Prepare the Initial Mixture: First, using a blender, combine the milk, cornstarch, butter, and salt. Blend for 2 to 3 minutes until the mixture is smooth.
Cook the Mixture: Next, pour the mixture into a large pot, add the chopped or grated mozzarella cheese, and cook over medium heat. Stir continuously to avoid lumps. Continue stirring until the mixture thickens and reaches a smooth consistency. It’s important to cook well to remove any raw cornstarch taste.
Mold the Cheese: While still hot, pour the mixture into the prepared molds. Press and level the top with a spoon to remove any air bubbles.
Cooling and Storage: Allow the cheese to cool at room temperature for a few minutes, then place it in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 hours until it is firm.
Unmold and Serve: Once firm, remove the cheese from the molds, slice, and serve. It’s perfect for sandwiches, snacks, or melting in other recipes.
