Just made this. I was a little sceptical after rinsing but added cream and the mixture was transformed. Used skim milk / white vinegar to make.
I added a little more salt to taste and am enjoying the creamy delicious taste.
Thanks for an amazing recipe. So much better than store bought and way cheaper too!
Looks great it made 375g. What to do with the whey?
Wow mine looked like ricotta but after the rinse broke up into lots of little pieces and added cream, salt and pepper and some chives. Homemade goodness! Thank you
Made today - wish I'd known before how simple and fabulous this recipe is! There's been a shortage of cottage cheese here in Nsw and I no longer have to miss out. Did I mention how much cheaper it is to make? One happy lady here.
Made today with 2litres of long life full cream. It's perfect and made 400gm. After reading the comments I was surprised with how much I got. Will be adding this to my faves ♥
Omg. Big thank you for your recepie. Amazing. ❤❤❤.
I made this today with full cream milk, it turned out perfect and tastes delicious!
Hi just wondering if you found this was more like ricotta or just like cottage cheese? I made a batch today but used full cream milk. Maybe I should try the skim and apple cider vinegar ?
I made this and whilst it's lovely it turned out more like ricotta. What am I doing wrong?
I used light long life milk and it turned out great! I do like mine a bit saltier, so will try adding more salt next time. Made 280g cottage cheese, which was a perfect amount for a recipe I was making.
