- Ingredients
- 1 l milk (at least 3.5% fat content)
- 20 drops Rennet extract
- clean, coarse Linen cloth
- Sieve
- plastic basket
Preparation steps
1.
Slowly heat the milk in a saucepan to 30°C (approximately 85°F). Then add the rennet, remove from the heat and stir 2-3 minutes.
2.
Cover and keep in a warm place at 30°C (approximately 85°F) 4-6 hours (The temperature should be a constant 30°C, otherwise the process will take longer.)
3.
Line a colander with large-meshed cheesecloth and pour in the milk mixture. Drain the whey and then squeeze the curd.
4.
Spoon into 7-ounce cheese molds (or plastic cups) and refrigerate. If necessary, drain any remaining whey and invert the cheese onto plates.
