Peter,

When I make the cheese, why is it important that the milk is unpasturised? And can I simply substitute different milk types (goat, sheep, cow...) or do the recipes change accordingly?

Thanks, love the book.

Ciao .. If you paturize milk , you kill off important acif producing bacilli. Commercially these are added as "starter Cultures' they acidify the milk and add distinctive favours. this is important for the preservation and curing of the cheeses.
natural milk has all the cultures it needs but it can also contain contaminants eg bad bacteria and so to control the process all austraian cheeses are made from pasturized milk.
In Europe . cheese is made from unpasturized milk and the natural bacteria will impart different flavours and texture etc ..
In Australia it is illegal to sell unpasturized milk. if you want to buy the starters or get a great book on modern , in contrast to traditional , cheesemaking ,, ring Cheeselink on 0352831396

take care . Pietro

I think you can buy unpasturised milk for cosmetic purposes. Often at health food stores or farmers markets. You may need to go underground though.

Excellent read, I just passed this onto a colleague who was doing a little research on this topic. And he actually bought me lunch because I found it for him. So I should thank you for the free lunch I got.

This is a excellent posting, I located your website browsing aol for a related topic and arrived to this. I couldn't get to much other details on this piece, so it was great to find this one. I will probably end up being back to check out some other posts that you have another time....
