How To Cold-Smoke Cheese

I use a commercially available smoker,
slightly modified, to
cold-smoke cheese. I put a couple of wooden braces across the top of my
top loading smoker, and put the grill bracket on top of that so the drip
pan is a few inches above the top of the smoker. I just use the box the
unit came in, placed upside down over the top of the grill bracket-- and
smoke the cheese for about an hour and a half. One thing is important:
let the cheese sit out in the open air for about twenty minutes before
you wrap it- this lets it harden a little and it will tend to last
longer in storage
