Hunt Gather Talk: Basic Cheesemaking

In this episode, I geek out on basic cheesemaking — the original way to preserve milk and dairy products — with Claudia Lucero of Urban Cheesecraft in Portland, Oregon. It’s a fun, super useful conversation about what equipment you need (hint: not much), where to get good milk, and how to actually make a few basic cheeses at home.
