2. Sour Cream / Creme Fraiche and Whole Milk Buttermilk
2. Sour Cream / Creme Fraiche and Whole Milk Buttermilk
3. Cultured Butter and Buttermilk
4. Clabbered Milk and Cheese
5. Heritage Yogurt
6. Greek Yogurt
7. Kefir and Kefir Cheese
8. Kefir Cream and Kefir Ice Cream
9. Ricotta* and Soft Cheese
10. Cottage Cheese
11. Feta Cheese
12. Middle Eastern Fresh Cheese
13. Queso Fresco Cheese
14. Fresh Cheddar Cheese
15. Traditional Mozarella Cheese*
16. Propagating Mother Cultures
Is that list fabulous or what? Just knowing how to make the different kinds of yogurt make this worth the small fee for the course, but then add all the cheeses. And Creme Fraiche! Do you know how hard that is to find in small town stores? It's not like you can just buy it in bulk and freeze it. Can you tell I'm excited?
The course officially starts on February 1st, but because it's a self-paced on-line course, you can start when you're ready. And if you need to take a week off, that's okay, too. All you need is your computer and the supplies for the class itself.
So, I know you want to know how much it costs and where can you get more information. Just visit the GNOWFGLINS eCOURSE information page by clicking HERE and you'll find out all about it. There are actually 3 classes you can take and 3 different membership plans. The Cultured Dairy and Basic Cheese class is the newest of the three, but check out the other two while you're there. I loved the Fundamentals class and I still plan to take the Sour Dough class. Just as soon as I take the dairy class!
If you're really serious about getting back to basics, this is it! Who's going to join me?

Well I am going to check this out...thanks
ReplyDeleteI made a rather involved reply and then don't think I hung around long enough to enter the verification code. If there's already a reply from me can you delete this?
ReplyDeleteI have this on my current To Do List. I really want to take ALL of them, Fundamentals, Sourdough and of course this new one, but I want to be a good steward of both money and time. I talked this over with my husband yesterday and he thinks I should go ahead and schedule the classes into my days and sign up for the mid level annual membership. I want to also, but last night I looked at an old prayer journal and saw that it was full of me asking God to bless what I chose to do, rather than asking Him what I can do to be in His will, and thus be blessed. So, I'm waiting for an answer! I like the savings of the annual plan, and I'm sure they will keep coming out with more wonderful classes, but will I stick with it? :-) My thought is to sit down with my calendar later today and see if I can pencil in classes on a regular basis, AND find ways to occupy my 5 year old son while I take the class. There also needs to be the follow through/practice of what I learned to do. I think it's all great stuff to know and use, but does that mean I'll follow through?
PS-Love the new banner!
Kelly, what's neat about Wardeh's classes is you can watch the video in one sitting - anywhere from 5 - 15 minutes usually (at least on the fundamentals class from what I remember), then you can download the reading and do that at a later time if you want. Finally, when you're ready during the week, you can actually practice the thing your learning. So it's not like a class where you have to block off one large chunk of time. There are also audios I believe. I found that since we ate whatever it was I was making, it eliminated one of the meals or enhanced one of the meals I was making, so that time is just regular kitchen time anyway.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Amy. I took the water kefir class when it was pay as you go, as well as one other that escapes me at the moment. I love the format, style, etc, I just want to be sure I'll do the work if I pay for the membership. It's certainly a bargain, but not if I don't use it. I could probably get my 5 year old involved on some of them.
ReplyDeleteKelly,
ReplyDeleteI took both of Wardeh's ecourses and I can't say enough good things. So many people on the forum speak about how involved their young children are in the class. The kids love watching the videos and helping out. Some even use the ecourse material to complement their home school curriculum. The sourdough videos often feature Erin, another teacher, and her very small, adorable children working together in the kitchen and enjoying the fruits of their labor. I don't gain a thing from recommending Wardeh. I just feel she has transformed the way I look at food and feeding my family and hope that others can experience the blessings I have received by participating in the courses. I am so excited for the dairy course!
Katie, thanks for your input. I really do want to sign up for membership and take the classes, I don't need to be talked into that. I just want to be sure that I can set dedicated time aside for it, and that my son won't be a distraction. He likes to help in the kitchen, and he likes to watch vidoes on the computer, so I may be better off including him than occupying him some other way.
ReplyDeleteA second delay was the prayer journal full of "I wants" and asking God to bless it. I want to take enough time to ensure God's in this plan before I start. Your comment seems to support moving forward. Thanks!
Amy~
ReplyDeleteI would love to be a part of this but as I have a dial-up internet connection, I am unable to watch video! This is really crimping my style! :~P Hopefully, one day in the not too distant future, I will have a more effective connection to take a wonderful class like this!
I will be anxiously waiting your updates and progress!
Blessings!
