More Good Curds

I've been making lots of Queso Fresco lately, and it really is quite delicious. Not right at first; it has a sourness while it is extremely fresh that I don't like. But after a couple of days curing in salt in the fridge, it becomes something really good. 

My last batch is a hot-red-pepper flake queso fresco and I can't keep my hands off it. I think I am going to have to start separating the baby goats at night, because Iris all by herself isn't giving me enough milk to feed my cheese habit. I find myself snarling at Homero "Go milk your own goat!"

(hee hee, not really.)

    not much, actually. It's more like a more durable ricotta, if you can imagine such a thing. Actually, mine is kind of like monterey jack.
