How We Make Sheep Milk Feta
Curious how we make sheep milk feta? We get that. Read through our five-step process to understand the behind-the-scenes operation…
- Gathering the Raw Sheep Milk: First, high-quality raw milk has to be milked from grass-fed sheep. The enzymes found in raw sheep milk add to the nutritional power of this cheese.
- Processing the Milk: After the sheep are milked, the milk is heated to a specific temperature that won’t pasteurize the milk but preserve its natural health benefits. Starter cultures are added to begin fermenting the milk, then vegetable rennet, which helps the milk create curds. The milk will begin to thicken and the curds separate from the whey.
- Preparing the Curds: Next, the curds are cut into smaller pieces and gently cooked to get rid of any excess whey plus ensure the curds are firmly set. Then they are pressed and molded to the desired shape
- Salting and Aging the Cheese: Now, the sheep milk feta is salted for flavor and placed in a cool location for an aging process of 60 days.
- Packaging and Selling: Finally, the cheese is packaged and shipped directly to you! Mmmm.
