Fromagina Starter Culture
Description
Fromagina starter culture was developed by Bob & Ricki Carroll. It is a cross between Fromage Blanc and Mascarpone. Fromagina is excellent in cooking or served by itself as a delightfully, creamy spread. This is an easy cheese to start with, we highly recommend it for both beginners and advanced cheesemakers alike.

Cheese for X-mas!!!
I just wanted to thank you SOOOO much for the great products you sell, the directions are great too and sales people so accommodating. I first learned about you at the Hancock Shaker Village Museum in MA. I had been wanting to make cheese since before I went on vacation in the town nearby, Becket. But when I got to the Shaker Village I bought a cheese and yogurt book. Later when I went to the cheese making area of the village, the actors gave your catalog to me and the rest of the vacation and all year until last X-mas all I asked for or talked about was cheese! Finally Xmas came and I got the Basic Hard Cheese Kit and the Fromagina Culture. I have done the Fromagina so far and it was sooooo good. PS I am 12.
kosher and Halal
I was wondering if your fromagina have kosher and or halal certificates Regards Barry
Light and yummy
This is my favorite soft cheese. Super easy to make and very quick too. I use whole Jersey milk, and allow the cream to separate for two lovely layers - the cream makes a smooth rich buttery layer, and the milk makes a lighter, brighter tasting layer - both are perfect for dipping or spreading on toast.
Fromagina
Another simple and easy cheese to make - that is if you use this culture!
The best!!!
The only thing better than the fromage blanc is this! So smooth and delicious- perfect for crepes and filled coffecakes...yum!
