It is necessary
-
- sour cream
- milk
- sugar
Instructions
Step 1
To get 100 grams of curd in the end, take 150-200 ml of fresh milk. If the child is very small, then it is better to boil the milk first and let it cool slightly. Unboiled should be slightly warmed up in a microwave oven or over a fire.
Step 2
Take a small glass jar, wash thoroughly and place two tablespoons of sour cream on the bottom. In order for the cottage cheese to turn out to be more tender and soft, sour cream should be chosen with a lower fat content. The best option is 20 percent.
Step 3
Pour the sour cream with cooked milk in a 1: 3 ratio. Without stirring, put the jar in a warm place for 10-12 hours. In winter, you can put the container directly on the battery. In summer, milk clotting takes less time - 5-6 hours.
Step 4
Wait for the milk to curdle and thicken. The resulting mass must be put directly in a jar in a small saucepan and boiled in a water bath. It is necessary that the water in which your curd will languish is slightly more than the consistency in the jar. Cooking time is one hour. When the curd mass in the jar settles, and a cloudy broth forms on the surface, it's time to turn off the gas.
Step 5
Remove the jar from the pot and let cool slightly. Do not wait for the curd mass to cool completely, otherwise the curd will be hard. Then strain through a sieve or cheesecloth, draining all unnecessary water. Sprinkle the curd lightly with sugar. He's ready.
