How to make Havarti Cheese.
If you’re looking for a Havarti cheese recipe, you’re in the right place! This delectable Danish delight is such a great everyday cheese. It slices easily, melts well and has a creamy, buttery texture and aroma. It’s a pretty easy cheese making recipe, and I think that once you learn how to make Havarti cheese, you will make it again and again.
Washed curd cheeses, such as Gouda, have a low acid profile, which may not protect from late fermentation from unwanted bacteria, either in the beginning, or later down the road during aging. I recommend that all water used in the cheesemaking process is either boiled and cooled before use, or is distilled. Additional best practices for reducing the possibility of late fermentation include brining and drying the wheel at cave temperatures of 50-55 °F (10-13 C). These best practices may deter unwanted bacteria from getting a foothold in the process.

Happy cheese making!
