Cheers, I truly cant recall what I put in it! Daft I know, I am now writing down what i am making.
I know I paid very close attention to the salt and cure #2 level, after that I kept it very simple, there's a few fennel seeds possibly a splash of wine but can't see any black pepper. No starter culture in this one.
It tastes nice with quite interesting flavours coming through, very different to my shop bought which has more interesting flavours and is very hard. This is only 6 weeks old, maybe once its gone very hard it may develop more flavour. But its not quite what I am aiming for, but a happy start.
I am just very happy I have something edible and I will start to learn about the flavours, now I am recording what I am doing.
