Re: Teacloth/cheesecloth-where do you buy these?

[Guest guest]

I use a piece of plain muslin to drip yogurt. It works great and I throw it

in the washing machine when it's done. You can get it at any fabric store. I

would wash it first before I use it because who knows what fabric might be

treated with.

I use a coffee filter instead of cheesecloth and it works fine.

I use regular cheesecloth which can be found in most grocery stores -

you just have to ask, but you might have to describe it because I've

found that most the the teenie-boppers that are in today's grocery

stores have never heard of it. (Look for an older lady to ask!

LOL!) It's a " loose woven gauze used for cooking. " In VA it is

usually found in the baking or foil/plastic wrap/plastic container

aisle hanging from one of those aisle hangers that jut into the

aisle and hang things from stacked clips. It's usually in a plastic

bag-type wrap the size of a small manilla envelope.

Hope this helps!

Another thing to try is muslin from your local fabric store. If you're not

familar with

fabrics, just ask any of the saleslady to help you find muslin. One yard of

45in wide

muslin usually runs about $1.99 per yard and is sometimes on sale for$0.99 per

yard and

you would be able to get several sqaures suitable to line your colindar with.
