Ingredients
✨4 cups full fat milk
✨1 cup fresh cream
✨Pinch of salt
✨3 tbsp vinegar
Method
1. In a saucepan, set over medium heat, pour milk and cream and heat till it becomes warm.
2. Once it is warm, add salt and vinegar. You’ll notice that the milk and cream will start to curdle and separate. Take it off the heat at this stage.
3. Place a muslin cloth over a large sieve, set over a bowl and pour the mixture onto it. Let all the extra whey water drain and collect in a bowl.
4. Take the cheese from the muslin cloth and place in a blender jar. Blend till a smooth texture is achieved.
* If you feel it isn’t smooth enough, add the whey water 1 tbsp at a time and blend again for 15 seconds.
5. Once the desired smoothness is achived, place it in a container and cling wrap it to prevent it from drying.
Refrigerate for about 30 mins and your homemade cream cheese is ready to be used.
Tips and Tricks✨
1. Only use full-fat milk for this recipe.
2. Instead of vinegar, you can also use lemon juice to curdle the milk.
3. If you feel, the texture of cream cheese while blending is dry, you can use little whey water to make it a creamier texture.
4. To set the cream cheese in a block like I did, use a small baking dish or any small mould, line it with parchment paper and set it in it. Also don’t forget to cover it otherwise it will dry out.
