Cheese Ingredients

2 cups Milk1 tbs White Vinegar1/2 tsp Celtic sea salt1 tbs Butter (optional)

Method

Cheese Making Directions

Prepare the Milk

In a saucepan, heat the milk over medium heat until it reaches about 190°F (88°C), stirring occasionally to prevent it from scorching.

Add Vinegar

Once the milk is heated, remove it from the heat and slowly stir in the white vinegar. Let it sit for about 5 minutes. The milk will curdle and separate into curds and whey.

Strain the Curds

Using a fine-mesh strainer or cheesecloth, carefully strain the curds from the whey. Rinse the curds under cold water to remove excess vinegar.

Season the Curds

Transfer the curds to a bowl and add salt. If desired, mix in butter for a creamier texture. Stir until well combined.

Chill and Serve

Refrigerate the cheese for at least 30 minutes before serving. Enjoy it as a spread or on your favorite dishes!
