How to make Gouda

Gouda originates from the Netherlands and is a washed curd cheese, similar in some ways to Edam. It is pressed, brined, then waxed for ageing and matures in about 6 weeks. It has a subtle flavour and has low acid development during ageing.

This is the tutorial that everyone has been asking for! After many requests, I've had another attempt at Gouda, this time with a better recipe. I am happy to report that it appears to be a success, but the taste test will fully determine that.
