Easin’ Into Cheesin’ Kit

For the Earth Goddess — kitchen alchemy, dairy division: fresh cheese by your own two hands.

There is an old magic in turning milk into cheese, and this kit hands you the whole spellbook: vegetable rennet tablets, cheese salt, citric acid, grade 90 cheesecloth, gloves, and a recipe booklet with step-by-step instructions and serving suggestions. Most recipes take thirty minutes or less — from carton to cheese board before the bread's even warm.

Use cow, goat, sheep, or buffalo milk, and customize with herbs and spices for endless variety. Homemade fresh cheese costs about half of store-bought, tastes better, and doubles as the best family night or dinner-party trick in your repertoire. Give a friend cheese, they eat for a day; give this kit, and they're insufferable about mozzarella forever — in the best way.
