NMCG is offering another one of our exclusive, hands-on intensive cheesemaking workshops where you will learn to turn gently pasteurized goat milk into delicate, Geotrichum mold-ripened goat cheese pyramids.

This is not a demonstration. This is a hands on learning experience in a state of the art demo kitchen.

In New Mexico, goat dairies are thriving because goats are hardy, easy to keep, and perfectly suited to our high-desert landscape. While goat cheese is delicious and easy to digest, some of these specific mold-ripened varieties are so fragile they are nearly impossible to transport. If we don’t learn to make them here, we simply won’t have access to them.

Over two days, you will:
• Master the art of Geotrichum inoculation and hand-ladling.
• Leave with your own finished cheese (~$25 retail value).
• Take home your own pyramid mold, cultures, and rennet to keep making at home.
• Gain access to our online community to share your future cheese successes (and failures!).

We’ll be learning in the state-of-the-art Barelas Community Kitchen, located in the most historic village in the ABQ metro area. It’s an area rich in Hispanic and Indigenous culture, just steps from the famed Barelas Coffee House and the Railyards Market.

Cost: $125

Note: This is a two-day commitment—the cheese needs time to set so you can safely transport it home.

Dates: May 16 (10am-3pm) & May 17 (10am-12pm)

Spots are limited to keep this intimate. Link in bio to grab your spot today!

Still thinking about the incredible flavors from last week’s Comté tasting!
We had such a fantastic time pairing the complex, nutty notes of aged Comté with the cinematic magic of *Vingt Dieux* at the CNM International Film Festival. It was the perfect way to celebrate the deep traditions of Jura cheesemaking and the art of storytelling.
A huge thank you to Suzanne Buck and everyone who joined us at Central New Mexico Community College to celebrate food, film, and community. Also want to shout out comte_usa for covering the rights to the movie for the event. There is nothing quite like sharing a sensory experience that connects us to the land and the craft.
Stay tuned for more upcoming events where we explore the delicious intersection of culture and fermentation!
