This video completes the series on making feta cheese with raw organic milk.  We hang the curds, salt the blocks, and finally drop the blocks into a brine solution for their final aging before eating.  After 3 days at room temperature the feta is starting to develop some of its flavor.  This cheese ends up dry and crumbly and is a delicious topping for a salad or a pizza.  It can also be used as a condiment on just about anything. It's not quite the same as goat's milk feta, but it's better than any storebought version of cow's milk feta.
