    The recipe Emmy showed is basically the same way you make paneer for Indian curries or making the dessert called Rasagula. Basically, boil 1 gal milk (no need to monitor temp), add vinegar to precipitate the milk proteins while boiling, turn off heat. Mix. Strain cheese through cheesecloth. Process cheese by squeezing out liquid under a weight for about 1hr. Do NOT knead the cheese as you would for mozzarella or it will become stringy. Instead, make soft balls about half the size of golf balls by rolling pieces lightly between two palms. Let dry a bit for a few hours before using. For curry or saag paneer, add to curry at the end as you would tofu. For the dessert, boil the balls in sugar syrup.

      Try hiding in the attic.
      No attic?
      There's always the tub. Nice if the bath has a chair with pillows [to toss in the tub] and a very compact fridge [for soothing witch hazel and creams, etc. - also a bottle of water or, if it's one of those days, a Guinness. A Keurig is great on the counter if, like me, eyes don't open till coffee hits my "on" button. Can't make it to the kitchen to deal with coffee fixings with eyes closed. I'm exactly 22 steps away from my wake-up to bath and so far I've made it to the coffee every morning while my Chi is still in my bed on my pillow dreaming of Milly next door. But I leave a bit of chicken in his easy to open snack bowl in case he awakes. For the day, after a successful escape, grab the decorative tin from the towel closet that holds a favorite snack mix and Lock the Door. Settle into your [dry] tub and the little Frenchies are outwitted. Maybe.
      Actually my Chi is very determined so during the day I throw some chicken at him. My Chi explores the house never thinking I'm relaxing in the tub [dry] having 30-60 minutes to read or catch up with CZcams or "resting my eyes." My Chi, rescued, loved and adopted has issues- 24/7 velcro boy - and his Vet says he needs to learn to feel secure while alone. He settles and does well but I can only stand 30-60 minutes! It's the small Dogs who would outwit Sherlock Holmes. All the Power Dogs I have adopted took pride in their training and being family. A good two home-cooked meals daily and they felt the exercise, training and play was their bonus. But my little guys rule the house and every breathing thing in it!
      I know- I'm crazy. But I only adopt badly abused Dogs and delight in their healing so I'll take crazy😊

    I love this recipe so much. I’ve done this with the siblings, the niblings, and friends. Always such an amazing feeling of "we made CHEESE!"😅
    We did the washing/kneading/stretching of the cheese in hot water over the stove, just hot enough to melt the cheese curds, but not hot enough to burn. The more you stretch it, the more of that beautiful "string cheese" effect you can achieve, which is so much fun for eating it as a cold cheese.

  • @meversace
    @meversace Před 27 dny +16

    You'll get a better texture if you heat the milk mixture more, then when you strain it it still needs to be hot and then make balls and drop them in very hot water. While they are in the water take one ball at a time out and while still over the water massage the cheese ball dipping it in the hot water every few stretches. Then place the ball in ice water.

    Keep it on the stove at the correct stable temp during the whole process until all the curds are rendered. Try 185 degrees and red wine vinegar and salt later. Best queso fresco ever.

    I use lemon juice when making cheese & use vinegar when I make sour cream. Cheese & sour cream are so easy & so much better when home made. Thanks for sharing Emmy!

    It's quite alright to use expired (not spoiled) milk for this. If it's on the edge, make some cheese. Add in garlic and herbs for a Boursin type spreadable cheese.

    Hi Emmy! I saw just last night that one should put it into some kind of a cheese cloth or nut bag and really spend time squeezing all the liquid out so that it’s basically dry and then it will be exactly like mozzarella. The person doing it also had an error, because he did not squeeze out all the liquid or sufficient liquid. So, he tried again, and voila! he managed to get a perfect mozzarella!

    I make cottage cheese from milk and lemon juice this way. It’s super easy! I’ve never tried heating it and stretching it into mozzarella, though. I might have to give it a try.

    @SeaWasp Před 27 dny +2

    I've definitely curdled milk like that a few times and either made paneer or farmer's cheese (like the old alexfrenchguycooking video), and my folks made it a lot. But to get all the curd out, I bring the milk up to just before it starts to simmer, and then I add prepackaged lemon juice (ie: realemon, or something similar). I add it until I see curd separating from whey. No measurements, and works every time!
    I've never kneaded it into something pliable, though, so I wonder if temperature effects it. Cool video!

    @Janknitz1 Před 27 dny +3

    You can use the same recipe to coagulate the milk and drain it for farmers cheese or press it for homemade paneer.
    I heat the milk and vinegar/lemon juice in my instant pot. 4 minutes at low pressure, then 10 minutes natural pressure release. Drain well, wrap in a square of butter cloth, and press it for about 2 hours.

  • @randominternetprofile8270

    Working the mozzarella in very hot whey, like 180° will help it become silky smooth. I transfer some whey to a smaller pot and keep it at temp, then transfer what i need to the bowl I'm stretching the mozzarella in

    I'd love to see a followup showing various ways to use the whey. I wouldn't want to waste it! Obviously tons of recipes and ideas are available online but I'd enjoy seeing your take on exactly how much is left after this recipe, how easy or hard each thing is to make, any pitfalls we might encounter, how it ends up tasting, how long it keeps, etc.

  • @homesteadgamer1257
    @homesteadgamer1257 Před 18 dny +1

    The pioneers used this method when they wanted or needed cheese for a sudden special occasion while their hard cheese was curing. Modern Mexicans still makes cheese like this, too. It's a good way to use excess milk if you've already started enough hard cheeses and made yogurt or kefir and need something else to do with all that milk. They'd made cottage cheese from it, too.

  • @Ty-rz6xy
