Hi Katie,
I had a lot of fun finding the savory ones just for you.

Thanks, R! :)
My mom is all fired up to try them, too. DH is not as thrilled, unfortunately. He's picky like that.
Let me know how it goes, I'll have to live recklessly through you ;) DH did not take too well to the idea of savory cheesecake. I was looking for cheesecake recipes and he got all excited about the prospect of a one. When I mentioned savory his face fell. lol "Cheesecake is supposed to be sweet," he says.
How'd the yogurt cheesemaking go?
I have made multiple batches of yo-cheese, always using store-bought whole cow's milk yogurt. I usually make it middle eastern style, with garlic, lemon juice and cumin, and I LOVE it. I will make it for years to come!
You know, I heard tell of using powdered milk sprays for scale. It just came to mind that while dripping cheese, there is a lot of milky stuff which is still in the whey. I wonder how it would be to use the whey as a bug spray. Off to research!
Oh and concrats on the cheese, next try making your own with a little store bought as a culture and whole milk. It's a lot cheaper in the long run. DD and I just stuck our jars in the fish tank and sure enough, in a day I had yogurt! Tried it on the heater register and got cottage cheese though :S
