This, while not an instructional, has some good knowledge on sheep's milk, re: taste, fat content, etc. It's a Pdf, so you can directly download from this link if you want to avoid viewing it online. By monkeypup, 2 years 12 weeks ago | |
This is just about the best and most well-informed breakdown on Sheep's Milk and cheese. Some parts of it are more complex than you'll need, but this should tell you everything you need to know. By monkeypup, 2 years 12 weeks ago | |
This one might be the winner for you. It's about artisan and farm cheeses, but their is a section specifically about a Sheep Dairy in Vermont (your neck of the woods) and the cheese they make. This one might be better than the last book, but both in conjunction will be all you will need. By monkeypup, 2 years 12 weeks ago | |
Cheese making is very similar, regardless of animal, though each has its quirks. My parents own a goat farm and sell the cheese at market every week. Sheep Cheese is a little more rare than Cow or Goat cheese. This page is a pretty good primer on general cheese making. More Sheep-specific links to come. If I can't find what I'm looking for, I'll scan and upload one of my parent's books on cheese making, specifically addressing Sheep. By monkeypup, 2 years 12 weeks ago | |
Not sure if you know it, but most Feta is made from the milk of sheep or goats. Though this recipe calls for goat's milk, it should work well with sheep's milk. By monkeypup, 2 years 12 weeks ago | |
This is a great starter book for cheese making. Actually, it's better than that. You shouldn't really need another book (though I'll post another one you might like in a second). It has a section on Sheep's milk. By monkeypup, 2 years 12 weeks ago |
