My favorite dish is macaroni and cheese because its name includes both the recipe and the ingredients list. 😂
The joke is taken from the site anekdoty.ru
Greetings to all readers of my channel! My name is Christina and I am very glad to see you on my culinary channel.
✅ Do you like hard cheese? Cook it yourself in just 15 minutes - natural, tasty, creamy, and even with holes and from the most common products. Having tasted this cheese once, you will not want to eat the cheese that is sold in stores. I will tell you all the secrets and nuances of cooking so that you get a delicious cheese.
My husband loves this cheese and says that it is the tastiest in the world 😍😅 Maybe he’s cunning, but I don’t argue with him. The cheese is really amazing. I have been cooking for many years and I don't want to change anything in the recipe. Cheese consists of 4 basic, most common products.
And if you treat your friends and colleagues with such cheese, then I have no doubt that everyone will take the recipe! Checked! 😋
Let's cook already!
Please note that I will leave the list of products in the first pinned comment. And at the end of the article I will also leave a short video recipe, take a look. I promise you will love it! I showed the cheese from different sides and inside, you can clearly see what it is. And if you don't like it, then write in the comments why. I would appreciate that!
First of all, we put a large pot of plain water on the stove, we need to bring the water to a boil.
In the meantime, take a saucepan (large enough to fit into a pot of water). I transfer the cottage cheese to the pan.
Important! 👉 Cottage cheese should be free of vegetable fats and at least 5% fat. I took 9% cottage cheese, which I regularly buy, and I know that it is really made from milk.
I add milk.
Important! 👉 Milk must also be natural and at least 3% fat, I have 3.5-4% fat. I bought farm milk from the store, which has a shelf life of only 48 hours. Do not buy milk that is stored for weeks (there is nothing natural there and cheese will not work).
I put the pot on the stove over medium heat and cook, stirring constantly. It is necessary for the whey to separate from the milk, and the curd mass gathers in a lump. (If it is not clear, then watch my video at the end of the article, everything is clearly visible there).
Look, the mass begins to gather in a lump - and this is a sure sign that our cottage cheese and milk are natural. By the way, excellent product quality check!
The milk has already changed color, it has become yellowish and more transparent - this is whey. At this moment, the curd becomes "stringy" and is collected in one lump. The liquid is about to boil. All! We stop, do not boil. Turn off the stove.
I throw the cheese mass into a colander, there is no need to wait until all the liquid drains.
I put the future cheese back into the saucepan. Even a little liquid remains - this is normal.
And in no case pour out the whey - make delicious pancakes or bread from it.
Now I add salt, butter, soda and mix.
Important! 👉Soda is a must - thanks to it, the cheese will begin to melt. I assure you that you will not feel it in the finished cheese.
I add the egg and mix. (The egg will also not be heard at all in the finished cheese). In principle, you don't need to add an egg, but with it it turns out tastier and the color of yellow cheese.
Just a large pot of water has boiled, we will cook cheese in a water bath.
Important! 👉 This is done so that later you do not have to "scrub" the burnt pan until the evening.
I constantly stir the cheese mass, it should become homogeneous and stretch. This process took me only 8 minutes.
I take any mold, grease it with vegetable oil, put the cheese in it, press it. Scroll through the photo (5 more on the right).
I close the top with cling film so that the cheese does not twist. As soon as it cools down, it's done! We can cut and serve. How do you like this cheese recipe? Cheese yield 240 grams.
