Swiss Cheese Made at Home - What Recipe Made the Best Tasting Swiss Cheese? What the judges said...

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

The first step towards making Swiss cheese at home is knowing which recipe to follow. So Mary Anne made 5 Emmental-style Swiss cheeses and gave them to some of her friends to judge the taste, texture & aroma. How were the recipes different? Which Swiss cheese tasted better than all the rest? Watch the video to see which cheese was voted the best, and which one was disqualified!

Mary Anne is the Host of GIVE CHEESES A CHANCE -- a video series that teaches viewers how to make a variety of cheeses including blue cheese, labneh, yogurt, feta, Akawi and Nabulsi cheeses, cheddar, various goat cheeses, ricotta and many more.
See this link for an important article about LATE BLOW & Clostridium:
www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/arti...
Here's an important note from the article, “Strain-Dependent Cheese Spoilage Potential of Clostridium tyrobutyricum” by Lucija Podrzaj, Johanna Burtscher, Franziska Küller, and Konrad J. Domig:
“Clostridium tyrobutyricum, a Gram-positive, anaerobic, spore-forming bacterium, is considered as one of the main causative agents for spoilage of hard and semihard cheeses. … Several clostridial species, mainly Clostridium tyrobutyricum, Clostridium butyricum, Clostridium sporogenes, and Clostridium beijerinckii, have been isolated from blown cheese. The species C. tyrobutyricum is considered to be the primary cause of severe late blowing defects. … Gas is one of the major products of butyric acid fermentation, causing swelling, cracks, slits, and irregular eye formation in hard and semihard cheeses.”
(Extra notes: There are over 164 strains of clostridium!)

    Have you considered doing online classes? As I don’t live close to you, but would love to have more one on one, to be able to ask questions as I’m going through the process. I know that some would be pretty hard to do that, as the time and process being spread out, wish we lived closer to have in person.

    This is a fantastic video!! I loved watching all the tasters. Two questions: 1. Did you use the same base recipe, and did you add propionic shermanii to all of them? 2. What are you aging conditions like? Any chance you'll do a video that showcases your cheese cave?

  • @GiveCheeseaChance

    @GiveCheeseaChance

    5 ай бұрын

    I added propionic to all, and they were slightly different recipes from different sources. For example, one said to salt by weight and another said to salt "1 tbsp salt per gallon of milk"--this leads to different salt concentrations, and I have now learned how important it is to keep salt less than (or equal to) 1% salt because propionic bacteria its very salt sensitive. One recipe was a washed curd, another wasn't. Some recipes had pH markers, others didn't. Some recipes gave more info about affinage care.

    Nothing yet. These wheels have now been cut into smaller wedges and are now in the basement fridge (vacuum sealed for longevity) so I will bring them out again as time passes for special events. To be honest, I *feel* they don't need a pairing. I don't mind pairing cheeses with condiments, etc., but my gut is saying to just eat this cheese by itself. It has got a lot going on in terms of aroma and taste, so the only thing I would add is red wine. :-)

I have made fresh cheese and am getting my courage up to make cheddar and then Swiss or Jarlesberg type as these are the cheeses I use/eat the most. I’m having trouble finding the larger (8-1/2”) mold that you use as well as the aging box. I’m in Washington State. Could you share some resources for equipment. I’ve ordered from New England cheesemaking company but haven’t found these supplies there. Thanks so much.

    Interesting point, however it would have been immediately obvious since store-bought swiss has really big holes--virtually impossible to accomplish at home with a 4 lb cheese. It would have been obvious to the taste testers by sight alone. I am also comparing home-made cheese recipes to each other in the experiment.
