How to make a hard cheese from sour cream and milk at home.

For the preparation of home-made cheese, it is best to use dairy products of domestic production. As a result, the output of the finished cheese will be much larger and will taste better. Take the fat cow’s milk, pour into a comfortable saucepan with a thick bottom. Send the container to the fire. Stir, boil. In the boiling milk, pour the salt and mix immediately until dissolved. The amount of salt can be varied to your liking.

By the way, milk can be used not only cow, but also goat.

While the milk is on the stove, prepare the remaining important products. In a deep container, add thick sour cream with a large percentage of 20-30 percent. Sour cream should be fresh. For homemade sour cream, beat homemade chicken eggs. The yellow yolk, the more saturated the finished cheese. Take the whisk, hand or electric, and whisk it well.

A homogeneous sour-egg mass should be formed.

Reduce the flame of the burner to a minimum, so that the milk can hardly be heard. Constantly interfering with a small trickle, pour the egg mass into a saucepan with milk. It is better to pour the egg mass not quickly, you can even in small portions. While stirring, keep on fire.

Approximately, in the 3-4th minute, cheesy flakes of small size will start to form.

We continue from time to time to mix, approximately, 5-7 minutes. Further larger clots are formed, the serum is separated. At this stage, turn off the fire.

Prepare, in advance, a colander and gauze in several layers. Throw away the curd clots and wait 3-5 minutes to glass the whey. At this step, you can add chopped greens or any spices, at your discretion.

Collect gauze in a pouch and tie a knot from above to keep the cheese inside. Put a curd between the two boards. At the top, set the weight and leave for 5-6 hours.

You can also use an ordinary plastic box with holes at the bottom, for the outflow of whey. Tampen the curd mass, from above install the load.

Homemade cheese from sour cream and milk is ready. Keep the home product in the refrigerator for no more than three days. Bon Appetit!
