The three final jars, from left to right cheese is being preserved in and with —

Olive Oil, with some sea salt and dill coating the chunks.

In the middle, a simple 5% salt brine will lead these chunks down the road to Feta. In one or two weeks the complex flavors will have developed.

And on the right, in red wine with a little lavender.

These cheeses are for an upcoming event, A Day of Fermentation and Slow Living, on September 27. Two unique 90 minute fermentation workshops (many to choose from including Cheesemaking!), artisanal snacks and drinks all day, and a farm to table feast of a luncheon.
