  Review of Seattle Free School , November 07, 2008

  So apparently making cheese is easy! ish. Milk + some sort of starter or acid = fabulous cheese! Yes, there are some steps in between, but Jessica did a great job explaining the process step by step. She's quite knowledgeable, very engaging, and funny. Jessica is completely unpretentious, she reminded us again and again that cheesemaking can be done with little money and without all the fancy accoutrement that other books or instructors may push. The class was a *little* heavy on the talking side, but if you go knowing it'll be taught at a relaxing pace, you won't be disappointed. Overall, quite fun and I'm ready to get started!

  Review of Seattle Free School , November 07, 2008

  Just took this great class last night 11/7/08. We watched Jessica Dally (the teacher) make Marscapone and Gouda. It was cool to realize that making cheese really isn't all that hard.

  Jessica was fun, frank and quite knowledgeable about the process without being even a touch stuffy. Very down to earth, casual and friendly. She helps cheese-making seem like a real possibility for the general home cook.

  I particularly liked her quick tips and her demystification of all the ridgid rules you read about for cheese making that really aren't hard and fast rules.

  I'm finally motivated to give it a whirl in my own!
