Homemade Cheese
Description
Suitable for both holidays and everyday meals. Let's make "Hochland" cheese at home. You will need: sour cream, milk, and cream. Mix all the ingredients and leave in a warm place for 6-7 hours. Then heat the cheese mass over the heat, leave it to "set" again, then transfer it to cheesecloth. Wait for all the whey to drain off. Unwrap the cheesecloth and enjoy the tender creamy cheese. Good luck. Serve with fresh herbs and sauce.
