After learning about cheese for several weeks, today the girls helped me make (and of course, eat) le fromage! We heated du lait de vache, added du vinaigre, watched it curdle, and then strained it through une étamine. It was simple and délicieux.
Here is a link to the recipe in case anyone wants to try their hand at cheesemaking at home! http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ina-garten/homemade-ricotta-recipe.html.
Le lait se réchauffe
Le caillé et le petit-lait
Finalement, le fromage !
This year's Tinker and Techxploration was a lot of fun for grades Kindergarten through 5th grade! Students explored a variety of stations such as: Leap Motion, Beam, Makey Makey, Alexa Dance Party, MakeUp Genious, SnapChat, Engineering the Tallest Tower, and more. The girls even were able to look at and ask questions about Teslas! A special thank your to all of the parent volunteers who made this day possible!
