Homemade Cheese from Soured Milk

Have some soured milk left over? Make a delicious homemade cheese! We've forgotten what it's like to buy cheese at the store. We love wholesome food with a minimum of harmful additives, and commercial cheese hardly counts as a wholesome product. Besides, we have little kids, who can definitely use some real cultured dairy — natural and packed with vitamins. The cheese in this recipe comes out quite soft and tender.

  • Set the milk over the heat and bring it to a boil. Meanwhile, pour the soured milk into a separate bowl, add the eggs, and beat with a whisk. The mixture should be fairly thick and smooth. Once the milk boils, turn down the heat and, stirring constantly, pour in the beaten soured-milk mixture. Keep stirring and wait for the whey to separate, then tip the contents of the pot into a sieve. Wait for all the whey to drain off. Add salt to the cheese. You can also add various spices and herbs — go by your own taste and experiment. I usually don't add anything, since my little kids love this cheese and it's better for them to eat it plain. Put the cheese into a mold under a weight overnight. In the morning, take the cheese out of the mold, wrap it in plastic wrap, and put it in the fridge for a couple of hours. Homemade cheese from soured milk is ready! Enjoy!
