Steps

10 minutes + brine time

1

First, heat cow's milk until hotter than warm(upto 50°C). Our cleaned finger when dipped,should feel the milk hot but yet touchable. Switch off gas. Do not boil the milk.
2

Add in vinegar solution as needed,and mix gently. Slowly, the milk will begin to curdle and the cheese and whey will separate completely.
3

Now strain this mixture using a clean cotton cloth. Note not to discard the whey water. Refresh the cheese with plain water. Hang the cheese cloth to drain off excess water.
4

Cover and place some weight on the cheese to drain well. After an hour the cheese will form like a block. Knead this cheese for 2-3 minutes to smoothen it.
5

Form a proper square of the cheese. Cut into desired shape. Now take required quantity of cooled whey water in a bowl. Add in salt and mix to dissolve it.
6

Now add in the soft cheese square pieces in the salted whey water.
7

Store the cheese bowl in fridge for 2 days at least before use. A highly nutritious,hygienic, pocket-friendly HOMEMADE FETA CHEESE IS READY. The last picture shows the FETA CHEESE AFTER 2 DAYS. Enjoy with any salad, bread or as it is with family and friends. Happy Cooking😊!!
