Steps

15 minutes

1

Pour the milk into a medium saucepan. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it comes to a boil.
2

Once the milk boils, remove from heat.
3

After boiling, turn off the heat and let the milk sit without stirring. Add the vinegar and stir well. Turn the heat back on and let it cook for 10 minutes. You’ll notice the milk separating into curds and whey—this means the cheese is forming.
4

After 10 minutes, turn off the heat and remove the pot from the stove. Strain the mixture through the cheesecloth to separate the curds (cheese) from the whey (liquid).
5

This is what the cheesecloth should look like.
6

This is how the cheese looks while being strained and separated from the liquid.
7

After straining, sprinkle salt to taste and mix until well combined.
8

Transfer the cheese to a suitable container, press it down gently, and refrigerate until it firms up.
9

This is the leftover whey after straining the cheese.
10

Cut the cheese into pieces and serve.
