double strength rennet in this recipe, so if you only have single strength rennet, you can double this amount to 12 drops. Really, you do NOT need a lot of rennet for this recipe due to the long/overnight incubation time.

Hi Nancy, yes there definitely are a lot of similarities to shanklish in terms of procedure (soft cheeses using a small amount of rennet and long incubation time, etc.). The sun-drying stage while making shanklish is hard to do where I live in Canada (as the weather is so variable) and the hot peppers really change the direction of flavour to something totally different (and yummy) than a Belper Knolle, but both are so good!

I covered it with sumac and dried mint and left it in my sunroom to dry. Today I tried one and it's very yummy, it's not the cheese it's supposed to be and it's not Shanklish either. My daughter thinks that the oregano gave her smokes after taste. So I'm gonna leave the rest to dry more, but I have no clue how to store it !
