Cheese is a tasty and he althy product. It is a source of calcium and beneficial trace elements. But the quality of the store product raises many questions. And the prices for cheeses are not the most attractive. So I decided to make my own cheese. Milk, sour cream and lemon juice are all I need to make delicious homemade cheese.

What you need

  • 2L milk;
  • 5 tablespoons of heavy sour cream;
  • 4 tablespoons of lemon juice;
  • glass of water;
  • a teaspoon of s alt.

Cooking

  1. Pour milk into a saucepan and heat over medium heat.
  2. Once the milk is warm, add sour cream and mix well with a wooden spoon.
  3. When the fermentation process begins (the milk starts to break down into cheese and whey), you need to add lemon juice and mix everything well again. Cook for another minute.
  4. Gauze should be folded into 6 layers, wetted and squeezed well, spread in a colander.
  5. In the resulting "sieve" you need to pour the milk mass. Be sure to place some sort of whey collection container under the colander.
  6. When the whey drains, you need to wrap the cheese in a gauze bag and put its ends under pressure. Cheese should be in this suspended state for at least an hour.
  7. Pour s alt into the water and heat on the burner until the latter is completely dissolved.
  8. Cut the pressed feta cheese into cubes or thick slices, put in some container and pour over the brine.
  9. You can start tasting in half an hour.
