It really depends on what you want to make. For a beginner, I would suggest this basic goat cheese. 8 cups whole goats milk, 2 tbsp plain yogurt. 2 tsp salt 2 tsp sugar. Heat on the stove at medium heat until it just starts to bubble NOT BOIL. Stirring every minute or so. Don't let it stick to the bottom. If you have a thermometer you want your milk to be about 195 F. Once the temp is right pour in 1/4 cup vinegar. Whichever kind you have . Take it off the heat and walk away for about 15 minutes. When you come back you should be able to see the curd separated from the whey. Spoon it out into cheese cloth or an old sheet. tie the corners and let it hang for an hour. when its done dripping your cheese is ready to eat. You can eat it like this or stir in what ever kind of seasoning you like. I use this cheese in lasagna or sprinkled over a salad. Mom makes stuffed shells.

place two cups of milk in the saucepan, slowly bringing the milk to a boil while stirring constantly. It is very important to constantly stir the milk or it will burn. Turn the burner off once the milk is boiling, but leave the saucepan on the element or gas grate. Add 4 teaspoons vinegar to the boiling milk, at which point the milk should turn into curds and whey. Stir well with spoon and let it sit on the element for 5-10 minutes. Pass the curds and whey through cheesecloth or a handkerchief to separate the curds from the whey. Press the cheese using the cloth to get most of the moisture out. Open the cloth and add a pinch of salt if desired. Mix the cheese and salt and then press again to remove any extra moisture. Put the cheese in a mold or just leave it in a ball type form. Refridgerate for a while before eating.

Cheese is the product of pasteurizing milk, acquired from a cow or other animal such as a goat, and allowed to cure. This means that it drys, safely, and becomes the cheese we all know and love. You have to be careful which brand you buy as some brands use rats milk to make their cheeses!
