Hello We have 6 milk goats all giving us lots of milk a day. We have been making cheese and freezing it. I would love to find a way to can it so we do not have to use as much power. Anyone have a good canned cheese recipe?
That's a tough one. The heat generated during canning will seperate the oil/milkfat from the rest of the mass, and I suspect the milk solids would curdle.
I'll poke around, see what I can find but I'm not hopeful.

Not canning, but: feta, since it's stored in brine, lasts well. Cheese was designed as a storage food and many last and improve for a very long time. I'd learn about cheeses designed to be aged. I'm pretty sure goat milk, with a few tweaks, can be used for most cheeses. I have no experience with pressure canning, but I assume the heat would destroy cheese.
