  • Heat the milk to 95°F (35°C) and add the yogurt, sour cream, and the enzyme dissolved in a cup of warm water. Heat to 100°F (38°C) and let it sit for about 30 minutes. Then cut the curd into squares, cover, and leave it another 30 minutes. Stir gently. Once the curds turn slightly sticky, pour the mixture into a cheese mold (or a cheesecloth-lined colander), cover with a lid, and set a weight of about 2 lbs (1 kg) on top for a couple of hours. Then salt the cheese wheel generously and tuck it away in a cool cellar (away from the mice — just kidding!). After a week — better yet, a month — it's ready to taste!
