Home Cheesemaking Workhop

Sunday, October 5, 1:00-3:00 PM

Join Rebecca Noble, artisan cheesemaker and educator, for a delicious journey into home cheesemaking at Passiflora Springs Winery. This workshop begins with 90 minutes of live instruction and hands-on experience in making Crème Fraîche and Fromage Blanc, two beloved French delicacies.

You’ll learn a little history of these fresh cheeses, discover how to use them in both savory and sweet dishes, and take home enough of Rebecca’s kitchen-made cheeses to create Tarte Flambée, a crispy, flavorful flatbread from the Alsace region of France.

What’s included:

• Step-by-step instruction and hands-on practice

• Cheese samples to taste along with Passiflora Springs Winery wines

• Recipes for Crème Fraîche, Fromage Blanc, and Tarte Flambée

• Handouts with tips for making fresh cheeses at home

Wine will also be available for purchase by the glass or bottle.

Whether you’re a seasoned cook or a curious beginner, this workshop will give you the confidence to bring artisanal cheese-making into your own kitchen. High-quality ingredients, careful techniques, and a touch of science combine to create delicious, fresh cheeses at a fraction of the store cost.
