Soft Cheese |  Milk/Yogurt Day

In the mood for something savory? This homemade cheese may be just what you need.

1 serving. 10 oz of daily milk allowance.

Ingredients
  • 10 oz whole milk (cow or goat)
  • 1 oz ReaLemon or other zero-calorie lemon juice
  • Seasonings. We used Braggs Organic Sprinkle
  • Salt, to taste
Directions
  • Using a medium pot over medium heat, bring milk to a temperature of 180°F. If you don't have a food thermometer, this is when a slight film forms at the top of the milk.
  • Remove from heat and let stand for 3-5 minutes.
  • Gently stir in the lemon juice and let stand for another 3-5 minutes allowing the curds (milk solids) and the whey (yellow liquid) to separate.
  • Cover a bowl or line a colander with cheesecloth.
  • Pour the separated milk into the cheesecloth.
  • Allow it to drain for a few minutes.
  • Gently squeeze the cheesecloth to eliminate more of the whey.
    • Note, for a creamier consistency allow the cheese to remain fairly wet. For a drier, more crumbly consistency, squeeze out more whey.
  • Remove cheese from cheesecloth.
  • Season, as desired.
  • Serve warm or cold.
  • Enjoy!
