Here is another recipe for cheese curds. It's from the back of a bag of them from a creamery in Wisconsin. I haven't actually tried these yet. I will update when I do. I am sure that like other cheese curd recipes, it is not recommended that you substitute regular cheese as it WILL make a mess. String cheese should work instead of cheese curds if necessary, though.
