At some point and time someone else on this forum made a really holy stilton,it looked just like a Havarti cheese! Whomever it was said that the cheese tasted really nice with no ill effects :) I am not sure who reported this so I will look around when I get home tonight(noon right now) from a bowling birthday party.Until then...

I ground up some stilton and used that along with cultured butter milk as per Rik's recipe.

I'll eat some right now just to prove it's safe :wink:

Wow..

That is without doubt the strongest cheese I have ever tasted, the roof of my mouth is still glowing 10 minutes later.

LOL, can be fun being a guine pig.

Maybe its the buttermilk giving an inconsistancy. Did more reading I found that a proper "cheese" starter is important to get the "cheese" quality. Buttermilk is a cheap/quick alternative to get the acidity. Using another cheese as the main culture is no problem.
