The Benefits of Eating Raw Cheese
Where in the world can you get hold of raw cheese?
Not in Australia, that’s for sure.
Unless you make your own that is.

So what’s so special about eating raw cheese? Well it’s the flavour that you noticed first. When chomping into a piece of cheese made from organic, raw milk, you really taste the difference! There is a certain complexity about raw cheese that is noticed straightaway after that first bite; and then you know you’re onto something good.

Flavour is the first stage of experiencing the way cheese was meant to be. Another bonus is that it’s actually good for you. Healthy, organic, raw milk is very beneficial to your health and it adds good bacteria to your inner health as well as its own package deal of digestive enzymes. makingcheese02Raw cheese abounds in enzymes that actually help to digest the fats and proteins in the cheese. When the food you eat has abundant bacteria and enzymes, then the digestive system is not over taxed. More blood is available to the brain instead being drawn down to the stomach and with all that digesting going on, the help of all those enzymes just makes you feel good.
Most of us suffer from depleted digestive enzymes and healthy gut flora because of the modern age we live in, and consequently our health is compromised for it. People often complain about feeling sluggish and lacking energy. This is because we are chronically short on healthy gut flora and digestive enzymes, as the food we eat is mostly dead.
How do you get these life-giving raw dairy products?
You make them at home in your kitchen!

If you eat yoghurt made from a live culture you will also boost your gut flora and build up your immune system. The yoghurt you buy probably has too low a bacterial count to start with to do you much good, so making your own will add to the billions of beneficial bacteria that are so necessary to good health. Supplementing your diet with kefir will also give you a definite edge in the stake for good health. Eat only butter made from raw fermented cream, and have kefired cream on top of your fruit salad! Enjoy food again as it was meant to be.

makingcheese12You won’t have a cholesterol problem when you eat raw milk products and you also assimilate far more calcium from the milk. People enjoyed excellent health on raw dairy products for thousands of years. Until we pasteurised and homogenized our milk, dairy foods were always regarded as essential food for good health. I think we got it wrong somewhere along the line!

This one day workshop will teach you by demonstration and hands on experience how to produce your own dairy products at home. There is plenty of sampling of the home made food covered in the workshop so you can become familiar with raw, fermented, home made food. All participants will receive a handbook with the information covered on the day and cultures and starters are also available at the end of the workshop. The cost is $75 per person and bookings will need to be made by contacting Elisabeth Fekonia.
If you can gather fifteen people or more I will come out to you anywhere in South East Queensland and conduct a workshop on how to make your own home made cheese.
