Make the cheese at this intensely practical DIY 'hands-in' workshop because the key to good cheese making is knowing how the cheese should look and most importantly, how it should feel at different points in its creation.

During this three hour hands-on workshop, you will be guided through the cheese making process while you make Halloumi and Ricotta which you will then be able to take home and show off at the end!

Come and join Alexis, the Curious Cook, and discover the joy of cheese making. All ingredients and recipes are included.
