Tasting the 8 week old Caerphilly Cheese

[@bellaluna2921]

That looks so good, I love all kinds of cheese..... :))

[@yourdrunkaunt5409]

Cheese = ❤

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Thank you .

[@anitadawson1113]

One of the reasons I watch and enjoy your channel is that you often make things in the kitchen that I have never tried. Always interesting to watch and learn. This one did not let me down.

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Thank you Anita.

[@sianhawkins8115]

Well done. I'm from a little town, just 3 miles from Carephilly and I'm so proud of you giving this a go. I wish I could send you some cheese from my part of Wales to try. Love your passion and pride in what you've done xx

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Thank you very much .

[@aussysurvival]

Thank you Dale. Luv your channel. Thank you for sharing. Al the best. 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Thank you .

[@tinahoward5931]

Thanks Dale. I couldn't help but think of my pestering you about your cheeses in the beginning. I never tasted of any cheese besides mozzarella until I was in my 30's! I've missed out on so much. I never had garden veggies until then either. So there's no time to waste. Much love from Kentucky.

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Thank you Tina.

I believe that coating is PVA. We use it as an adhesive in bookbinding.

Beautiful cheese, looks delicious.

Thank you Kathleen.

[@linasormin9663]

Very nice and perfect shape of chaerphilly. Thanks for sharing. Will add this one too, in my to do list. Thanks again Sir.

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Thank you Lina.

[@karenjones4882]

It looks like a success for sure, Dale. It’s great to see the follow-ups of your cheese-making ventures. I got a copy of your cheese-making book out of my local library and am checking out the recipes. I’m going to ask for a sous-vide for my next birthday. It certainly seems like a reliable way way to maintain a consistent temp.

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Thank you Karen the sous vide makes the whole process so much easier not any faster but it helps you get the temperatures so accurately . Mine is the cheapest one on Amazon as I don't have any intentions of using it to cook with.

[@jmoff54]

Looks yummy, and a beautiful knife. I’ve never seen the vacuum pack sealer work before. Very good video, but now I’m hungry LOL. Thanks Dale.

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

I love the knife. The vacuum sealer is great for anything that you are freezing.

[@stevenbp101]

Hi Dale, really enjoy your channel. I use to have a sandwich shop in which we ordered different cheeses and they came in shaped like yours. Brought back old memories. Thanks for the video. God bless. (Old guy from Arkansas)🇺🇸

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Thank you Steven the mold that I used to make this cheese is a Gouda mold.

[@oceanbrzzz]

What a treat. I’ve never had this cheese either. I have made your mozzarella and cottage cheese several times, one day I’ll get the equipment to do the aged cheeses. Now I have to go back and review how you made this. Sigh, my memory isn’t what it used to be. Thank you.

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Welcome to the club Marcia I left my memory somewhere too. As aged firm cheese go this was the easiest I've ever made.

[@ginahill503]

Bravo, bravo, bravo!! Just discovered your channel, and so excited to make this cheese. I am in nearly your exact range of expertise. Caerphilly is brand new to me, too though! I've made Red Leicester, and other Edam type cheeses. I think this one looks perfect! Going to go find one of those molds! I have an Edam mould that is similar and produces a nice spherical shape, but it doesn't have the removable liner, which is a great feature. Love this Caerphilly shape, and I've just started making 4lb cheeses. Also just ordered a Sous Vide yesterday, and can't wait for it to come. It's got to be the best new tool for a cheesemaker, ever. Just found out about it from another cheesemaker on another channel, so great to see you using one too. Brilliant! Thank for the video. So glad it worked out. Can't wait to try of myself! Cheddaring, is a lot of work...but this cheese looks so much easier. Thanks again!

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Good luck with yours it is very good and can be enjoyed when it is very young.

[@ginahill503]

@@DaleCalderCampobello Thanks! I'll let you know how I get on!

[@vikkigillespie4091]

Wow I have never tried this kind .But it looks good.

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Thank you Vikki

[@peterstean2138]

Well Dale it certainly looks like Caerphilly and it has the right texture. From your description it appears to taste like Caerphilly too - Wales would be proud :D

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Thank you Peter I'm on the lookout for some commercially made to compare it to but I must say I like it .

[@kittymorse7402]

I like Saltines too. I eat them just plain with coffee.

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Thank kitty a great treat with just butter on them.

[@merindymorgenson3184]

I made this one when I was living in Bangladesh as it didn’t have to be aged long. Mine had a bit of a lemony hint to it. Wasn’t sure if that was standard for it, or not, I really liked it though, and I’m looking forward to making it again.

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

It is a very good cheese and ready to eat very quickly.

[@janicemalott4962]

Hi Dale ..I have never made cheese before. Watching you eating it makes me want cheese and eat it on a ritz cracker ......Janice

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Thank you Janice.

[@monaware7824]

I'm intrigued by this cheese and its unique flavor. I like a crumbly cheese. Hope Angel got to taste test. Thanks!

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Yes it is Angel approved LOL

[@gigistitchin]

The cheese looks perfect. I guess it helps when you have all the proper equipment to make it! Enjoy!

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Thank you yes with the right equipment the process is much easier.

[@ritamilford3129]

Well done, you are truly talented. That cheese looks wonderful. Enjoy.😍🌈🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿😷

Thank you Rita.

[@fourseasonsnorth]

Wow, looks great! Looks like you made it very Carefully ;-)

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

LOL. Is this one that you have made? I've never had it before so not sure what it should taste like.

[@T.T.LovesAmbience]

I always get excited for the cheese tasting. I have no patience...lol. Good (and tasty) things come to those who wait, I need to learn that.

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

LOL Thank you .

[@theresadupuis8475]

GOOD MORNING DALE 😊 LOOKING GOOD AGAIN !! BLESSINGS TO YOU AND ANGEL 👍 👍 👍

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Thank you Theresa.

[@SouthpawDavey]

looks very good and firm. The vacuum packer is great. Cheese making is still like witch craft to me ;-)

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Thank you I would like to have some commercially made cheese to compare it to but it is good and different from any other that I've made.

[@sandragayle4806]

I enjoy cooking and usually buy sharp cheddar from a store in Wisconsin , They have a selection of aged cheese 10 to 12 year. I like using the aged cheese in casseroles, it only takes a small amount to give the flavor to the whole casserole. Best in broccoli casserole :) After watching your videos it has made me want to give a try at making cheese.

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Thank you it is a very rewarding hobby.

[@lifeinthailand]

It looks like a good one from here.

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Thank you .

[@EllieChristine744]

Oh - that sure looked tasty! Good job! :-)

[@nancyincanada5553]

that looks sooo creamy and delicious:) I've tried many of your recipes, but don't have the courage to attempt the cheese making process LOL I hope that you and Angel have fully recovered from the ordeal with another dog on the walking trail.

Thank you Nancy.

Nice that your initial go at the sous vide was a success! Looks very good.

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

LOL Thank you Paul.

[@jayoneill1533]

Your latest cheese looks very tasty. At the end of the video I clicked on the “shop” link and was taken to Teespring without any issue so that’s working.

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Thank you Jay.

[@gromit9322]

Glamorgan sausages now you’ve got the cheese.

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Is there a veggie version LOL.

[@gromit9322]

Definitely veggie! Here’s the link to Gavin Webber’s video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/f3fWpn-fqcuUqrs

[@tofty21]

It looks like a perfect Caerphilly to me. It’s not got the complexity of a Cheddar but it is still a good cheese. A similar cheese to Caerphilly would be a wendslydale which comes from Yorkshire.

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Thank you I've had Wenslydale but it was so long ago I can't compare them.

[@tofty21]

Dale Calder I’m new to cheesemaking but I’m going to try your Caerphilly recipe. I’ve only made mozzarella, ricotta and a soft goats cheese so far so this will be m first “real” cheese.

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Good luck with it I think it is a good one to start worth making aged cheeses.

[@myheartisinjapan3184]

This cheese looks incredible, Dale. Now I need to go back and rewatch the video where you made it. And decide whether I could handle the process. I wonder, without a cheese fridge, would that still work?

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Thank you Lori you need someplace that is around 54 degrees to age the cheese . A cheese fridge is just an ordinary fridge running with a special thermostat , that you can buy from cheesemaking supply places, which lets the fridge run warmer than normal. Mine is a small bar type fridge but any second hand fridge would work.

[@myheartisinjapan3184]

Dale Calder thank you, Dale. I’m going to look for a small bar fridge with a thermostat I can plug into it.

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

This is the one that I use cheesemaking.com/products/refrigerator-thermostat

[@phillipsmom6252]

Yummy, In the United States, I would compare it to a New York White Cheddar. It’s better if it’s more crumbly, or dryer.

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Yes that is the texture just not the flavour.

[@debbieheath7838]

It reminds me of making miso! I've seen miso making on Bon Appétite, Brad makes it. I LOVE cheese, but I never had this kind before I became vegan, or since, of course. I'm glad you enjoyed it! I eat vegan cheeses, but I have a few recipes I need to try still. I will when I can. I love your videos, and am glad I'm getting caught up! You sincerely inspire me, thank you for that!! Always, Amanda H.

Hi Dale Awesome Cheese . It looks a little like Havarty i think. I will have to watch how you made that! Thank you for sharing your videos! Love from Ontario 🍃🌠💟🌠🍃

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Thank you Claudette I see what you mean I think it is a bit drier and crumbly than Havarty though.

[@heatherchambers1609]

We need a subscription that includes the videos and samples 😊

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

LOL Thank you Heather.

[@johnhowaniec5979]

They say this cheese won't respond well in flavor if you age it to long?

[@chefevilee9566]

This looks and sounds fantastic. I didn’t see you make this cheese. I’m going to go back and watch the video. I’m all about the less complicated choose making situations😂

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Thank you Lee this has the least complicated recipe of any that I've made so far.

[@valerieshepherd6823]

Hi Dale, here in The Uk we pronounce it Car- fillie and 3 lbs 11 oz is 1.673 kg... so now you know lol xxx

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Thank you Valerie that is my pronunciation too but I had someone correct me and say it is Care - filly.

[@mallory0322]

🌼🌺Greetings Dale and Angel. The cross section is beautiful! Looks creamy and semi soft like a havarti or gouda, with lovely mini air pockets. Is the mild tang a bit like swiss? Wishing you a wonderful weekend🌺🌼

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Thank you Mallory I wouldn't compare it to Swiss can't think of a cheese that is similar art is drier and more crumbly than havarti to gouda.

[@johnparkerthegimpygardener]

Nice knife ! i need one like that with a full tang . The one i have that style broke out of the handle . I see in the back ground you have a kitchen aid toaster oven . How do you like yours and have you had any problems . ? I have one but the timer nobs dont always shut off ,right from new have to watch it of the house fills with smoke ,and then it gets noisey . Cheese looks great !

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Thank you John. I have a set of knives that look like this one out in the cabin but there isn't any comparison I love this thing but they are expensive. This is the one that I have www.amazon.ca/WÜSTHOF-4188-7-Santoku-Hollow-Edge/dp/B0073UQDRY/ref=sr_1_20?crid=G2PVF5RRUAS4&keywords=wusthof+knife&qid=1583628017&sprefix=worst%2Caps%2C192&sr=8-20 I've had the Kitchen aid oven for several years no and no issues with it at all and I use it a lot.

[@gpants3633]

What kind of wine do you think you would pair it with?

With pie sounds good to me. Angel is fully recovered but is a bit nervous when she meets large dogs.

[@rubygray7749]

Looks like wonderful cheese, but nothing like any Caerphilly I ever ate. It is very white, not as dry and hard as yours, doesn't have a hard rind, is definitely crumbly, with a pronounced fresh acid taste, and is eaten from about 3 weeks.

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Thank you

[@lisaarmato6911]

Do you think it would be good in mac & cheese? Or is it better as a table cheese, do you think?

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Not sure but it makes a great grilled cheese sandwich.

[@merindymorgenson3184]

I used some of the one I made in Mac-n-cheese for my kids. It was mixed with some other cheeses, but I felt the Caerphilly made a very nice addition. Not sure how well it would melt by itself.

[@mvlmeco1]

I love to see this, but i'm having difficulty with the sound. since changing your setup the sound quality is difficult to listen to. there is background noise and then everything mechanical is far sharper than your lovely voice. You sort of sound like you are in a tunnel. Being partially deaf, it really takes much of the enjoyment out of viewing the videos. I have to also admit, i'd rather be over your shoulder like an old friend, then feeling like i just sitting in the audience with strangers i don't know. Being staged as it is now, i am sure it is easier for you, but it definitely loses some of its "friendliness". Nonetheless, thank you so much for making these videos.

[@DaleCalderCampobello]

Thank you Margaret you are the first to say they are having this issue.

[@mvlmeco1]

@@DaleCalderCampobello it is probably because my hearing is so bad. I have to crank it up to the highest audio setting and i hear something that sounds like a fan over your lovely voice. LOL and actually i liked the much closer view previously... but that is just me.
