Recipe Ingredients:
- 1 liter full cream milk
- 2 tablespoons white vinegar
- 2 tablespoons butter
👩🍳 How to Make It
Heat the Milk:
In a large pot, heat the milk over medium heat until it just starts to boil. Remove from the heat immediately.
Add the Vinegar:
Stir in the white vinegar and let the mixture sit for a few minutes. The milk will curdle and separate into curds and whey.
Strain:
Using a clean kitchen towel or fine strainer, strain the mixture to separate the curds. Press gently to remove excess liquid.
Blend:
Place the curds in a blender, add the butter, and blend until smooth and creamy.
Tip: For a lighter texture, add a little of the reserved whey and blend again until you reach the desired consistency.
Chill:
Transfer the homemade cream cheese to a container with a lid and refrigerate for a few hours before serving.
