Join Kristen for a day of cheese making, cooking and sharing a seasonal lunch. Together we'll explore the art of crafting cheese, seamlessly weaving it with the vibrant flavours and essence of the season.

In this class you will learn how to make buttermilk ricotta, yoghurt, labne, marinated labne, mascarpone, cultured butter and a simple hard cheese for you to mature at home.
You’ll also learn how to incorporate your freshly made cheese (and whey!) to create a delicious lunch on the day.

Lunch will include:

Baked ricotta
