What a fabulous experience for myself and 12 year old grandson!! We were immersed in the joys of creating cheeses in a beautifully set up kitchen area, interspersed with a feast of homemade lunch dishes incorporating the cheeses we were learning about.
12 years ago I attended some of Lyndall's cheese making courses and have been using these skills ever since. Last week I attended her wood-fired pizza and mozzarella course and was reminded just how extensive her knowledge and expertise is. So lucky to have her at Emerald Beach.
My husband Steve and I spent a wonderful afternoon with Lyndall learning how to make Brie and Camembert... the class is run so well, with many laughs along the way... the view sitting around the table while enjoying it was so peaceful... Thank you so much Lyndall.
