09:30 - 12:30 pm Mozzarella, Feta, & Halloumi
13:30 - 16:30 pm Sourdough Bread & Lactic Fermented Foods (Vegan Friendly)

FRESH CHEESE WORKSHOP

Mozzarella, Haloumi, and Feta are three fresh cheeses that you can learn to make in your own kitchen without specialised equipment. You don’t need your own cow to make cheese as shop-bought milk will work just as well.

This workshop is aimed at the beginner, and you will soon see that it’s quite easy to make your own delicious cheese from shop-bought milk.

Plenty of opportunities for participation from the group as we make the three cheeses. Samples available for tasting and e-recipes included. Just bring yourselves along and get ready to make your own cheese at home!

About Elisabeth Fekonia

Elisabeth is an award winning and accredited permaculture teacher, living in the Sunshine coast hinterland. After a decade of learning the skills of self-reliance in growing and producing our own food, Elisabeth now dedicates her time to pass on her skills to others so that they might do the same. It has been an exciting journey of discovering the lost art of home cheese making, sourdough bread and making wine made from surplus fruit. She learnt that fermenting food such as in sourdough and cheese making has many health advantages and it’s also about reviving forgotten skills from the past.
