Recipe type: Cheese and Wine
Cuisine: Cypriot
Ingredients
  • 2 litres fresh full cream milk
  • 4 tablespoons white vinegar or lemon juice
Method
  1. Prepare a fine mesh strainer and line it with a muslin cloth.
  2. Alternatively you could use the inexpensive cheese moulds that you can buy.
  3. Bring the milk to the boil and when it starts to froth and just before it starts to rise and bubble over, add the vinegar or lemon juice.
  4. The curds and whey will start to separate, over a low heat.
  5. Once the mixture has split, using a slotted spoon collect the white curds that start to float to the top of the pot.
  6. Add the curds to the lined strainer or cheese mould.
  7. Yields two 15mc x 7cm rounds
