Homemade Cheese Recipe (Page 2 ) | July 18, 2025

1. **Heat the Milk**
Pour the milk into a large pot and slowly heat it on medium, stirring occasionally to prevent scorching. Heat the milk to around 180°F (82°C), just before it starts to boil.

2. **Add the Acid**
Turn off the heat and slowly add the lemon juice or vinegar while gently stirring. You’ll notice the milk begins to curdle, separating into white curds and yellowish whey.

3. **Let It Sit**
Allow the mixture to sit undisturbed for about 10 minutes to fully separate.

4. **Strain the Curds**
Line a colander with cheesecloth or a clean kitchen towel. Pour the curdled milk through the colander to drain the whey. Gather the edges of the cloth and gently squeeze out excess liquid.

5. **Season and Shape**
Transfer the curds to a bowl. Add salt to taste and mix gently. For a firmer texture, you can press the cheese by wrapping it in the cloth and placing a weight on top for a few hours.

6. **Enjoy!**
Your fresh homemade cheese is ready to be enjoyed. It’s perfect spread on bread, crumbled over salads, or incorporated into recipes.

#### Tips and Variations:

* **Milk choice:** Using raw or pasteurized milk (not ultra-pasteurized) yields the best curds.
* **Flavor additions:** Mix in herbs, garlic, or spices to customize your cheese.
* **Storage:** Keep your cheese refrigerated and consume within a week for optimal freshness.
