Guest guest Posted March 20, 2011 Report Share Posted March 20, 2011 You can wrap the cheese in a cloth that has been saturated with baking soda. You'd need to experiment some about how to do it exactly ... I did it a long time ago and it worked, but of course I had to brush off the baking soda. I think if the baking soda was dissolved in something a little moist it wouldn't come off so easy.

Guest guest Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 Thanks , I was wondering if the cheese tasted okay with the baking soda? I was also wonderin about using a coating of olive oil on the cheese and then storing it? Thanks GB --- In nutrition , Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 Hm. Olive oil might work nicely too. The baking soda just tastes salty, but it makes a white powder that *looks* like mold, so there is an aesthetic factor there. I never did perfect a methodology .... I would have kept at it if I had kept eating cheese. On Mon, Mar 21, 2011 at 2:05 AM, greatyoga <greatyoga@...> wrote: > Thanks , > > I was wondering if the cheese tasted okay with the baking soda?

Guest guest Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 I have heard if you take a cloth & get it wet with vinegar (not sure if it is acv or distilled sorry) & wipe the block of cheese down with it & it prevents mold from forming on it ________________________________ From: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 21, 2011 Report Share Posted March 21, 2011 I always wrap mine in a white cotton cloth you may get the white dry patches. I use these pieces to melt down in Mac n cheese or something!! On Mar 20, 2011, at 8:51, " greatyoga " <greatyoga@...> wrote: > I buy cheese but don't eat massive amounts of it.

Guest guest Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 Maybe I'll try an experiment. I'll cut a block into 3 sections. Use dry baking soda on one, vinegar on the second and olive oil on the third. All great ideas. Thnaks GB > > > I buy cheese but don't eat massive amounts of it.
