Romano is a hard grating cheese and one of the world’s most popular Italian cheeses. It was first produced near Rome and originally made with ewe’s milk but is now often made with a combination of cow and goat’s milk. Participants will take home the freshly made Romano to age and make a feta on the day that can be used immediately.

You will be inspired and empowered in this half-day workshop to produce delicious cheeses from scratch in your own kitchen. This will be a fun-filled morning finished off with a shared lunch featuring samples of Isobel’s cheeses and a glass of wine.

Maker of artisan cheeses, Isobel Piper is a veteran Foundation presenter and winner of numerous prizes for her cheeses.  Isobel’s classes are very popular so get in quick .
