Ingredients

• 8 cups organic whole milk (3.8% MF)
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 5 tbsp vinegar

Preparation

Step 1

In large heavy-bottomed saucepan, heat milk with salt over low heat, stirring often, until temperature on digital rapid-read thermometer registers 203 F (95 C), about 40 minutes.

Add vinegar; stir slowly 3 times. Remove from heat and let stand for 20 minutes.

With slotted spoon, gently skim off curds and place in sieve lined with damp double-thickness cheesecloth. Let drain for 30 minutes. Transfer to serving bowl.
