Swiss Cheese Made at Home - What Recipe Made the Best Tasting Swiss Cheese? What the judges said...

The first step towards making Swiss cheese at home is knowing which recipe to follow. So Mary Anne made 5 Emmental-style Swiss cheeses and gave them to some of her friends to judge the taste, texture & aroma. How were the recipes different? Which Swiss cheese tasted better than all the rest? Watch the video to see which cheese was voted the best, and which one was disqualified!

Here's an important note from the article, “Strain-Dependent Cheese Spoilage Potential of Clostridium tyrobutyricum” by Lucija Podrzaj, Johanna Burtscher, Franziska Küller, and Konrad J. Domig:

“Clostridium tyrobutyricum, a Gram-positive, anaerobic, spore-forming bacterium, is considered as one of the main causative agents for spoilage of hard and semihard cheeses. … Several clostridial species, mainly Clostridium tyrobutyricum, Clostridium butyricum, Clostridium sporogenes, and Clostridium beijerinckii, have been isolated from blown cheese. The species C. tyrobutyricum is considered to be the primary cause of severe late blowing defects. … Gas is one of the major products of butyric acid fermentation, causing swelling, cracks, slits, and irregular eye formation in hard and semihard cheeses.”

(Extra notes: There are over 164 strains of clostridium!)
