Make a Cotswold cheese with me. I use raw milk for this cheese, but you can use store bought milk just not ultra pasteurized. for this, I used clabber culture to ripen but you can also just use a mesophilic culture.
Here is the recipe
Cotswold

1 tsp meso culture or 1 1/4 cup clabber8-10
1 tsp calcium chloride ( optional if you are using raw milk) diluted in 1/4 cup of water
1 tsp rennet diluted in a 1/4 cup of water
5 Tablespoon salt
seasonings: Chives 1 tsp per gallon, dried onions 1 tsp per gallon and granulated garlic 1/4tsp per gallon
Directions:
heat milk to 90°F
add culture ( meso backsplash whey or clabber) stir to incorporate
ripen 45 minutes
add calcium chloride if using
add rennet and stir gently
allow to sit 45 minutes
check for a clean break
wisk curds and allow them to heal for 5 minutes
stir for 20 minutes off heat
stir 35 minutes heating to 104°F taking the whole time to reach temperature

I'm interested in a step by step process on how to make a clabber culture starter

[@DryHollowHomestead]

I'll make a video soon 😊

I've made Cotswold 3 times now, using clabber and raw Jersey milk. Every time, the curds just don't form a closed rind. There are always crumbly bits falling off the outside. Of course I eat these, and they are delicious!! But I really want to get a neat rind on this cheese, which I manage to do with most other cheeses. I've been using 22 lbs weight to start, working up to 88 lbs, and also keeping the press warm. The first cheese I started eating at just 2 weeks, and it was so good that almost 5 lbs was gone within the month! So the crumbly outside didn't matter too much. The recipes I've used, give longer times for each step than your recipe. Where is that from? I'm thinking that speeding up my process should help. I think those longer times are making the curds too dry and acid, so they don't knit well. Have you come across this problem?

Thank you for sharing! What a lovely family! This will be my next cheese to make. 😊

[@DryHollowHomestead]

You're welcome 😊 I am about to open this and taste it 🫠 I can't wait!

[@rubygray7749]

I made this about 10 days ago, from my raw jersey milk and clabber. From day 1, the taste of the curds was phenomenal. Since I want to know how the taste progresses as cheeses age, and I know I can soon make another one to age much longer, I have been taking slices off the side of my fresh 5 pound cheese already. The flavour and texture are wonderful! It melts and crisps up amazingly. My friends raved about this cheese today! It will definitely be a regular cheese for me to make.

[@ricksmith7631]

ive done curd before and was kinda intrigued about this method, not sure id have used the whisk, maybe a little longer shelf time as a tradeoff , just an idea but could you do a vid on clabber, how to start it and keep it living.

[@DryHollowHomestead]

It depends on the recipe I am following. I do have a clabber video 😊 Thanks for watching

[@jo-annjewett198]

If you wanted to annatto for color when is that done?

[@DryHollowHomestead]

You add the annatto after your milk has ripened with the culture and before adding the rennet.

Nice video and good tutorial.
