Homemade Cheese in Just 5 Minutes
Why buy cheese when you can make it at home in no time? Here’s how:
Ingredients:
- Empty plastic bottle
- 2 liters of milk
- Salt
- 50 milliliters of white vinegar
- 100 grams of butter
- 200 grams of mozzarella cheese
To Serve:
- Bread
- Tomato
- Balsamic sauce
Instructions:
- Pour 2 liters of milk into a large pot and heat it until it’s almost boiling.
- Add a pinch of salt and 50 milliliters of white vinegar to the milk. Stir gently.
- Turn off the heat and let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes. It should curdle during this time.
- Place a cheesecloth or clean kitchen towel over the top of a plastic bottle and secure it with a rubber band.
- Carefully pour the curdled milk into the bottle, allowing the whey to drain out. This can take a few minutes.
- Once most of the whey has drained, remove the cheese from the bottle. It should be firm and ready to use.
- In a separate pan, melt 100 grams of butter and add 200 grams of mozzarella cheese. Stir until the cheese is melted and well combined.
- Serve your homemade cheese with bread, sliced tomatoes, and a drizzle of balsamic sauce.
Enjoy your quick and delicious homemade cheese!
