What's On - Cheesemaking Workshop

In this hands-on cheese making class you will learn how to make cultured butter, milky soft pillows of mozzarella and the best of the stretched curd cheeses including:

Burrata - everyone's favourite bundle of deliciousness, with an oozy filling of creamy stracciatella.

Stracciatella - fine stringy strands of mozzarella, mixed with cream and salt. The decadent filling of burrata.

We'll take a deep dive into the story of milk, beginning with life in the soil, how different seasons and type of animal influence it's composition and how to source and select the best quality, local milk for making cheese.

Included in the workshop:

A Guardswell Farm tour, discussing regenerative farming and sustainable dairy production.

A seasonal lunch with beautiful, local produce. This will be hosted in the Glasshouse (weather permitting) and prepared alongside Kristen.

Recipes and notes to take home to refer to on your cheese-making journey.

All the wonderful cheese you create!

Kristen will share with you a collection of mouth-watering recipes that showcase the cheese we make in the class, plus all her marvellous ways to use the leftover whey.

These classes are small and intimate with ample opportunity for questions, one-on-one guidance and all Kristen's tips and troubleshooting tricks. All this can only develop and strengthen your understanding and serve you well in your home kitchen.

The workshop is hosted in Guardswells beautiful demonstration kitchen, that has panoramic views over The Carse of Gowrie. Each student has their own workspace, plus all equipment and ingredients are provided.

Venue: Guardswell Farm, Kinnaird, Inchture PH14 9QZ.
