You missed your chance to start a goat diary.
I have made cheese, used Rennet in the beginning and then made many pounds with vinegar or lemon juice, it is not that difficult, takes more time checking the temperture than anything else.
There is nothing quite like goat milk for ice cream, it is different, better and so good. All you need is a few berries and a pinch of salt, maybe a dash of honey. and freeze.
When I kept goats, I did not drink cokes, and for drinks at work, I put a little strawberry jello and milk in a jar, shook it well and filled it with ice cubes, that simple to take a shake to work.
Gravy, puddings, breads, LOL, so many of my recipes taste so flat today, after cooking with gallons of goat milk.
I wonder where your goat came from?
From what I’ve seen driving around this area there are more goat farms than cattle these days. Lots of horse ranches too.
Goat cheese is one of my favorites. :) I wonder what happened to that goat. LOL
I’m wondering if any of them sell the milk. I have an ice cream maker I haven’t used for years. I guess there’s never enough time to do everything.
Today is a work day and I have both an eye infection and what feels like a kidney infection this morning. One of these days I may have to give up wearing contact lenses.
Next week I am going to have to look for some source of cooking without electricity. Last week our power was out for most of the day and I found that I had tons of food but it all needed to be cooked or at least heated up and my cheap little gas BBQ would not light. Then I couldn’t get the little propane can off either. I remember the last time I did that when it was hot and the thing almost blasted off the connection. :)
I look forward to your posts later granny when I get home. Considering how things are these days, like the Chinese buying our homes now [thanks for the ping] I like hearing about how things were many years ago and your stories of your life are the best.
