EASY CURDS, Cottage CHEESE, or FARMER’S cheese

Making curds, cottage cheese, or farmer's cheese is a rewarding process that transforms simple ingredients into a fresh, creamy delight. Using just whole milk and a little apple cider vinegar, this rustic method yields a soft, mild cheese perfect for various dishes.

As the milk heats, a calm anticipation builds—the moment when the vinegar is stirred, and the magic happens. The curds form, separating from the whey-like clouds breaking apart in a summer sky. The result is tender curds, soft and malleable, ready to be shaped, salted, and enjoyed in countless ways.

The texture is wonderfully versatile: soft and crumbly for topping salads, firmed into slices for snacking, or blended into spreads. It's a reminder of the beauty in simplicity, a process that connects you to centuries of tradition. There's something almost meditative about creating cheese this way, with a sense of pride when you see the curds come together, knowing you’ve crafted something delicious with your hands.

Whether you're using it to enhance savoury dishes or enjoying it on a warm slice of bread, homemade curds bring a fresh, clean taste that store-bought cheese can’t quite match. It’s more than just cheese; it’s a piece of craftsmanship, a small taste of homemade comfort.
