Guest guest Posted August 13, 2004 Report Share Posted August 13, 2004 Forgive my ignorance, but what is 'butter muslin'? Peace, Blane If God is for us, who can be against us?

Guest guest Posted August 13, 2004 Report Share Posted August 13, 2004 Blane, Butter muslin is very fine muslin. I buy it from New England Cheese Company because (supposedly) the larger holes in the rougher muslin will not capture some of the softer curds when you are making cheese. So I use that. For buttermilk and sour cream probably anything that would let the milk breath would work. Butter muslin is just what I use.

Guest guest Posted August 13, 2004 Report Share Posted August 13, 2004 Yes, thank you I couldn't think of the other name for the cloths. LOL, I am sleep deprived this morning and the brain is not functioning well. Does anyone else have a method of making sour cream and buttermilk than what I posted?

Guest guest Posted August 13, 2004 Report Share Posted August 13, 2004 Flour sack towels is one cheap alternative as well. They can be washed and reused, to boot! (Butter muslin can be washed and reused too.) Walmart carries them, 5 towels for $5, I think (or $4 or $3?). Sara Blane,Butter muslin is very fine muslin.
