How to Make a Marbled Cheddar Cheese

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Marbled Cheddar is starting to increase in popularity, so I thought I would try one out for myself. Based on my Cheddar recipe, this one is a 10 litres batch split in half using two pots. Impress your friends and family and give this cheese a go!
Ingredients
• 10 litres (10 quarts) whole milk
• 1/8 teaspoon Mesophilic culture
• 1/2 teaspoon Calcium Chloride diluted in 1/4 cup cool non-chlorinated water
• 1/2 teaspoon Liquid Rennet (IMCU 200) diluted in 1/4 cup cool non-chlorinated water
• 12 drops of Annatto diluted in 1/4 cup cool non-chlorinated water
• 2 Tablespoons of non-iodised Salt

I've seen commercial videos and thought that was breathtaking because of the hugh vats, and the men who make cheese...But never in my wildest dreams could have I have ever thought of doing what you've done for educating the public with your presentation. Personally, I would not have the capacity for the waiting process for all the steps to achieve what needs to be done, especially the ripening process. I love Cheese, and can't imagine life without it. Kudos to you. Thank you for your work. 100 thumbs up for you.

Funny thing, a store had a sampling of Cheese at a store I was shopping at this afternoon, and they had Chocolate Cheese. I was good. A cross between rich chocolate fudge and Cheddar. While I was eating my third piece, I thought of you making your Cheese. I bought a half pound. On the drive home, I thought, "oh..why not," sooo---I ate most of it. Just couldn't stop!!! I'm going to save the little that's left for tomorrow...hopefully...LOL!!! I'll probably be clogged up for a week. Oh well, we only live once. Thank you again, E M N., 7:56 PM E S T

I haven't taken the plunge yet and invested in a Cheese making kit. However, I think I'm ready to start with Fresh Cheeses. Why continue to buy them from the Market when I can make them myself...... Then I'll be ready for something more challenging. My favorite Cheese are Jarlsberg, Havarti and Muenster... In that order. I'm not a big mold cheese fan but you make Camemberts look Delicious!

EDIT: You mentioned using a hot water bath as a means for keeping the curds and whey up to temp rather than your double boiler style method during the video, I think a sous vide device in a large enough container (or maybe even 2 so you can have one at each end) to hold both of these pots in water would be perfect for something like that! I really enjoyed the video, thanks again!

    Gavin, I was wondering if it was going to be a problem to make this cheese with 3 gallons of milk when on the Mesophillic culture packet it clearly states that the pack of culture would treat up to two gallons. So technically you I should be using 1.5 packets of the culture. So far I have only found this in the little 5 pack containers. Any thoughts on this? Also I my cheese research it states that C101 is good to 104 degrees. I have a hard time with temperature and a batch of cheddar got up to 108 degrees. Would you think this caused a significant issue? Thanks in advance, John - Spring, TX

    I shall try this soon as I'm thinking about Christmas gifts, but have you ever gone one step further, and mixed in a third colour? Sage cheese, for example?

    Gavin, you almost have me convinced to make some cheese, even though I don't really like it. The art form behind it is what I fond most interesting and potentially rewarding. Anyway, my question is about the milks that are proper for cheese making, and what would provide the best results with the fresh cheese kit from your affiliated online store. I have a dairy close by that advertises "raw" milk for sale, as well as butter, caramel, and what-not. Would raw milk be acceptable for these recipes, or should I pasteurize it before making a cheese with it? Thanks in advance for the response! Love your content! It is so interesting.

    You could use either raw or pasteurized milk, but unless you have highly specialized equipment for both heating and cooling the milk, it would be inadvisable for you to pasteurize it yourself. For one thing, you need to heat it very evenly for the pasteurization to be effective without damaging the biochemical structure of the milk. Also, once milk has been pasteurized, it is more vulnerable to contamination, because it's warm, and nearly all of the competing microflora are gone. So it needs to be handled very carefully while you are bringing it back down to a temperature suitable for the starter culture to thrive. It would be safer to use milk that is already pasteurized, or to use the raw.

    Quick question. Regarding the salt. Are you using fine or coarse? I'm all set to go but need this info. You are amazing

    Big fan of your videos and channel. I do have an experiement that you might find interesting about aging the cheese. There is a company that makes breathable vaccum bags called umai bags, these bags are usually used for dry aging meats and charcuterie, it would be interesting to know your opinion on using those bags, to vaccum and age instead of regular fully sealed bags as the moisture will stay within the cheese rather then escape. Umai bags from my research allow oxygen and moisture transfer between the protein substance and the overall air, which might make the cheese age better when taking into consideration that the surface moisture wont stay inside the bag or wax, which can result in spoilage i guess or even mold, and the cheese can breath, pretty much replicating cave aging but under vaccum so much safer conditions without external contamination. I really hope to get your opinion on the proposal and maybe an experiment?? Maybe the best way to tackle the experiement or your thoughts on the matter, if we take the cheese and air dry it for 2 or 3 days until dry to touch, sprits it with vinegar or brine solution to fully get rid of surface bacteria and vaccum it in umai bags, leave it for a month or so in cheese fridge and then waxxing it or vaccuming it, which gives it time to expell excess moisture and breath and age well for first month, and after that, with fully sealing it with wax for example, it would age further for as much as you want after that one month period well dried and aged. Your thoughts please? And sorry for long text. Was just randomly thinking of this and thought i d take your opinion on it. Cheers,

    I love your videos, I enjoy watching you make wonderful delicious food of the gods, CHEESE! Is it possible to post some videos about making cheeses with jalapeno peppers or with herbs and spices? I recently had one that was like a Fontana with grape skins, and one that was like Swiss but smoked and with fennel seeds. Yummy. Also, any substitute to real rennet. like a bacterial or a plant based product?

    I can't remember which video it was because I've binge-watched so many recently, but there was one I saw where Gavin mentioned the rennet he was using was a vegetable rennet. A quick peek at the Wikipedia page indicates there are multiple plant-based rennets, including from some fairly common sources like nettles, thistles, and ivy.

    There are actually 2 types of commercially available rennet (both in liquid and tablets): animal-based and vegetable-based. Both have the same enzymes but one is sourced from animals and the other is sourced from plants. There are some plants that are a natural source of rennet, but i think you would have an easier time just getting the veggie-based stuff in a bottle, especially if you're just starting out. Once you get a feel for how things work in cheesemaking, maybe you then you could experiment with botanical enzymes.
