How to Make Cheese With the Most Protein
Ingredients:
- 1 gallon of milk (preferably whole)
- 1/4 cup of vinegar (white or apple cider)
- Salt to taste
Directions:
-
Pour the milk into a large pot and heat it over medium heat. Stir gently until it warms up but does not boil.
-
Once the milk is warm (around 190°F or 88°C), slowly stir in the vinegar. You will see the milk curdling as it separates into curds and whey.
-
Remove the pot from heat and let it sit for about 10-15 minutes to let the curds firm up.
-
Using a slotted spoon, scoop out the curds and place them in a fine-mesh strainer lined with cheesecloth. Let the curds drain for about 30 minutes.
-
Once drained, transfer the curds to a bowl. Add salt to taste and mix well.
-
Your cheese is now ready! You can enjoy it fresh or store it for later.
