Ingredients

  • Empty plastic bottle
  • 2 liters of milk
  • Salt
  • 50 milliliters of white vinegar
  • 100 grams of butter
  • 200 grams of mozzarella cheese

To Serve:

  • Bread
  • Tomato
  • Balsamic sauce

Instructions

  • Pour 2 liters of milk into a large pot and heat it until it's almost boiling.
  • Add a pinch of salt and 50 milliliters of white vinegar to the milk. Stir gently.
  • Turn off the heat and let the mixture sit for about 5 minutes. It should curdle during this time.
  • Place a cheesecloth or clean kitchen towel over the top of a plastic bottle and secure it with a rubber band.
  • Carefully pour the curdled milk into the bottle, allowing the whey to drain out. This can take a few minutes.
  • Once most of the whey has drained, remove the cheese from the bottle. It should be firm and ready to use.
  • In a separate pan, melt 100 grams of butter and add 200 grams of mozzarella cheese. Stir until the cheese is melted and well combined.
  • Serve your homemade cheese with bread, sliced tomatoes, and a drizzle of balsamic sauce.
  • Enjoy your quick and delicious homemade cheese! 🧀
