Guest guest Posted April 12, 2003 Report Share Posted April 12, 2003 Bobbi, yes you can make whey without culture as long as you have raw milk. Set it in a stainless steel container and put the lid on it. Leave it sit at room temperature for about 2 days. The curds and fat will come to the top. Below will be the whey and some cream cheese. The whey can be strained through several layers of cheesecloth. hope that helps, danny Creek Bend Dairy Farm Harry & Peggy Strite 11917 Snug Harbor Lane port, MD 21795 301-582-4135 cbdfarm@... Hi. My name is Bobbi, and I'm brand new to this listserv. I read Nourishing Traditions by Sally Fallon last fall, and a few weeks ago, I finally found a great supply of raw milk. I'm interested in making some whey this weekend, but I don't have any culture to add to it. I noticed that Sally Fallon states in her book that raw milk will separate on its own. Has anyone had any luck making whey without having any culture on hand? Thanks, Bobbi bjmarkert@... ===== Bobbi Jo Markert bjmarkert@...

Guest guest Posted April 12, 2003 Report Share Posted April 12, 2003 And if you don't have cheesecloth, some paper towels have worked fine for me, although I'm sure other listmembers would be horrified and could list objectionable chemicals in paper... (I only did it a few times, because I can get plenty of whey from a local maker of raw cheese...) I think I've let it sit on the counter for about a week because my house was cold... I like sour food, and I thought the taste was okay, but now I just make kefir, which is like heaven in a mason jar.
