Cambozola is supposed to be a creamy, soft cheese with a mild blue flavor: "supposed to" being the operative words here. Mine was . . . not. However! While this cheese didn't turn out like I wanted it to, it was still perfectly fine (good, even!), and I still learned a-plenty. Some of the best learning happens from failure, so I'm sharing the video anyway. Watch me mess up, and then go and do better - or differently. Whatever!
