Event Description

Join cheesemaker David Asher Rotsztain as we explore the fascinating realm of cheese. David will demonstrate and explain the techniques for making three basic styles of cheese: paneer, yogurt cheese and camembert, an aged rennet cheese. These lessons will provide a solid foundation for those interested in making cheese at home, or anyone who wants to know how their cheese is made.

The workshop will emphasize a ‘natural cheesemaking’, with a focus on simple, DIY methods that are well suited to the home kitchen. David will also discuss the topics of raw milk, rennet-free cheeses and dairy ferments. At the end of the workshop, we will feast on our freshly made cheeses.

David Asher Rotsztain is an organic farmer and farmstead cheesemaker on Mayne Island. He developed his cheesemaking skills though various teachers, including a Brown Swiss Cow named Sunday on Cortes Island. In addition to making many varieties of cheese at home, David leads cheesemaking workshops for food security-minded organizations and cooking schools around the Salish Sea. He is a dear old friend of the UBC Farm.
