Cheese from Clabbered Milk
Description
The appetizer is prepared quickly and simply. Homemade cheese made from buttermilk and milk is a tasty and healthy dish. To prepare it, we need to mix eggs with buttermilk, add this mixture to boiling milk, and wait for the whey to separate. Additions for the cheese can be anything you like and chosen to your taste, or you can do without them altogether—in any case, it will turn out very tasty. For more details, it can be served warm or chilled.
