i'm wondering if anyone has had success making cheese with powdered milk? Mixed with regular store bought, fresh cow or goat milk? Is it feasible? Does it work? Help!!

It's important to have a good tasting powdered milk in the first place as the taste will be magnified in the cheese. If you are making a soft cheese with lots of herbs added to it, this won't be such an issue.

Cheesemaking Supply Outlet in Ohio sells a special dry milk for cheesemaking but it isn't as cheap as the grocery store product.
