Optional Add-Ins for Flavor:
- Fresh herbs (like basil, thyme, or chives)
- Black pepper or chili flakes
- A drizzle of honey for a sweet touch
How to Make It
- Heat the Milk
- In a saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until it just starts to simmer (don’t let it boil). Stir occasionally to prevent scorching.
- Add Acid & Curdle
- Remove the pan from heat and slowly stir in the vinegar or lemon juice. Within seconds, the milk will start curdling and forming small cheese curds.
- Strain the Cheese
- Pour the mixture through a cheesecloth or fine sieve to separate the curds from the whey. Let it drain for 1-2 minutes for a softer texture or longer for firmer cheese.
- Season & Serve
- Transfer the fresh cheese to a bowl, add salt, and mix well. You can also stir in herbs or spices for extra flavor.
Ways to Enjoy Your Fresh Cheese
- Spread it on toast or crackers for a quick snack.
- Use it in salads for a fresh, creamy touch.
- Stuff it into omelets or pasta for extra richness.
- Make a dip by blending it with olive oil and garlic.
