Ricotta Cheese
Ingredients Yield 2 cups 1/2 gallon Whole Milk
1/3 cup Lemon Juice or Distilled White Vinegar
Optional 1 tsp Salt
Instructions
Pour the milk into a pot and warm gradually to 95°C. The milk will get foamy and start to steam; remove it from heat if it starts to boil.
Remove the milk from heat. Pour in lemon juice or vinegar and salt. Stir gently to combine.
Let the pot of milk sit undisturbed for 10 minutes. After this time, the milk should have separated into clumps of milky white curds and thin, watery, yellow-coloured whey. If you still see a lot of un-separated milk, add another tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar and wait for a few more minutes.
Set a strainer over a bowl and line the strainer with our muslin bag. Scoop the curds out of the pot with a slotted spoon and transfer them to the strainer. Drain the curds until it reaches the consistency to your liking.
Use right away or keep refrigerated in an airtight container for up to a week.
