New York, NY – Do-it-yourself artisanal food making is on the rise, and now anyone can make goat cheese right in their own kitchen in under an hour! The new Chèvre Cheesemaking Kit available from Roaring Brook Dairy includes everything needed to make gourmet goat cheese at home – just pick up fresh goat milk from a farmer or natural grocer and you're all set.
The Chèvre Cheesemaking Kit includes supplies to make approximately eight batches of 6-8 oz. logs of goat cheese, allowing customers to experiment with recipes and perfect their craft. The package (which does not require refrigeration) contains an authentic French cheese mold, cheesecloth, herbs, specialty cheesemaking ingredients, and an illustrated instruction manual with a glossary, troubleshooting guide, recipes, and "mix-in" suggestions.
After working in the cheese business for close to 30 years, Leslie Kozupsky founded Roaring Brook Dairy in 2010 as a way to share the art of cheesemaking with fellow cheese lovers.
"The Chevre Cheesemaking Kit offers a great way to learn the craft of cheesemaking on your own time and impress your friends with the delicious results!" explains Kozupsky. "It also makes a unique gift for the 'foodies' in your life, whether friends, family, teachers, or co-workers and is a fun addition to any gift basket."
The company also sells a Mozzarella Cheesemaking Kit, a Homemade Fresh & Creamy Butter Making Kit, and a Mozzarella Refill Kit. All products are available for $21 to $25 at a growing number of fine gourmet stores, gift shops, and housewares retailers.
