Many of the bacteria and enzymes present in raw milk are beneficial to the cheesemaking process, so much so that you can reduce the ammount of starter that is used when making cheese with raw milk. Raw milk is milk that has not been heat treated to destroy any bacteria present. Jess: Raw milk, whether from a cow or a goat, can be used to make many of our favorite and most familiar cheeses. A cheese made with skim milk tends to be much harder than that made with whole milk. Monterey Jack and Mozzarella are sometimes made with a portion of skim milk, blended with whole milk. Jess: Skim milk is mostly used for making hard cheeses like Romano and Parmesean. As a result it will not form a curd and will make only a mush resembling ricotta if an attempt is made to make cheese with it. This milk has been heated to such a high temperature that all of the native bacteria and enzymes are completely changed and destroyed. The only milk that should not be used for cheesemaking is ULTRAPASTEURIZED milk. This can mean pasteurized milk from the grocery store, or raw milk fresh off the farm. Jess: Most cheeses, with a few specific exceptions, are made with whole milk. Enjoy! Q: What kind of milk can I use to make cheese?
