Village cottage cheese

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 2 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   To make village cottage cheese, you only need milk.

2. STEP 2

   

   Pour homemade milk into a jar and leave for 2 days. During this time, the sour cream will rise; it can be collected in a separate container.

3. STEP 3

   

   For convenience, pour the milk clot into a 3-liter jar. Take a large saucepan, put a towel on the bottom and place the jar. Pour water into the pan so that it completely covers the curd. Bring the water to a boil and turn off the heat. Cover the pan with a lid and leave for 1 hour.

4. STEP 4

   

   As a result, the curds and whey will separate.

5. STEP 5

   

   Place the cottage cheese on cheesecloth.

6. STEP 6

   

   Hang the cottage cheese for 1-2 hours to drain the whey.

7. STEP 7

   

   Transfer the cottage cheese to a bowl and place in the refrigerator for storage. Bon appetit!

I often make homemade cottage cheese using different cooking options. I was very interested in your recipe for homemade country cottage cheese. I haven’t made cottage cheese in a jar before and decided to try it. I used fresh homemade cow's milk. I managed to collect sour cream (for nettle soup), and the whey came in handy (for bread), and the curd came out great. Just 3 in 1! The recipe is very simple and straightforward, I prepared it without any changes. I weighed the cottage cheese in gauze for 1 hour so that it would not be too dry. The result was a very tasty, soft and tender cottage cheese. I used it to prepare the filling for pancakes. I liked the recipe for making village cottage cheese in a jar, it’s simple and accessible. Good recipe! Delicious and healthy cottage cheese! Thank you!

Thank you very much for the recipe for homemade country cottage cheese. The curd turned out very tender and soft. And the taste is such that it cannot be compared with store-bought. I will do it again, because it is something incredibly amazing!
