Description

This recipe won't take much time. Here is a simple recipe for making Almette cheese at home. You will need sour cream—the main thing is that it should be at least 20% fat. Wrap the sour cream in cheesecloth and place it in the refrigerator. Exactly after 24 hours, when all the whey has drained off, you will get a wonderful creamy cheese very similar to "Almette" cheese. Good luck. The appetizer is ready. Serve immediately.

Instructions

  1. 1

    Step 1

    Step 1

    Take ordinary cheesecloth, fold it into 3–4 layers, and spread your sour cream on it. Fold the cheesecloth into a small pouch and place it in a colander set over a pot so the whey can drain. Put the future cheese in the refrigerator for 24 hours.

    Step 2

    The whey will drain off, and cream cheese will remain in the cheesecloth. The finished cheese turns out tender and very tasty. If desired, you can add sugar and raisins to it, and you'll get a sweet curd snack. And if you add a little salt and herbs, you'll get a wonderful sandwich spread.
