Quick & Easy Homemade Cheese Recipe
Ingredients:
✔ 1 liter (4 cups) whole milk (fresh or store-bought)
✔ 2 tablespoons white vinegar or lemon juice
✔ ½ teaspoon salt
Instructions:
1️⃣ Heat the Milk
- Pour the milk into a pot and heat over medium heat until it almost starts boiling (about 80-85°C / 175-185°F).
2️⃣ Add Vinegar or Lemon Juice
- Stir in the vinegar or lemon juice and reduce heat to low.
- The milk will start curdling immediately—this is the cheese forming!
3️⃣ Strain the Cheese
- Line a strainer with a clean cloth or cheesecloth and pour the mixture through.
- Let it drain for 5-10 minutes.
4️⃣ Season & Shape
